Receive specialist coaching sessions designed to fit around your individual needs, with experienced coaches who deliver bespoke training to your discipline.
The MC ELITE Gymnastics Academy supports gymnasts to develop their skills and reach their full potential across a range of disciplines, including floor, vault, acrobatics and tumbling, with many athletes going on to compete in regional and national championships with their own clubs.
Previously, athletes have even made it through to the National Milano Team Championships, with alumni members going onto represent Great Britain!
Facilities
Our state of the art, specialist gymnastics centre comes fully equipped with Olympic apparatus, specialist sponge foam landing pits, a sunken rebound, overhead rigs and twisting belts.
Operated in partnership with the Teesside Gymnastics Association and local gymnastics clubs, this fantastic facility alongside our six courts sports hall provides a unique training, competitions and events facility for gymnasts!
Gymworld facilities include a competitive sprung floor area, high bar, rings, fast track trampoline, high balance beams and foam fit.
“The facilities are great and the coaches are really supportive. I’ve been able to learn new routines and learn more on any areas I want to improve on. We’ve also had the chance to get involved in competitions which has been really exciting.”
