Trusted by Thousands of Families!

Since 2008, Backflip Gymnastics has helped over 5,000 children discover what their bodies can do.

Our coaches are trained through our in-house Backflip University, bringing energy, expertise and encouragement to every camp session. Because when children feel supported, they thrive.

  • "My daughter has been part of this lovely Backflip community for over a year now and adores her gymnastics sessions. The coaches are wonderfully supportive, the open days to see their progress are a fantastic way for us parents to see what they've been up to. But most importantly, my daughter's confidence has grown and her love of gymnastics grows weekly as she learns new skills. She'll be at holiday camps over summer and is already looking forward to them."

    —Emily F.

  • "My eldest daughter goes to backflip once a week for the squad practice but we hadn’t tided the holiday camp there until this Easter. Both daughters absolutely loved it and have asked to go again in the future!"

    —Sarah L.

  • "Me and the little one love Backflip Gymnastics. My daughter loves the coaches and they make her time there so much fun while learning great new skills. Couldn't recommend it more."

    —AMD

  • "My son has been here for nearly 2 years. He likes all coaches here especially coach Naomi has the magical ability to teach gymnastic fundamentals while keeping the kids in constant giggles. Her funny, playful approach means my son doesn't even realize he's learning discipline, strength, and coordination—he just thinks he's having the time of his life. Whether it's a silly voice, a goofy demonstration, or turning a drill into a game, she meets the kids at their level."

    —NV

  • "My son really enjoys this gymnastics school. He started when he was 5 and he's six now. He's learnt some basic skills and he's excited to keep learning. the teachers are always very friendly and encouraging. Highly recommended!"

    —Barbara M.

CAMP INFORMATION

  • Camps run from 10am to 3pm each day. We discuss with the children what they would like to work on during the camp so we can tailor each day to suit all attendees and their different skill levels.

    A typical day includes a mixture of skills practice, games, outdoor activities, snack time, a lunch break, and arts and crafts.

    We accept a maximum of 16 children per camp. To ensure maximum coaching time, children are sometimes divided into smaller groups based on age, ability, or skill level.

    Our camps are open to children aged 4 to 12 years old. We welcome everyone, from complete beginners who have never tried gymnastics before to squad-level gymnasts, and we do our very best to ensure every child feels welcome and included in all activities.

  • Backflip Gymnastics members aged 4+ receive a discounted price all year round on all camp bookings.

    We also offer a 15% OFF Early Bird discount for each of our camps*. 

    *Once the offer has ended, any bookings made after the cut-off date will not be eligible for the Early Bird discount.

  • All children must be aged 4 years and over to participate in camp. Unfortunately, we are unable to make any exceptions due to our insurance policy.

    All children must be fully potty trained and able to use the toilet independently for all needs.

    Children must bring a packed lunch, a water bottle, and snacks for snack time. Please note that NO NUTS are permitted in any packed lunches or snacks.

    Weather permitting, we have outdoor activities so please ensure your child has appropriate outerwear and/ or layers. Applying sunscreen before drop off is highly recommended during the May/Summer camp weeks. 

  • The main door will open at approximately 9:55am. Unfortunately, no early drop-offs are permitted.

    Upon arrival, you will be asked to confirm your emergency contact details, along with any allergies or medications your child may require during the day. We will also ask who will be collecting your child, and a contact phone number for that person must be provided.

    Collection time is 3:00pm. The door will be opened, and children will be dismissed individually. If there have been any accidents or concerns during the day, a member of staff will speak directly with the person collecting the child.

    If the person collecting your child is running late, please contact us as soon as possible at info@backflipgymnastics.com or 020 8940 7998.

    Any child collected after 3:15pm will incur a £10 late collection fee.
