BEAM! through Gymnastics is an accessible gymnastics club supporting children with additional emotional, physical, behavioural and sensory challenges.

The target audience of BEAM! is any child who has additional emotional, physical, behavioural and sensory challenges. Acknowledging that every gymnast has differing needs, our BEAM! Team works with each child individually to set achievement targets for each participant.

  • New gymnasts will Initially start in a session of between 6 and 8 participants for the first term
  • ~Sessions run on a cycle of 6 weeks
  • ~ Expectation that a participant would attend the full 6 session cycle with opportunity to experience gymnastics
  • ~ A participant can engage in a new cycle at the end of each cycle if they so wished
  • ~ Each session will include warm up games, movement to music, apparatus circuits and cool down
  • ~ Sessions offer an accessible break out areas at all times, with a dark den,  sensory toys and lighting
  • ~ Visual aids such as ‘now and next’ cards
