About BK’s Gymnastics Hawthorn

Active Kids are Happy Kids

At BK’s Gymnastics Hawthorn (previously Melbourne Gymnastics Centre) we provide gymnastics classes for babies and toddlers, through to kinder, primary and high school aged kids.

Our programming, which is aligned Recreational Gymnastics Australia, is designed to create a fun, interactive learning pathway to help your child progress from a beginner, who’s figuring out how everything works, to an intermediate or advanced gymnast. All while developing essential physical and behavioural skills, and a life-long passion for leading a healthy, happy life that encompasses sport and recreation. 

Gymnastics is the third most popular sport for kids under 12 (Ausplay, 2020), and offers many benefits: 

It develops fundamental movement skills including physical, social and cognitive skills 

It enhances physical self-concept in all Victorian primary age year groups at a faster rate than schools’ standard PE curriculum (Rudd, 2016) 

It helps kids learn risk management and goal setting. 

BK’s Gymnastics Hawthorn is conveniently located for families in: Hawthorn, Hawthorn East, Auburn, Kooyong, Camberwell, Glen Iris, Toorak, Kew, Deepdene, Surrey Hills, Ashburton, Malvern, Caulfield, Prahran, Richmond.

Hear what our parents have to say about BK’s

“My nine-year-old, Lucy, loves everything about BK’s Gymnastics, including her coach who has been a great motivator for her.
Lucy is constantly learning new skills. The classes have also really helped her build discipline, and an understanding that if she perseveres and practices, she’ll continue to get better and better.”
– Briony Stevenson, Marrickville NSW

“My two girls, aged two and six, absolutely love their weekly gymnastics class.
As soon as they walk in the door and see their coaches, they’re smiling and full of energy.
How far they’ve progressed in their physical and social abilities and the amount of joy the classes bring to them, is a true testament to the coaches and their lovely natures.
My husband and I never hesitate to recommend BK’s Gymnastics.”
– Anna Lalut, Noble Park VIC

“My six-year-old, Bonnie, had been in dancing lessons for a few years but was needing something that was more aligned to her growing physical and social needs.
Since joining BK’s Gymnastics she’s learned how to work in groups with other kids. She’s also learned if she wants to get better at something, she needs to practice.
Because of BK’s Gymnastics, she loves learning and nailing new skills.”
– Megan Bryans, Hoppers Crossing VIC
