SEND and Rebound Therapy – disability gymnastics and movement sessions for children and young people.
The vision behind NBC Gymnastics was one of a centre that provided the best equipment and facilities and sessions for all children and young people regardless of their ability or disability.
We believe gymnastics and the use of rebound equipment for rebound therapy and assisted movement can be beneficial for so many parts of your child’s development and enjoyment.
Our centre in Sutton Coldfield has been designed with both ambulant and non-ambulant people in mind. Our fantastic raised podium with trampolines and foam pits is fully wheelchair accessible and we have a fully kitted out changing place with H Hoist and a Hoist over our trampoline.
We have a two specialist activity rooms with ample opportunity for sensory input through either our interactive sensory room or our climbing and swinging room!
We are able to cater for children, young people and adults with profound and multiple learning disabilities and those with significant medical needs along with children of school age with physical disabilities.
We have staff trained in Disability Gymnastics, Makaton, Rebound Therapy and Paediatric First Aid. There are a number of options available to you when accessing sessions for your child.
Many children with a range of special educational needs enjoy our mainstream classes. With our inclusive ethos and specially trained staff many children access their gymnastics sessions in our Bunny Hops and Fundamentals sessions.
We run 5 different after school and weekend In4Gym Disability Gymnastics Sessions each week. Children participate in a small group with or without parental / carer help accessing equipment to suit their needs and assisted by trained coaches. Sessions involve a mixture of fine and gross motor function activities using lots of different resources, equipment and trampolines.
Rebound Therapy is also available at NBC Gymnastics. We have been so fortunate to be supported by The Community Fund so that families that are self-funding can access group, 1:1 and 2:1 gymnastics and rebound sessions at a highly subsidised rate, meaning that all children regardless of their ratio needs are charged the same as any child accessing our mainstream programme. Thanks to our overhead hoist, these sessions are suitable for the majority of children and young people.
If you are interested in any of the above activities, please contact our head of SEND, Libby on: info@nbcgymnastics.org or 0121 679 8632. Please see our weekly timetable below: (we also run 1:1 and 2:1 sessions throughout the daytime during the week, please make an enquiry for details)
