Each conditioning level contains ten exercises. To complete a conditioning award, gymnasts must successfully perform all ten exercises on ten separate occasions over a period of time, allowing for consistent progress and development.

Testimonial from Kaleidoscope Gymnastics: We’ve absolutely loved working with Gymnastics Foundations! There are so many different options within the scheme, which means there’s something for everyone. The younger ones enjoyed Hubert’s fairground adventure and loved bringing their own teddy bear to class, it made the sessions feel personal and fun.
We’ve found the posters for the wall fantastic. The children can clearly see what they need to work on, which is brilliant for our visual learners.
The skill specific breakdowns with the QR codes have also been so useful for our squad gymnasts, giving them a variety of drills which they can work through to achieve their big skill.
