Saturday 3rd August saw the official open day of the ‘new’ Flipz Gymnastics in Whitchurch!

Having originally started in Brampton Primary School, then onto JKHS in 2016; they secured their first dedicated gym in Millpond Street 3 years later. This latest move sees the club expand further into a much larger space with all four pieces of WA gymnastics equipment and some new additions including a T-trainer, parallel bars and the overall favourite – a Tumbl Trak! The gym also has a lovely new cafe from where parents and carers are able to watch the training sessions on a large screen.

The open day was a roaring success – with six sessions running back to back and over 130 gymnasts – and lots of adults! – trying out the new facilities for the first time. Robin (our new barista) was kept busy in the cafe, whilst the amazing team of coaches provided engaging, fun sessions in the gym.

As a ‘thank you’ to our wonderful team of coaches and helpers, Flipz took to the river in the evening with Ross on Wye Paddleboard, for a lovely relaxing (and a little bit nerve-wracking for some!) trip along the Wye.

Flipz would like to thank family, friends and their fabulous team for their unwavering support over the past few months…we couldn’t have achieved this without you all and we look forward to many happy years ahead in our lovely new home!

Thank you for all your support,

Flipz Team
