Have a question? Here are the ones parents ask us most.
1. How long before my daughter can realistically do a cartwheel she could show off at her school dance concert?
Every child is different, but many children working through our Beginner Gymnastics or Beginner Tumbling program see a functional cartwheel emerge within one to two terms when attending weekly. The key is consistent attendance and the correct foundational progressions — which is exactly what our structured classes deliver. If your daughter has a specific deadline, such as a dance concert in Term 3, we'd encourage you to book a trial class as early as possible so our coaches can assess where she is starting from and place her in the right program to give her the best chance of hitting that goal.
2. My daughter's dance teacher has told her she needs to have a round-off and a back walkover by Term 3 — is the Tumbling Program specifically designed to teach those named skills, or is it more general fitness?
The Tumbling Program is exactly what your daughter needs. It is a floor-based program focused specifically on the biomechanics of power and agility — handstands, cartwheels, round-offs, and progressions towards flips and back walkovers. Beginner Tumbling builds the cartwheel and handstand foundations, while Intermediate Tumbling focuses on mastering round-offs and working toward the round-off back handspring. If your daughter has a Term 3 deadline, we would recommend booking a trial class as soon as possible so we can assess her current level and place her in the right program to hit that goal in time.
3. Is Modbod a competitive gymnastics club, or is it something more relaxed where my kid can just learn and have fun without the pressure?
Modbod is 100% recreational — there are no competitions, no grading exams, no expensive costumes, and no escalating training schedules to navigate. We are affiliated with Recreational Gymnastics Australia (RGA) and built specifically around the idea that children learn best when they feel safe, challenged, and genuinely enjoy showing up each week. Your child will learn real, technical gymnastics skills in a structured environment, but the goal is always Physical Literacy and confidence — not trophies.

About
- A fun and engaging 60 minute skills-based recreational gymnastics class, that focuses on the important building blocks – skill progression, strength and flexibility.
- Not only will the kids be working towards new and exciting skills across various apparatus (i.e trampoline, floor, vault and bars), they’ll also be working equally hard on improving their core strength, basic movement patterns, body awareness and technique.
- This is a great program for any girls looking to balance the tumbling component of gymnastics (which is represented more in our Acro and Tumbling classes), with more work on bars and other apparatuses.

In 2024, all kids enrolled in a term-based program will need to pay an annual Insurance, Rego and Membership fee of $55-to-$80/child based on the enrolled program. This will cover the child for personal injury insurance during the calendar year, and anyone joining a class in term 4 will have a slightly reduced fee.
Modbod Kids affiliated with Gymnastics NSW in Mid-2021, allowing the business to become a registered gymnastics club. This helps us with ticking some very important boxes.
Which include:
1. Adequate Gymnastics Public Liability Insurance
2. Accredited gymnastics coaches (and ensuring all staff are up to date with their first aid, Working With Children Check, Child Protection and other educational courses provided by Gymnastic Australia)
3. Personal injury insurance for all kids who take part in any of our programs (subject to paying a one-off annual insurance fee).
Why must every child be insured?
Under our Gymnastics Public Liability Insurance, all kids are insured for up to 30 days (which means holiday programs, birthday parties and trials are all covered). However, when a child goes beyond the 30 days (such as in the case of a term program), they must have personal injury insurance in place (which is an extra one-off cost that we need to charge for and then transfer across to Gymnastics NSW).
What is Personal Injury Insurance?
It’s designed to offer some peace of mind to club members (i.e. the kids) by having protection for certain costs related to injury sustained whilst involved in any gym activities. Coverage is split into 3 components:
Capital Benefits – claimable in the event of death or permanent disability
Non-Medicare Medical – provides reimbursement for items that are not claimable in any way through Medicare. However, due to government legislation, the Medicare Gap cannot be claimed.
The following expenses are generally covered:
physio and chiro treatment, dental treatment, ambulance transport, private hospital treatment
The following are not covered:
Doctor’s fees, X-rays, public hospital costs, surgeon‘s fees (which are all generally covered by Medicare)
