About Bulmershe Gymnastics Club
Bulmershe Gymnastics Club brings over 25 years of community gymnastics to Reading, operating from a purpose-built facility three miles east of the town centre. Affiliated with British Gymnastics, the club welcomes gymnasts of all ages and abilities, from walking-age toddlers through to adults, offering recreational classes, competitive squads, women's and men's artistic gymnastics, acrobatic gymnastics, parkour, and adult sessions. Preschool and KinderGym classes introduce the youngest children to movement and coordination, while school-age gymnasts progress through recreational programmes or join competitive pathways as their skills develop.
Parents consistently praise the coaching team at Bulmershe. Sarah, Paige, and Coach Dan receive particular mention for their friendly, encouraging approach and skill in working with young children. Families report that coaches give one-to-one attention, allow children to experiment and build confidence, and create a welcoming environment where children genuinely enjoy themselves.
The club's equipment includes bars, trampolines, and a foam pit, and open-gym sessions give younger gymnasts unstructured play time under carer supervision. Bulmershe caters well to families looking for value and flexibility. School-holiday camps run at reasonable prices, and the club hosts popular birthday parties where children can explore the apparatus with guidance from the team.
Reviews note how much progress children make, from three-year-old twins gaining coordination to older gymnasts staying with the club into their late teens. Special-needs and inclusive classes further broaden access. With extended weekend hours and wheelchair-accessible facilities throughout, Bulmershe Gymnastics Club offers a practical, well-established option for families across Reading and the South East seeking quality gymnastics in a supportive, community-focused setting.
