“MORE THAN GYMNASTICS. AT BACKFLIP, CHILDREN BUILD STRENGTH, CONFIDENCE AND JOY THROUGH MOVEMENT.”
OUR STORY
Backflip Gymnastics was founded in 2008 with one mission: to make gymnastics accessible, joyful and confidence-boosting for every child. What began in local village halls has grown into vibrant, purpose-built gymnastics centres where over 5,000 young people learn to flip, balance, jump and tumble in a safe, supportive space.
We believe every child deserves the chance to discover what their body can do. Our non-competitive, encouraging approach focuses on developing real gymnastics skills, from core strength and coordination to flexibility, balance and technique. With expert coaches, structured skill progression and plenty of high-fives along the way, we help children build confidence as they master each new move. At Backflip, every child feels like a star, whether it’s their first forward roll or their latest breakthrough on the beam.
OUR TEAM
Our core leaders are the heart of Backflip - warm, energetic and passionate about working with children. Every coach is hand-picked and trained through our in-house Backflip University, so every class is safe, fun and delivered to the highest standard. We invest in our people so they can bring out the best in yours.
