Parent and Me - Classes for Babies
These classes cater for babies aged from 8 weeks to approximately 18 months who are, of course, accompanied by a parent or carer throughout the session. The emphasis during these classes is for the child to experience basic movements and learn to recognise shapes, colours and textures. The classes also provide a valuable opportunity for the parent and child to bond through spending quality time together outside of the home.
Call or email us to reserve your place for a term or just turn up on the day.

Tiger Tots - Pre School Classes
We are proud to offer Tiger Tots pre school gymnastics classes at the Norfolk Academy. The classes are structured and run by our Pre-School Head Coach Tracy Appleby. They provide an excellent introduction to physical activity for children from approximately 18 months up to school age.
Tiger Cubs classes are for the younger children or those starting out. For these classes the child is accompanied by a parent or carer throughout. Once a child gains in confidence and independence, usually around age 3, they can move on to the Roaring Tigers classes where they are unaccompanied and start to participate in basic gymnastic movements and games on the gymnastics equipment.

Recreational Classes
For school aged children we offer recreational classes, grouped in age bands where the emphasis is on safe learning and fun. Children in these classes usually participate for enjoyment and the physical exertion. They work on all of the gymnastics equipment developing co-ordination, strength, balance, stamina and flexibility. All children in these classes have the opportunity to work towards British Gymnastics' and TNAG's own award schemes if they wish to do so. We also believe that gymnastics, as one of the foundation sports upon which all other sports are based, is a very beneficial additional activity for children who do, or ultimately wish to, specialise in another sport.

Elite Development Squads
Girls from the pre-school and recreational classes and those identified at our Talent Identification Days who show the necessary potential will be invited to join our Elite Development Squad. These squads primarily cater for girls aged 5-8 although "late starters" are also catered for.
Girls in these classes are prepared over a 2-3 year period for competitive gymnastics. They train between 2 and 4 times per week.
Competition Squads
Our competition squads are made up of dedicated and talented athletes who represent TNAG in gymnastics competitions at varying levels. Membership of the Competition Squads is by invitation only. Gymnasts normally enter the squads after completing their time in the Elite Development Squad. New gymnasts wishing to trial for the competition squad should telephone to make an appointment for a trial session.
Adult Classes
For those aged 16 plus we offer weekly adult classes. Some of those attending are former gymnasts who want to keep up their skill level other are beginners who have always wanted to give the sport a try. Qualified coaches are on hand to offer advice and guidance for participants of all levels.

Personal Tuition
If your child has missed some training time due to holiday or illness, is struggling with a particular skill which needs special attention or simply wants to put some extra work in, personal tuition is the perfect option. This is a one on one (or one on two if you want to share the session between friends or siblings) session with a coach of your choice who will work with the child to a programme to be discussed with you in advance. The perfect way to get the edge! Prices vary dependant upon session length and tutor.
