At Oceanic Gymnastics Centre we believe that a child must have fun and truly enjoy what he or she is doing to learn successfully. Our staff provide an enthusiastic teaching environment in which each child learns and develops at their own rate. All weekly classes are structured, coach lead, are age based and coincide with NSW public holidays.
Join at any time! Classes run each week of the year, only breaking for Christmas and January Holidays. Billing is in advance fortnightly by direct debit and may be pro rated depending on your start date or due to public holidays. Cancel at any time with two weeks notice. Unlimited make ups to be used within 90 days of the class, however you must be a member to use your make ups.

For Children 2-6 years of age 
This 45 minute class begins as a parent assisted program where an adult is expected to actively participate with their child until the age of 4 years and 6 months. Parents of children over this age may still enter the gym as needed.
Our Gym Fun program is a great developmental starting place for all children. Even though it is a gymnastics class, we incorporate all ball sports, Tennis, Golf, Football, Soccer, Cricket, Baseball along with plenty of other activities for fine and gross motor skills. Children will learn basic and complex locomotor skills such as jumping with feet together, hopping, skipping along with animal walks such as bear walks, bunny jumps and crab walks. We also incorporate hand eye coordination and spatial awareness activities all placed strategically within our circuits each week.
Children will be balancing on the beams, hanging and supporting their body weight as well as swinging and climbing on bars, jumping on the trampolines and learning forwards and backwards rolls on floor whilst also beginning handstand and cartwheel work. We make use of tunnels, slides and soft play items along with having fun in our ball pit and foam pit.
Our Gym Fun Program is a great way for your child to make friends and learn how to be with other children and there are plenty of opportunities to learn about sharing and taking turns. Many parents also make friends with the other parents in the class.
Children work their way through our 3 skill booklets over their time in Gym Fun and receive a certificate upon the completion of each book. All booklets include gymnastics skills, safety and developmental skills.
Our Bronze Booklet is for our new or younger members and includes many of the basics that are important to master. Whilst working on the Silver booklet, parents help prepare their child for independence, by encouraging their child to sit, listen and watch their coach demonstrate the circuit and activities.Parents assisting this age group keep their child on track, correct as needed, help with the challenging skills or technical corrections and are nearby to catch them if they fall. The one on one work parents do at this time is crucial. It is also a great bonding time for parent/grandparent and child, to have their full attention whilst having fun together.Children who finish their silver booklet will begin working on their Gold Booklet.
Once a child reaches the age of 4.5, they may participate in the Gym Fun Class without an adult although parents are always welcome in a Gym Fun Class as needed. Children in this class will likely be working on their Gold Booklet. This booklet will set them up to be equal or ahead of their peers in a Junior Class.
Children who complete their Gold Booklet may move up to the Junior Class early, even if not starting school until the following year. This ensures that children who have been taking regular classes and working through their skill books, continue to move forwards with their development. Of course children may also choose to remain in Gym Fun classes until the end of the year.
Classes have a maximum of 8 children per coach and we aim to have two classes running simultaneously in order to split children by age for each class. Some classes may have smaller numbers and therefore may have a mix of ages. Coaches will help and challenge each child at their own rate, and in line with their booklets. Parents may ask for siblings to stay together regardless of age and may also let us know if you are attending with friends who you would like to be grouped with.
Children follow a group warm up followed by 3-4 circuits on our different apparatus stations. Each week follows a similar format allowing children to develop a sense of mastery and accomplishment. Circuits will change each fortnight to make the most of all of our equipment whilst also giving children the chance to become familiar with each station and improve from the week prior.
