Gymnastics

Welcome to Keele University Gymnastics, a brand-new community where everyone is welcome, whether you’re a seasoned gymnast or an enthusiastic beginner looking to try something new!

What we have to offer:

We’ll be hosting weekly gymnastics classes at Dimensions Leisure Centre, led by our qualified Level 2 coach. These sessions include a fun group warm-up, followed by focused floor activities and the chance to work on the vault, bars, and beam. Classes cost just £3.50 per week to cover facility hire, and tickets will be available weekly on a first-come, first-serve basis via the SU website. If transport is an issue, don’t worry—let us know, and we’ll help organize car shares.

Additionally, we’ll hold weekly strength and conditioning sessions led by our Competition Secretary Grace, on Keele Campus, which are free with membership and a great way to build foundational skills.

We will be competing in UGC Competitions this year, and will be holding a weekly training session on a Wedesday at Dimensions Leisure Centre, for those who would like to compete! If competitions is something that interests you, there will be a trial held to assess your gymastic ability and members we believe are able and safe to compete will be selected! To compete you will be required to purchase a £28 add on fee for the year. Additional information about competitions will be provided. 

Beyond training, we’ll be hosting weekly socials and meet-ups, run by our lovely social secretarys Joe and Emma, to build friendships and create a welcoming community.

For your first two weeks, you can join as part of our ‘taster weeks’ (you’ll still pay £3.50 for Dimensions sessions), and afterward, a £58 yearly membership will give you full access to everything we offer.

Remember, wear comfy, movement-friendly clothes, bring plenty of water, and come ready to have fun and work up a sweat.

Be sure to follow us on Instagram @keelegymnastics for updates, join our WhatsApp group (link in bio of instagram), or email us at soc.gymnastics@keele.ac.uk with any questions.

We can’t wait to see you there—let’s build something amazing together!
