About Us
Welcome to Weipa Gymnastics Club.
Weipa Gymnastics Club is an incorporated, not-for-profit gymnastics club run by a volunteer committee that provides gymnastics classes to the youth of Weipa.
WGC is affiliated with Gymnastics Australia and Gymnastics Qld.
WGC currently offers 3 different programs:
KinderGym: play-based, coach-led with parent participation required. Available to 2-5yo’s.
Gymnastics for All (GfA): recreational gymnastics classes for boys and girls between the ages of 6-12yo, focussing on developing and improving fundamental gymnastics skills in both floor and apparatus spaces.
Women's Artistic Gymanstics (WAG): Competitive level gymnastics program for girls aged 6-12yo focussing on discipline and excellence on floor, vault, uneven bars and beam. This program is currently invitational only (by Head Coach) and offers the opportunity to be professional graded and compete at external competitions.
All available programs develop strength, balance and body awareness, encourage self-confidence and creative expression, and enhance coordination, agility, mobility and flexibility.
