KiBoTu – Floor Gymnastics for Children Ages 6 to 9

Gymnastics. Strength. Fun.

In our KiBoTu classes, children ages 6 to 9 discover the world of floor gymnastics through play. From rolls and cartwheels to handstands and jumping exercises, we support coordination, body awareness, body tension and confidence in a relaxed, structured and pressure-free environment.

Floor Gymnastics for Older Children

KiBoTu is designed for children ages 6 to 9 who would like to practise first basics of floor gymnastics and develop flexibility, coordination and body control. In a safe and encouraging environment, children learn gymnastic movements step by step.
