Hi Radden

WOW! What a party! Thank you and your team so much. The boys (and girls!!!!) had such a jol! They were all exhausted but on such a high and slept really well on Friday night! The consensus at school this morning was that it was definitely one of the best class parties of the year.

Thank you so much

Daniel, Robyn, Hayden and Anna

Good morning

I want to say a huge thank you to your team for Oliver’s party yesterday. He had such a blast and so did all the other kids. Our third time there and this was by far the best. Thank you thank you Thank you!!

Dear Radden,

A big thank you for the fabulous party you did yesterday for Orlando’s birthday, it was really amazing, the kids were so wild, frenetic and so so sweaty and happy.

Thank you so much!

Best regards,

Isabelle, Noah’s mum

Dear Radden,

Thank you so much for the party on Friday evening. Thank you doesn’t even feel enough.
I was in a bit of a hostess blur / panic! and only caught moments through the course of the party, but I could see the children were so happy, and so excited by the events of the evening.
And Orlando’s proud and happy face, with very flushed cheeks, when he was coach and when he had to demonstrate moves to his friends…that made the party for me.
Thank you for making my boy feel so special and for giving all of his friends an evening to remember.
I’ve had so many mums thank me and rave about it, tell me that their children slept late the next day etc etc. You were just incredible, with your ability to teach, encourage and entertain children all whilst keeping them focused and well-behaved. Your two helpers,  whose names escape me, were really great too. Please thank them for me.
We’ll see you on Friday! (The highlight of Orlando’s week!)

Fenella

Dear Charlene and the entire team at Gordons Gymnastics

We had the best party for our children this Sunday at Gordons Gymnastics. We were greeted by the wonderful, super efficient, organised and professional care taker Elliot who helped us set up for the party and explained everything to us we needed to know. He made sure the room was absolutely spotless, was very welcoming and so obliging. The coaches started playing with the kids from the moment they walked in to join our party. They were professional, friendly, interactive and just absolutely fabulous!! The party ran so brilliantly from start to finish and this is really due to these incredible guys!

The parents didn’t stop talking about the fantastic gym facilities and how well run the party was. ALL the children were absolutely in their element and did not stop having fun from the moment they walked in to the moment their parents dragged them out!

It really was the most wonderful and fun filled party I could have wished for my children. They have not stopped talking about it to anyone and everyone that will listen to them.

The parents were thrilled with the amazing coaches and of course very happy to receive the gift voucher from the gym (lovely gesture and hopefully it will yield clients for your business). There will definitely be incredible word of mouth advertising for you guys 🙂

Thank you again for blowing us away with such a wonderful party for my special children and for the most wonderful, professional and welcoming service we have received from you and the team.

Kind regards

WOW! Thank you to Gordons gym for the BEST party we have ever hosted.

Josh had a complete blast and so did all the other children. They were entertained from start to finish as were the parents.

The real stars of the day were Caleb and Thozamile. All I can say is that they were OUTSTANDING. On the two occasions we have seen these two young men perform we have been absolutely blown away not only with their athletic ability but also with the way they work with the children.

Last but not least I would also like to thank “Mama” for her all her help too.

Gordons Gym is a great venue but there are many great venues in Cape Town to have children’s parties, for us what makes Gordons Gym so exceptional is the staff so a huge thanks to Caleb, Thozamile, Mama for making Josh’s 7th party such a success on Saturday.

Kind regards,

George, Pam and Josh

The issue of rope skipping as a method of fitness training is highly relevant to the community. A daily 10 minutes workout of rope skipping was found to be as good as 30 minutes of jogging a day (Tibor et al. 1986). Studies on rope skipping focus on energy expenditure (Glenn et al. 1980), working intensity (William et al. 1981), or movement kinematics (John et al. 1986). Information about EMG responses during rope kipping is lacking. Little is known about the effects of rope skipping on movement co-ordination in children. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of eight weeks of rope skipping exercise on the movement co-ordination in school children in terms of EMG responses of some involved muscle groups.

Kids@Home joined us on 1 March 2018 for their annual FREE school outing…
Coach Janine and Coach Thozamile had a fun and stimulating program lined up for them. They had stations with various activities to complete. There was also enough time for some party games and free-play. All-in-all, it was an awesome morning of gymnastics fun! Learning while playing is what this program is all about.

We are in the 3rd year of running our physical education program for Kay-dee’s in Mowbray. They even have a physically disabled child who we have fully integrated into the lessons, since we are all for inclusive education… It is a joy to see the children grow and develop and become equally as physically literate, as they are intellectually. We have had great feedback from the teachers and principal, as the testimonial from the from the school below confirms.

If you would like us to come and do a FREE demonstration and trial class at your school, please contact the office on 021 686 9213 or email info@gordonsct.co.za.

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN

This is to certify that our Kay-Dee Educare children have been attending the Gordons
Gymnastics exercise classes for the past few years.
This is a fun and exciting opportunity for them to be able to express themselves during
exercise, whereby they make use of their gross motor skills and listening skills.
The instructor, with some assistance from the relevant Kay-Dee Educare class teacher,
has the ability and patience to deal with a group of children and takes good care of them
during the programme that is organised for the different age groups.
Kay-Dee Educare children have benefitted from the exercise programme by giving them
self-confidence, improving their co-ordination and strengthening their muscle tone.
Please feel free to contact me if you would like any further information.

Dear Parent/s

WE CARE ABOUT YOUR CHILD’S WELL-BEING!

As an adult, you do regular physical activity right?  Do you exercise 3-4 times a week?  If yes, GREAT!  If not, it’s never too late to start; and give your child an opportunity to do the same… We are offering to increase from 1x a week to 2 or more classes a week for FREE for the first month to try out and thereafter for a nominal fee, increase your child’s hours. On top of that, while they take part in our regular classes, we invite you to enroll in our rope skipping class for beginners on Wednesday evenings for FREE!  Call or e-mail us to redeem this amazing offer!

Below is an excerpt from an article by the World Health Organisation: read the full article here.

The number of overweight or obese infants and young children (aged 0 to 5 years) increased from 32 million globally in 1990 to 42 million in 2013. In the WHO African Region alone the number of overweight or obese children increased from 4 to 9 million over the same period.

In order to improve cardiorespiratory and muscular fitness, bone health, and cardiovascular and metabolic health biomarkers:

1. Children and youth aged 5–17 should accumulate at least 60 minutes of moderate- to vigorous-intensity physical activity daily.
2. Amounts of physical activity greater than 60 minutes provide additional health benefits.
3. Most of the daily physical activity should be aerobic. Vigorous-intensity activities should be incorporated, including those that strengthen muscle and bone*, at least 3 times per week.

*For this age group, bone-loading activities can be performed as part of playing games, running, turning or jumping.
Gymnastics provides all of these activities!

We believe that it is in your child’s best interest to attend more than one lesson per week. So send us an e-mail and take us up on this fantastic offer and try it for FREE for a month and enroll for FREE into our skipping classes on Wednesdays!!! We look after your child’s well being, because your child is worth it.
