About
JuniorGym is our under 5s program, designed specifically for pre-school aged kids!
These classes aim to develop the participant holistically, with focus equally placed on developing physical and social skills in an engaging environment.
JuniorGym classes utilise all of the gymnastics apparatus as well as specialised training aides, helping each preschooler hone their fine and gross motor skills.
Every week, our JuniorGym classes explore a different theme to keep their minds engaged - some of our favourites include Dinosaurs, Circus, Animals, Halloween and Bluey!
Each JuniorGym class is tailored to achieve key movement fundamentals and build social skills, enabling kids to step up into our after school EduGym program once they start school

Check In Weeks
At the end of every term, we hold a check-in week. It’s a chance to pause, look at how far each gymnast has come, and record their progress so we can celebrate what they’ve achieved and plan what comes next.
What happens during a check-in week?
Your gymnast’s coach will spend time in class watching each gymnast work through the skills or milestones for their level, and recording where they’re at.
There’s nothing your gymnast needs to prepare. Check-in weeks aren’t a test to pass or fail. They’re a snapshot of where your gymnast is right now, and they help our coaches plan the right next steps for every child in the class.
What we look at in JuniorGym
Our youngest gymnasts are checked on developmental milestones rather than gymnastics skills.
These include:
-
joining in with class routines
-
listening and following instructions
-
using gym language
-
body awareness and counting
-
safety
-
social skills and resilience
Check-ins also help us see when a JuniorGym Explorer is ready to move up to Adventurers.
Our star scale
Every skill or milestone is given a star rating:
⭐ Having a Go
⭐⭐ Getting There
⭐⭐⭐ Got It!
Every gymnast starts somewhere, and every star along the way is progress worth celebrating.
Seeing your gymnast’s progress
After each check-in week, you’ll be able to see your gymnast’s stars in the customer portal. It’s a great way to talk with your gymnast about what they’re proud of and what they’re working towards next term.
