Information:
The content of the Introduction to Gymnastics for Teachers course has been designed for teachers who require some help in understanding the basics of gymnastics. Many teachers find teaching gymnastics a daunting prospect, as they may lack a depth of knowledge of basic moves and gymnastic principles. This modular course aims to rectify this and give teachers confidence in approaching gymnastics. Along with our other teachers' courses, it aims to help teachers gain access to gymnastics information and develop their expertise in a non-threatening practical environment. These courses link into the British Gymnastics General Gymnastics Coaching course syllabi for those who wish to go further in the sport. Teachers who attend the management course and any others will gain British Gymnastics Accreditation.

 

Objectives: This two-hour module will cover:
  • Correct techniques and safety in landing.
  • Using arms in take off.
  • Maintaining stability in the air.
  • Shapes frequently used in gymnastics.
  • Using different foot/feet combinations.
  • Safety issues with flight.
  • Sequence and apparatus work.
Please note that failure to attend a course to which you have applied will result in an administration charge of £10.00 unless a cancellation code is quoted.  A similar charge will be made if delegates attend without having made a formal application.
