About Gymnastics

At PCYC Queensland, we’re proud to offer a welcoming, inclusive gymnastics experience for all ages and abilities. As Queensland’s largest gymnastics provider, our programs are trusted and loved by families across the state. Our accredited coaches prioritise safe technique, skill progression, and, most importantly—making every class fun!

Our recreational gymnastics programs are designed to help children build strength, flexibility, coordination, and confidence in a safe, inclusive environment.

Led by qualified gymnastics coaches, our classes cater to all experience levels. Whether your child is brand new to GymSports or developing more advanced skills, our gymnasts move through clearly structured levels at their own pace.

Whether they’re flipping, balancing, jumping or performing, there’s a GymSport to suit every child’s interests, style, skill level, and creativity!

Why Gymnastics is great for kids

Gymnastics is one of the most valuable sports for children’s development, offering a wide range of physical, cognitive, and emotional benefits that support healthy growth—both on and off the mat.

Whether your child is enrolled in recreational or competitive classes, here are some of the key benefits of participating in gymnastics:

  • Improved strength, flexibility, and postural control
  • Enhanced balance and coordination
  • Increased anaerobic endurance and overall fitness
  • Stronger bones through weight-bearing movements unique to gymnastics
  • Boosted focus, concentration, and academic performance
  • Encourages goal setting, perseverance, and task mastery
  • Promotes confidence, discipline, and social interaction.

Gymnastics lays the groundwork for success in other sports and life skills, making it one of the best all-around activities for kids of all ages—plus it’s a great way to make new life-long friends while learning a new sport!
