We are super-excited that Club Guildford Spectrum is open for classes and camps and wanted to let you know the preparations that took place to make sure we had everything ready for your child to get back to their gymnastics club safely...
We already know that obesity in children is a global public health challenge. At this time of pandemic when they have so much free time to access gadgets, it's easy for everyone to sit for hours on end and stare at a screen and not get enough exercise. So what should we do about it?..
We were thinking of you when we created our brand new Student Training Diaries. We know that you are going to love using these diaries and we can’t wait to hear your feedback on them.
They have been designed with personalised learning at their core, to map, track and feedback to you so that you can see exactly what your child is working on and for you to follow their progress through the syllabus.
I have been asked recently by several parents at our Flair Gym Clubs to explain the top benefits to health & fitness that the sports of gymnastics and trampolining offer. To which I replied “There are 100’s” ...Well I’m obviously hugely biased since I’ve been involved in gymnastics now for over 36 years BUT, gymnastics (which includes trampolining) is regarded by all sports coaches to be the Foundation of ALL sports and therefore it is THE sport that your child should do at school and after school and on the weekends and for the rest of their life if you want them to be the very best that they can be in everything they do. This will become very obvious to you if you bring your child along to a Flair Gym Club. We have a very long list of parents who sight gymnastics as the main thing that has benefited their child the most out of all the extra curricular activities that they take part in.
SPORTS BUILDS CHARACTER!
I hope you are all looking forward to the school holidays and spending lots of family time together in the sunshine.
How To Set (AND ACHIEVE) Your Goals
Todays date the '15th January' is VERY significant for us all, but WHY?
As Max Whitlock retains his GOLD MEDAL world pommel champion status at the World Championships in Montreal, I'm asking the question, is competition healthy for children?
The celebration of an achievement is a tremendous thing, but the truth is that not every child will win a competition or be the best in their group or category. Many people today (and you might be one of them) think...

PLANNING
Apart from helping children to learn new skills and improve their gymnastics and therefore build their confidence, at Flair we are super keen to grow positive and upbeat individuals who are good at socialising and enjoy making new friends. All of these life skills are so, so important and we really want your little ones to be the very best that they can be.
