            General Information
            Gymnastic activities can be traced back to the earliest of time. It has been practiced for thousands of years with constant change and development.

            The type of gymnastics that was practised in the 1800’s was a non-competitive form with well controlled gymnastics movements. The sport developed through the years and even though some gymnasts wanted to compete, the majority of gymnasts did not. They practiced just Gymnastics and that is what we today call Gymnastics For All.

            While Gymnastics For All is the basis of all competitive disciplines, it is also a discipline in its own right incorporating a diverse range of movements and exercises that by their very nature contribute to a participant’s physical, intellectual and social well-being.
