CURRENT MEMBERS

Over 600 gymnasts currently attend weekly classes at Salto Gymnastics & Trampolining (making it one of the biggest, if not the biggest, sports club in East Cork). Our classes are fully booked so please don’t ask to swap your child to another class, it just isn’t possible. To allow the gymnasts to enjoy their class, we need sufficient space and coaches. Our aim is to coach our members towards their full potential in a safe, fun & progressive gymnastics environment. 

The 30-minute classes (gymable & special Olympics), the 1-hour classes (rec & trampoline only) and the 1.5-hour classes (teen & rec+) will not run over the summer break. Information will be sent by email in May regarding booking your child in for September 2024. The trampoline development group will train over the summer, more information about this will be provided closer to the time. The display team may also train over the summer. 

Club kit won’t be available to buy again until September 2024 (aside from what’s available on the Club Shop: Shop – Salto Gymnastics & Trampolining (saltocork.ie)). 

The following are the training dates in remaining in Term 2:
