Do you have a background in gymnastics? Have you never even tried a roly-poly but want to learn? Want to find a place to develop your parkour/calisthenics skills? Welcome to Uni of Leeds Gymnastics Society – we are the society for you! Chalk up, tighten those grips, and get ready to soar through the air like never before! 

Who can join?

At Uni of Leeds Gymnastics, we firmly believe that gymnastics is an inclusive sport, open to individuals of all skill levels and backgrounds. This past year alone we have had members from Acro, Aerobics, Teamgym, Tumbling, Parkour and Dance who have all enjoyed being able to train what they are used to as well as try something new. Together, we create an atmosphere of encouragement and achievement which has seen us nominated for Club of the Year for three years running.

Training

We train three a week at a nearby facility with top-notch equipment, including beams, bars, vault, rings, trampolines, and more. Our relaxed sessions offer the option to work on the coached stations for extra guidance or explore the rest of the gym to focus on your desired skills.

Tuesday 8:15 - 9.45pm (Meet outside Parkinson’s Steps at 7.35pm)

Wednesday 2 - 3.30pm (Meet outside Parkinson's Steps at 1.20pm)
