About the RISE Gymnastics Programme
Discover

Rise Gymnastics Discover has three ability levels which can be delivered through twelve exciting themes. Designed to capture a child’s imagination, each theme can be used within adult and child, and independent child sessions.
Children can earn rewards as they progress through the exciting-themed activities.
Each award is achieved when the gymnast can complete 12 out of the 16 skills offered.
Rewards: Gymnasts can achieve exciting new medals and certificates for each level. Each Rise Gymnastics Discover theme has a unique certificate. These are awarded to children to recognise their effort and attendance.
