Information on the gym
Total Fitness Wilmslow welcomes boys and girls to their sessions
For the Twinkle Stars classes we ask the parents to get involved and support their child throughout the class.
Spectators are not permitted in the room.
Guardians must stay at the venue for the duration of the class but are not permitted inside the studio. Guardians need to be available to complete toilet trips should they be required upon the request of the coach.
There is a car-park in front of the venue.
Equipment
This venue has a number of benches, floor mats, vault, springboard, soft play (twinkle stars) and various handheld equipment to help with the children's coordination.
Directions
From the M60
Head west on M60 toward Exit 3. At junction 3, take the A34 exit to Cheadle/ Wilmslow. Turn left onto Kingsway/A34 and continue to follow A34. Go through 3 roundabouts and at the next roundabout, take the 1st exit. Follow this road round and you will come to a barrier which will automatically lift as you come to it, this is Total Fitness's car park.
Session details
Gym Stars: The children will be working through our Gym Stars programme using our bespoke Beth Tweddle gym stars award system. We aim for them to achieve one award per 10 weeks with their progress being monitored and recorded regularly within their progress booklets.
First session
Parents can stay for the first session should they wish to do so, however after the first session they will not be permitted to stay as the coaches will require the gymnasts full attention at all times during the session.
Clothing/Jewellery
Gymnasts are required to wear a t-shirt and shorts/tracksuit bottoms or leggings. No bare midriffs. Long hair must be tied up and no jewellery is allowed. Earrings must be removed and if this is not possible they must be taped up. They must also bring a drink to their classes. They will train in their bare feet.
Progress booklet
They must also bring along their progress booklet as this is where the coaches will record all progress and mark off what skills have been achieved. If a gymnast loses their progress booklet, a new one must be purchased at a cost of £3.50 so please ensure that they are kept safe.
What to do when you arrive
Please arrive about 5 - 10 minutes prior to the start of your session. As you enter the leisure complex if you are a Total Fitness member scan your card and enter through the turnstiles, if you are not a member signal to the receptionist you are a member of Total Gymnastics. You can come up to the studio ten minutes prior to your lesson beginning - once the previous class has departed you will be invited into the studio. This is to ensure the safe arrival and departure of all of our gymnasts.
