•6 Lessons
This unit develops students' ability to create and perform gymnastics sequences with precise timing, moving from partner work to sophisticated group performances. The focus on timing - through canon, unison, and counter tension - transforms individual movements into collaborative choreography, building both technical control and interpersonal awareness. Through progressive challenges, students learn that gymnastics is not just about individual skill but about creating collective artistry through synchronised movement.
