PIT Gymnastics has been running School and Kindergarten Sessions since 1979.
Our programs challenge the children to do the best they can, experiencing Bars: High-bar & Parallel-bars, Beams, Rings, Sprung floor, Vault and Trampolines. Aerobics and Cheerleading can also be incorporated into the gym sessions.
PIT Gymnastics offers two options for the program:
- Your school comes to our gym with the benefits of a fully set up gym with all the Olympic apparatus, trampolines and a huge inground pit
- We come to your school and use your equipment and bring a range of portable equipment which can be set up at your venue
