Sport Specific Classes

Are you involved in a sport already? Why not ask about our sport specific classes- we can tailor a sports conditioning class to most sports, helping you gain the competitive advantage in your chosen sport, or even just to help you reach your own personal goal!

For example- for team sports such as hockey, football, rugby and soccer, we can help you develop your change of direction skills- thus allowing you to quickly turn around and dodge out of your opponents way, or if you manage to gain possession for your team, you can quickly change direction and be the main instigator in winning that most important goal! 

For individual sports, such as swimming or gymnastics, we can adapt the session to really strengthen, stretch and improve your overall flexibility thus allowing you to be your best!

Above all, within any sports you’ll need good balance, core strength and flexibility to enable you to be as fast and tricky for your opponents as possible!

Come join in the fun!  Contact us on www.kindergym@thswim.com.au or 9486 3941.

Don’t forget to ask about our free trial for each athlete!

Superheros and Fairies Birthday Party!

If you are looking for a place to have a four year old’s birthday party, you can’t really go past the KinderGym.  Vanessa (aka the Gym Fairy) and Tracy (aka Wonderwoman) hosted my son Gus’s party last Saturday, and I can’t believe how much work they put into making the Gym look like a Superheroes and Princesses playground.

All of the children (17 of them!) were absolutely enthralled by their hosts, and all of them had a go at the activities the girls had set up.

There were no tears or tantrums (unusual for a bunch of 4 year olds) and nobody wanted to go home!  I think the parents had fun too. 

Considering the swim centre had never had a party on the premises before, they were fantastic as well. I would thoroughly recommend the centre and the gym to anyone looking for an unusual and fun party venue.

Thanks KinderGym crew.

Silvana Stephen.

Coaches

VANESSA COOK

Vanessa has tried most sports and has a passion for anything fast and dangerous!  Starting with swimming before she could walk, Vanessa has continued to be full of energy and managed to combine a swimming career alongside gymnastics until the age of 15. 

Picking up other sporting skills in trampolining, squash, mountain biking, rollerblading, tennis, badminton, netball and volleyball Vanessa finally concentrated on competing in horseriding, which became her passion for years, before serious study took over and Vanessa went to University to study a BSc Hons degree in Sport and Exercise Science.  Whilst studying at university, Vanessa traded her swimming skills for hockey and after 4 years represented her county (similar to state level in Australia,) in mixed hockey.  Whilst at University, Vanessa was fortunate enough to study for a semester in Nice, France and took part in mixed soccer, mixed rugby (2nd line scrumming!) tennis, gymnastics, windsurfing, snowboarding and skiing.

Vanessa decided to travel the world and took up surfing, after a year she became a qualified surf instructor in Australia and in Great Britain, then she jetted off to Canary Islands for a year teaching surfing to children aged 8 years up to 80!  Travelling for 3 months surfing solidly in Indonesia, Vanessa really got to know the culture and followed the waves!

Eventually settling in Australia, Vanessa taught a gross motor skills program to 2-5 year olds, tennis to 5-7 year olds and continued to play hockey and surf as much as possible!

Forever looking at new training drills and techniques, Vanessa is keen on enhancing her coaching qualifications and experience through NSW Sport and Rec, Gymnastics Australia, National Strength and Conditioning Association.
