25.01.2022 Today there is a drill to improve your head stand. Easy to do at home and great for all levels. There are also some great extension drills for higher levels. If you try them, let us know how it goes!

25.01.2022 Hi again here are some things you can work on at home. How to Improve Skills by Practicing Gymnastics at Home. If a gymnast works on skills in gymnastics class once or twice a week, they may not see the progress at a speed that satisfies them. ... When it comes to mastering a skill, repetition is the key to quick progress. Practicing more is the fastest way to improve in gymnastics. Having the ability to repeat skills at home increases muscle memory so that you can do them well automatically. Being safe while practicing at home is huge so the gymnast should only do exercises or work on certain skills with which they feel comfortable. Try these ideas! Spider-man against the wall works on a gymnasts handstands. It is a climb to handstand facing the wall. Hold it for 3 seconds then lower out. Sprints Practicing sprints are a great way to improve vault skills and sprints can be practiced by running fast anywhere. Great vaults are quick and powerful, so the faster the spring before it, the more power the vault will have. Splits Working on splits is a way to improve flexibility at home. The split shape shows up frequently in gymnastics; the split shape is seen in leaps and jumps. The better the splits on the ground, the better they will be in the air. Pull-ups Pull-ups are another great exercise for improving gymnastics skills at home. Pull up on any bar you may have. If you only have a low bar do it like an upside-down push up! A pull-up bar is installed in a doorway. Scales Practicing scales at home will help improve balance, flexibility and strength all which are crucial for gymnastics. What is a scale? Stand on one leg and lift the other leg directly to the front for a front scale or directly behind for a back scale. Stand for as long as possible without loss of balance. Jumps Improve jumps by practicing straight jumps at home. Keep the body as tight as possible and jumping as high as possible while maintaining body position. Practice these jumps: Straight, Tuck, Straddle, Pike, Split, Wolf, Half Turn, Full Turn. Leaps Gymnasts are required to do leaps on the beam and in floor routines. Practice makes perfect and practicing leaps at home makes great leaps possible. Concentrate on keeping straight legs and coming high off the ground while keeping the angles made with the legs even on both sides. Turns Turns are requirements in both floor and beam routines just like leaps. Practice turns at home on the carpet or on the kitchen floor wearing socks.

21.01.2022 Hi everyone. We are still working on whether we will get up and running for terms 3 & 4. It will all hinge on whether Gymnastics Victoria gets an exemption to the 20 person limit for gymnastics venues. We will keep you posted.

20.01.2022 REMINDER- NO GYM There will be no Gymnastics classes on tomorrow (6th of June) due to the Heycox family being away at a funeral. There will also be no Jr Gym this Friday (9th of June) as the school will not be open due to a pupil free day.... Thanks :) See you all next week!

20.01.2022 Hi everyone! We have our AGM coming up on the 19th of March at 5:30pm at Upper Murray Pizza. All club members and parents welcome. Dinner will be provided by the Gymnastics Club. See you there!

20.01.2022 Hi everyone, As you all probably expected we have had to postpone Circastics classes for now. We have had a fantastic start to the year and we have loved working with all the gymnasts. We are sad and to not be able to continue at this time but are looking forward to getting back to it as soon as we can! Hope all goes well for everyone in the meantime.

19.01.2022 AGM on tonight at Upper Murray Pizza!

13.01.2022 Hi everyone, Just letting everyone that we got a grant to hold an event when everything gets back to normal. We thought we might revamp the gym-a-thon to be a fun family event this year. If anyone has any ideas let us know!

13.01.2022 Hi everyone a quick update of level photos. Lots of people have finished a level this semester. Well done all!

12.01.2022 Here is the next Bridge drill if you are working on your bridge. I must say I think I still need more of the first drill. My shoulder flexibility is not great!

12.01.2022 These skills will help improve hoop control and lead into the trickier stuff.

10.01.2022 Hi everyone, we thought we'd make this page to make it easier for everyone to keep up to date with the events of Corryong Jr Gymnastics Club.

09.01.2022 Hi everyone. Bridget found a Gymnastics Victoria challenge for us. It wants clubs to make a compilation video of some specific skills. I have attached the skill clips below. I thought we could go creative and try to do something interesting to give the clips a theme; we could go circus for this one! If you do a video of a skill try to give it a circus theme; bright colours, etc. Maybe some circus animal stuffed toys! If you do do a clip send it to us so we can put it in the c...ompetition! https://www.dropbox.com//39eh2t/AAAOnr5ZRJJ7iHCBvYg6HvgTa You cab do one of the skills or all of them, it is up to you. The best entries win a cash prize for the club!

08.01.2022 Hi everyone! Hope you all survived the craziness. We are finalising class numbers for next year so if you want a place please contact us as soon as possible. Due to community stress over the holidays we are postponing our AGM until next term and invoices will not be sent out until later as well.... Class 3 and 4 will begin this year as a combined class to reduce pressure on families and allow more time for older gymnasts to train. The class will run from 6:00-8:00pm with more time for individualised training. Looking forward to the year ahead!
