Gymnastics for All
“Gymnastics for All (GfA) is both a discipline and a concept” - FIG
Gymnastics for All (GfA) is one of the 8 official disciplines of the International Gymnastics Federation (FIG) and European Gymnastics (EG).
The philosophy of Gymnastics for All
Although known to many because of its World Championships and prominence at the Olympic Games, Gymnastics is far more than a high-level competitive sport. It is the foundation of all sports, and an activity that can be practiced by everyone. It offers a variety of activities suitable for all genders, age groups, abilities and cultural backgrounds, contributing to personal health, fitness and well being-physical, social, intellectual and psychological.
The four tenets of Gymnastics for All are Fun, Fitness, Fundamentals and Friendship, with the overarching goal of providing opportunities for anyone to stay involved in gymnastics forever.
There is no other sport organising regular major events that brings together thousands of active boys and girls, women and men. Here are some of the opportunities for member clubs to take part in Ireland and abroad:
