Hi

I know there are lots of gymnastics classes out there but I’m looking for a few recommendations please.  My child is quite nervous and shy but very keen on wanting to try gymnastics.

Ideally in the local area and not too expensive.
 

Thanks so much. 

I would recommend Synergy Gymnastics  (formerly Southwark Gymnastics). My son went to classes for several years. They offer holiday clubs too, whether or not your child attends a regular class.

Not gymnastics but also very good, trampolining with Beckenham Fliers.

My two girls currently go to Charisma gymnastics . In summary, my girls love it, and have really developed in their gymnastics - but I have to say, it is very very expensive. They sadly don’t provide sibling discount like most / other local children clubs do and I’m afraid with the amount of “gymnastic competitions” they run and which there is a hefty charge to enter as well as a fee for parents to come and watch their children compete (!)  it really feels like they are just focused on making money. 

sadly, even with the amount of money that goes towards gymnastics, parents can’t even go inside to “watch” their children learn gymnastics as there is “no space”. I’ve told friends the same. Seriously considering looking at an alternative option.

    • Great shout. They do need the extra fat when it’s winter, but don’t use fat balls from April as they are dangerous for nestlings as the babies can choke on lumps of the fat. When it gets milder switch to suet pellets as they are harder and don’t melt (the grease is bad for feathers.    
    • Rather alarmist. There is unlikely to be snow this week, but even if there is that is natural and wildlife adjust accordingly. There are fewer insects to eat due to what humans have done to the planet over the decades.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decline_in_insect_populations  In particular: Habitat Loss and Fragmentation: Agricultural Chemicals: Climate Change: Pollution: Invasive Species: There is even a case for not feeding birds due to the spread of disease through feeders, greenfinch population was decimated.   https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2025/jan/24/should-we-stop-feeding-birds-what-happens-if-we-do-and-does-it-spread-disease   I do feed the birds but keeping a watching eye on the evidence.   And I try to grow insect and bird friendly plants including attempts at a meadow.   There could also be an argument for not keeping cats as these may decimate bird populations.   https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2022/aug/14/cats-kill-birds-wildlife-keep-indoors   You will need squirrel proof feeders and even then you may have the starlings and green squwaky things eating most of the food left out for small birds.  
    • Apparently this year due to the weather there are fewer insects for the birds to eat. So please if you don’t usually buy fat balls & seeds to put out (in safe places to avoid the cats ) a plentiful supply . They really need it this year, especially with snow forecast later this week.    Thankyou 
    • I hope she and the rider of the bike are ok. I feel its understandable that locals may be concerned when they see a road taped off and police presence.
