Trampoline
You're upside down, twenty feet in the air, experiencing a moment of weightlessness. For an instant, time seems to stand still. You peer down at the faces far below you, reach out to touch the sky and think to yourself: so this is how it feels to fly.
Trampoline is one of the most exhilarating sports there is. From your very first day, you can experience the thrill of leaping higher than you ever have before. Then, as you build your strength and skill, you can challenge yourself to go higher and higher. The sky really is the limit.
Whether you already enjoy bouncing in your back garden or want a thrilling way to get fit, you'll find a lot to love about trampolining. With classes for adults, teens and children as young as five, getting started couldn't be easier. First you'll learn how to perform simple aerial tricks and maintain your rhythm. Then, as your skills and confidence grow, you'll build up to some incredible big-air stunts. If you want, you can even show off your stuff at one of the competitions for your age group. Of course, if you'd prefer to bounce just for fun and fitness, that's great too.

Tumbling
You're thundering down the runway, launching into your fifth backflip in a row. For a moment it feels like the whole world is rotating around you. Then it's over. And that's when the crowd goes crazy.
Tumbling is a truly breath-taking type of gymnastics. It's all about somersaults, flips and twists - and linking them together, one right after the other. If you've already got a bit of gymnastics experience, it's easy to get started with tumbling (not to mention a whole lot of fun).
If you already love doing somersaults or cartwheels, you'll find tumbling really easy to get into - whatever age you are. You'll start by learning how it feels to perform simple tricks on a sprung runway. Then, as your technique and confidence grows, you'll learn to perform amazing sequences of flips and twists. If you get a kick out of competing, there are contests for every age group from child to adult. Of course, if you want to tumble just for fun, go for it!
