What is GymAbility?

Five Dock Leisure Centre is proud to offer a program that caters for children with special needs. Our GymAbility program allows participants to target the development of physical abilities in a fun and safe environment through beginner-friendly gymnastics-based movements.

The class is structured with a variety of developmental exercises including:

  • Basic Gymnastics
  • Gross Motor Skills
  • Body Awareness
  • Fitness Skills

GymAbility will take place in our fully equipped gymnasium, utilising sprung floor and trampolines. Each lesson will include a warm-up involving familiar exercises to prepare the children for the movements of the lesson. Skills and activities will form the bulk of the lessons, all designed to improve and develop each child’s abilities. Each lesson will conclude with flexibility exercises.

All participants are required to have one parent/carer supporting and assisting them throughout the class, alongside our qualified coaches. 

Bookings are essential and must be made with payment at reception. Spaces are limited so please see our friendly staff to secure a spot.
