FLIP N FUN Gymnastics Center Bahrain
About The Center : An Introduction
Bushra and Amineh are the Directors of Flip n Fun Gymnastics. They started Flip n Fun together in 2018 – opening the doors in January 2020 – and are passionate about movement, the sport of gymnastics and all of the benefits this sport brings, especially in today’s digital world.
With 4 children between them, Bushra and Amineh know first-hand how powerful the world of movement is and how gymnastics is the perfect stepping stone for developing confident, happy and active kids. With that in mind, they created a safe and friendly space where children can thrive.

RECREATIONAL GYMNASTICS
Recreational gymnastics, as its name suggests, caters to anyone from your little or big ones who are just starting out in the sport, to seasoned gymnasts who’d like to train without the pressure of competitions. In short, recreational gymnasts get to cement the fundamentals of the sport through classes, and can transfer the techniques and skills they’ve picked up to plenty of other sports later in life.
Recreational gymnastics is an excellent addition to any child’s healthy lifestyle. It’s a high intensity sport, burning calories and helping to gain muscle tone, flexibility and balance. The skills and developmental advances gained from doing gymnastics – even recreationally – will benefit them in any other sports they take part in, as well as in social situations and with discipline around schoolwork, etc.
At Flip n Fun we offer beginners recreational and intermediate recreational classes.
PROFESSIONAL GYMNASTICS
(Pre-Pro & Pro)
Competitive/Professional gymnastics requires a high level of commitment – in terms of time, pressure and expectation. Places on a competitive squad are limited and are made by selection, so as much as you might have expectations as a parent or gymnast, there is also a level of expectation from your coaches and team members. Some competitive gymnasts start training at a young age, but we also see numerous children come into the sport later on and progressing well, because they are naturally athletic – and because they work very hard. There is a dedicated training programme they must adhere to, working closely with their coaches to hit certain milestones.
It is also not uncommon for children to move from recreational to competitive gymnastics over the course of their training when their coaches feel they’re ready for a greater level of commitment. However, it is still essential to know that the decision ultimately falls on the shoulders of the child, and we as parents should never rush into placing them into more intense programmes. These children will participate in regular competitions with the gym, as well as moving onto higher levels of international competitions.
HOMESCHOOLERS
While there is often no one better to teach your child than you or another family member who loves and understands them more than an educator with dozens of other students to be concerned with, there are some things that you may be well-equipped to provide. Physical education is of vital importance to children at all stages of their development, and one of the best forms of exercise to ensure healthy development is gymnastics.
Gymnastics is the perfect athletic pursuit for a child who is being home-schooled. It provides children of all ages with opportunities to improve their dexterity, build confidence with their growing and changing bodies, increase their flexibility, and lay the foundations of a strong and sustainable physique that will improve their physicality without long-term health complications that can be caused by immersion in other common athletic pastimes.
These classes run twice a week, a minimum number applies.
