Information for New Members

Gymnastics is a lifestyle, not only a sport. It is the foundation of all sports, with something for every age and ability.

At Eastern Gymnastics Club, we offer a number of programs - Acrobatic Gymnastics, Adults, Gymfun, Gymstar, Kindergym, Men's Artistic Gymnastics (State & National), Rhythmic Gymnastics, and Women's Artistic Gymnastics - and so there really is something for everyone. If you're interested in joining the club and taking up the sport of Gymnastics, there is certainly a wide enough choice for their to be something for everybody.

For children new to the sport, we recommend starting in the Gymfun program, which provides a bit of everything; though if you have a specific gymsport in mind, you can start there instead!

If you would like to join the club, we recommend you come along for a free trial lesson. To book one, contact the gym and we will be able to recommend a suitable class. The timetable is also available online. Before you attend, recommend the maps, and look over the following checklist:

How to join the club:
  1. Read about the club.
  2. Contact the club to book a trial lesson and confirm the time.
  3. Check the map of the relevant venue.
  4. Attend the trial lesson.
    • Gymnasts should wear relatively tight-fitting clothes that will allow free movement. Skirts or denim are poor choices, but for beginners; shorts and a t-shirt will suffice. Shoes and socks will be taken off before class begins.
    • Hair should be tied back and no jewellery may be worn.
    • Parents are free to leave once class begins, but must return to collect their child from inside the gym - no gymnast will be permitted to wait outside.
    • Pick up a membership form. (You can also download it here)
  5. Return the membership form and begin attending classes. An invoice will be mailed to you.
