Coimbatore: Practising gymnastics on a regular basis offers many-a-benefits including, fuels the brain and body, thus preparing both for learning. Children in gymnastics learn social skills. Gymnastics improves self-esteem.

Furthermore, the benefits of gymnastics sprawl into the classroom. Listening to instructions, taking turns, respecting authority, building friendship, and learning to work independently comes effortlessly to those who practise the sport regularly.



To top it all, participating in gymnastics is fun, for both adults and children. Children will love learning how to tumble, flip, swing and make their bodies perform stunts they never thought possible.

For almost two years, Abirami had been looking for a gymnastics class for her seven-year-old daughter Nila. "But I only came across centres for adults." Her luck changed last year when she discovered gymnastics classes exclusively for children from 2.5 to 11 years held at Little Zebra School, in collaboration with Chennai-Based BackFlip.

Head coach Somnath Majumder is a national gymnast from West Bengal. "Gymnastics is a 'mother' sport," he says and explains that, in the West, children who train in gymnastics from an early age are better equipped to play sports such as football, badminton, and tennis.

The body becomes strong and flexible, he says. "Every child requires strength building in different areas of the body. Through gymnastics, we identify those, and work on them." The sport is also a confidence booster. He cites the example of, "one child who wasn't very active when he first came about two months ago. Now he is already showing keen interest to jump, roll, and more!"

Five-year-old Ved, the first student to enrol, says that it his favourite extra-curricular activity. His mother, Aishwarya, says that his interest grew after watching the Olympics.

Anjana, also five, was also inspired by watching the Olympics last year. "She used to imitate Dipa (Karmakar) at home", says her mother Priya, who would like her daughter to be a keen sportswoman. "My daughter was always active. But I felt she could enjoy herself more if she improved on her flexibility. I can see that gymnastics has helped her a lot in this area."

According to experts the apt age to master the art of gymnastics is three years and above. The sport includes physical exercise that requires a lot of balance, strength, flexibility, agility, coordination and endurance.
