This unit develops students' ability to work collaboratively whilst creating sophisticated group gymnastics sequences that combine technical skill with artistic expression. Through progressive exploration of synchronisation, spatial awareness, and compositional elements, students transition from paired work to complex group choreography that demands communication, trust, and creative decision-making. The emphasis on performance quality and visual impact prepares students for GCSE-level composition work whilst building essential teamwork skills.
