About First Gymnastics Sunderland

First Gymnastics Sunderland is the local branch of First Gymnastics, a franchise that runs recreational gymnastics classes for children. In Sunderland its classes take place in the sports hall at Monkwearmouth Academy on Torver Crescent, Seaburn Dene, with parking in the main car park by the sports entrance. Sessions use bars, vault, trampettes and an airtrack, and children work through an award scheme with certificates and medals.

Classes are grouped by age. Tiny Gymnasts, for ages 2 to 4, run on Saturday mornings with a parent or carer joining in. Mini classes are for 4 to 6 year olds who are already in full-time school, Midi classes cover ages 6 to 8, and Maxi classes are for 8 to 12 year olds. Weekly sessions run on Tuesday evenings from 5pm and on Saturdays, last 55 minutes and are paid by monthly subscription. Bookings, including a trial class, are made through the branch's ClassForKids page.
