Falcon Tumbling
Great News! Enrolment is open for existing members for Summer Term 2024
These classes allow children from the age of 5 to learn a variety of skills in these specific dynamic areas of gymnastics in a safe and inclusive environment with fully qualified coaches.
Gymnasts can expect to use lots of equipment and learn great techniques to improve their tumbles, and somersaults.
All classes will include a warm-up and a fast-paced interactive session where we’ll teach you how to tumble within a setting designed to encourage increased fitness, as well as greater mental and physical confidence.
If you have ever watched BGT and seen the many Acrobatic displays, or the Free running stunts, or even watched Diversity with their somersaults and twists and wondered, how can I learn these skills. Well at Falcon gymnastics club this session is focused on exactly those skills. Many of the participants on BGT and other shows would have attended gymnastics clubs across the country, leaning to roll, jump, somersault, twist, flick, tumble while developing great co-ordination. You too can start this journey by joining Falcon Tumbling.
We are often asked what do the gymnasts need to wear.
For Falcon Tumbling the following is a good guide. If you are still unsure, please do not hesitate to speak with the Session Leader when you attend your first class who will be able to help further.
This is why we do what we do
“Both of our sons love going to their class each week with Falcons. The staff are great with the children and they have learnt so many new skills, which they love to practice at home!”

How much does it cost?
Our Tumbling classes have a rolling termly subscription of £160 per gymnast,
The above prices are per term, which over 3 terms represents 36 weeks. (Please note: some individual terms may be longer or shorter, but over the 3 school terms they will always equal 36 weeks).
If you sign up prior to the start of the term, you have 2 payment options: Either pay the termly fee in full which is £160.00, or you can split the payment over 2 instalments, however this method does incur a small additional service charge from our provider and therefore the first payment on sign up is £83.00 with the second instalment also being £83.00 payable about 5 weeks into the term.
And finally
If you reenrol once the term has started, we kindly ask that payment for classes is made in full.
If you are a new member and are allocated a place part-way through the term, the booking system will automatically adjust your fees according to the point in the term at which you are starting.
