Gymnastics classes in Marbella
by: Marbella Family

Marbella and San Pedro both have gymnastics classes that are quite good where your child can reach a professional level if they stick it out and have a bit of talent.

My daughter has been to the classes in the gymnastics "carpa" tent in Marbella (next to the police station) and I have always been impressed with what I have seen from the higher groups. I understand that Spain in general is pretty strong in rhythmic gymnastics.

Although my daughter didn't like the classes, because they are very strict, I have friends who have children who stayed on and can do some pretty amazing things. They enter in organized competitions, which many children like.

When my daughter entered the classes she was about 8 years old and doesn't have any natural talent, so she was slotted into the lower group. The teachers at the time didn't seem to have the patience for little ones who were there just to have fun. They seemed to spot the "good ones" and move them up to the higher group. If you are accepted into this group you have to be committed. They will ask you to bring in your child as often as possible. So, if your child likes gymnastics, is committed and serious about the sport, I think he/she will do fine.

There is another gymnastics group in San Pedro at the Polideportivo or Sports Complex near the rock climbing wall, which you see on your left side as you take the road up to Ronda. The Polideportivo de San Pedro is located on Fuente Nueva, S/N.

Fuengirola should also have a gymnastics course in the local community center. Try searching the official website www.fuengirola.org.

The best thing about these gymnastics classes is that they are subsidised by the government, so are very reasonably priced...practically free.

Try out the class for a trimester. You have nothing to lose.
