Pre School

PRE SCHOOL

Aspires Pre School Programme contains classes suitable for 8 weeks up to full time school age.

Below is an overview of all of our Pre School classes on offer

There is no need to pre book for either our Fun4Baby or Adult and Child classes as these are run on a  drop in basis. So please feel free to come along to either of the sessions and see how you get on.

FUN4BABY

The first class we offer is a Fun4Baby class for 8 weeks to 18 months, these classes follow a gentle warm up encouraging strength and flexibility followed by free play and a short cool down including parachute and bubble fun time.

Babies have a natural urge for movement and contact.  By taking advantage of the baby's pleasure in this physical dialogue, the parent and the baby can increase their mutual enjoyment of one another.  The happy and loving images of parents and babies displayed in a session, along with gurgles of delight from baby, as they learn to manipulate and co-ordinate their bodies are a great joy to watch and hear

It will encourage strong, supple joints and muscles upon which the child will rely on for the rest of its life.  Why take chances with children's future strength, flexibility, balance, posture, orientation, locomotion and co-ordination when they can, through the good habit of exercising and playing with their child naturally, ensure that he or she will have these physical attributes.

The below two classes it is important that you Pre book, as these classes do quickly become full. Please phone for availability on our Administration Line 07428652891

MINI GYM TOTS

For those wishing to introduce more structure for their child then we run a Mini Gym Tot session, these session are aimed at 2yr + and follow the same content as our Independent Gym Tot classes as laid out below but with the advantage of a Parent/carer attending to reduce any anxiety that may be brought on by being left. The Mini Gym Tot classes are a full fast paced class, and both adult and child get out of it only as much as they are willing to put in, so be prepared to wriggle around on the floor like a snake etc with us coaches.

GYM TOTS (independent)

Gym Tot classes are our final classes under Pre School for children 3yrs + that are ready for an independent learning environment. Helping to prepare them for the transition into our After School classes. These classes follow a fortnightly theme that runs throughout the session. Starting with a group warm up using different hand apparatus songs and rhymes, we then follow on by completing three small circuits on a variety of apparatus, in which the Gymnasts learn their forward and backward rolls, handstands and cartwheels, with every session ending up with a bounce on our sunken trampoline.
