Baskervilles Gymnastics & Fitness Centre

Fantastic experience: My 6 year old grandson attends a Baskervilles gym session at St Marks school. He has been going for over two years and loves it. He is always keen to go and is enthusiastic about the activities in every session. He really likes his teachers (currently Maddie) who encourage him to achieve within his own abilities and take pride in what he can do. In my opinion it is really helpful for developing his physical co-ordination and for his self esteem.

Fantastic experience: Gymnastics has been the highlight of my daughter’s week for over a year, and she absolutely adores it! She started in the preschool class and is now in the reception class. She eagerly looks forward to it every week. The classes help her build confidence. The teachers are incredible, putting so much time and effort into creating engaging and enjoyable sessions for the children.

Fantastic experience: I have been attending Parent fit, child fun for the last two and a half years. It is a great way to keep fit when you have little ones. The classes are varied every week and Emma and Lorna are really supportive and encouraging. It is an inclusive and supportive group that allows you to regain some fitness and confidence whilst not having to worry about childcare. Recently I have also been attending the Step and Tone classes which are also great. The routines are different every week and it is another supportive and inclusive group. My physical and mental health have massively improved since doing the Baskervilles fitness classes and I would highly recommend to anyone, especially if you have young children.

Fantastic experience: My children have now been training with the Baskervilles for a few years, initially at the gymnastics centre and latterly in the Free-G sessions at the trampoline park. They love the sessions and have felt challenged and supported by all the staff. Emily and her team at Free-G make the sessions really fun and engaging and the watching sessions allow us to see how much progress they keep making. Emily has helped us adapt timings through school transitions and has moved the children into more advanced classes as appropriate. We couldn't recommend this provision highly enough - a brilliant work out, building hugely valuable life skills and getting to know lots of friends and coaches.

Fantastic experience: Twin girls just started in the toddler & parent sessions - 2 weeks in, and they love it!! The perfect balance of structure and play, making the exercises feel like games and encouraging independence with the parents there merely to support. Very excited to see the kids' progression through classes and ages!

Fantastic experience: My children have been attending weekly gymnastics classes at Baskervilles for around a year and they love it! I was hesitant initially, as they didn't seem to take to it in their first term, but I'm so glad we persisted - thanks to Michelle's encouragement - as they're thriving now and it's had such a positive impact on their overall confidence. The classes themselves are really well structured, with regular themes, and the staff are wonderfully supportive. I would 100% recommend to others!

Fantastic experience: Baskervilles is an exemplary place for children and adults to learn gymnastics skills. Every one of the coaching staff are well trained, enthusiastic and friendly. Their holiday clubs are so well run and an absolute must for school aged children. I imagine we will be here for many years to come…

Fantastic experience: Baskervilles is a wonderfully place! My children have attended since babies, moving up through Baby Gym, Play gym, Parent and Toddlers and Gym Tots. We had fun together, playing in a safe, exciting and friendly environment, with the wonderful coaches always providing support. My children now attend the after-school sessions, and they come out bubbling with enthusiasm for what they have done that week. As well as gymnastics, they are taught to have fun, work hard and be the best they can possibly be. My eldest has performed in several Baskervilles competitions, which are open to gymnasts of all school age levels. For her, being able to work towards a performance, and to be part of something bigger than just herself, these have been wonderful experiences. She also occasionally attends one of the holiday courses, and completely enjoys the chance to have a whole day in Baskervilles. Lastly, I've also been attending the Parent Fit, Child Fun exercise classes, and what a lifeline these have been! Being able to take part in an exercise class, whilst my youngest had toys and other children to play with, has been wonderful. My fitness, and mental health, have improved immeasurably, and I've felt like part of a community. Baskervilles isn't just a gymnastics centre. It's a place where everyone is supported to be the best version of themselves.

Fantastic experience: Our 10 year old daughter absolutely loves attending her weekly class at Baskervilles and attending days during the holidays. She would go every day if she could! The coaches have encouraged and supported her since she joined a year ago and from the way she talks about them they have clearly inspired her. Her general strength and fitness has also increased enormously over the year which is wonderful to see. Would highly recommend a class here.

Fantastic experience: My daughter had always wanted to attend Baskervilles and she was so excited to join when a Sunday class became available. 4 years later and she is still loving her time there. Her coach Vicky is amazing and is very supportive and encouraging and has really developed her skills and techniques. My daughter has had many wonderful coaches during her time with Baskervilles and it is clear that all of them love the job they do and ensure the children have the best coaching to develop and enhance their skills and love of gymnastics.

Fantastic experience: My daughter has been going to the preschool and toddler gymnastics classes for over a year and loves them! It is the highlight of our week. The teachers are brilliant as so much time and effort is put into each class to make it enjoyable and fun for the kids. It’s something new each week but progressively building on skills and the resources used really make it come alive.

Fantastic experience: My daughter has been attending the Parent & Toddler sessions with Michelle for almost 10 months, and she has been absolutely loving it! She's learned how to do forward and backward rolls, walk on beams, monkey bars and much more. These sessions have really helped improve her physical confidence and strength! Michelle has been a fantastic teacher, a natural at engaging with toddlers and managing the sessions. Her instructions are clear and fun for the children, and my daughter, who can be quite shy, has completely warmed to her and now can't wait to attend classes. Her listening skills have also really improved, and I feel these sessions have helped prepare her for preschool. Some weeks are themed, and the activities and songs are varied, always with a focus on strengthening or improving certain movements or skills. She also has adored going to the Sunday soft play sessions in the morning. Not only are these so much fun, but allows her to reinforce all the skills she has learned in her Parent & Toddler sessions. She adores jumping on the trampoline! I highly recommend Baskervilles and I look forward to many future sessions for my daughter in the years to come!

Fantastic experience: Fantastic classes!!

Fantastic experience: The parent and toddler classes with Michelle are fantastic. She is a super talent herself, demonstrates exercises beautifully and my son loves listening and following her instructions in the classes. Lizzie ran thr classes for us last year, she was also brilliant with all thr children and weve always lived going. My son's strength balance and coordination has improved immensely since doing these classes and feel so grateful to baskervile for running such a great gymnastic centre

Fantastic experience: Our daughter Darcey attends school aged gymnastics at Broadlands which is the highlight of her week. Her coaches to date have all been amazing (Amy, Katie, Coral to name a few!). Darcey has also had many private lessons with Amy, she is an incredible coach who has a wonderful way with the children. She is always so professional, kind & caring and her energy is infectious! Darcey has thrived in her lessons. Thank you Amy for your ongoing support ❤️ Being a part of Baskervilles has not only improved Darcey’s gymnastics skills but also her confidence which has helped her in other aspects of her life. Watching her achieve 1st place overall in this years club competition was truly special for us, it brought her so much pride and self belief and will likely be a moment in her life she will never forget! We cannot recommend Baskervilles highly enough, it really is such a wonderful place for children to be :)

Fantastic experience: When our daughter asked to try gymnastics at age 4 we didn't think she would still be doing the sport she loves 7 years later! She began in the pre-school classes and has progressed from their Fast Track classes through to the squad pathway at Baskervilles and is now in the junior girls squad. She loves the opportunities she gets to compete at competitions and show off those skills she works so hard to achieve in the gym and take home those all important medals! Because of the amount of time she spends at gymnastics it is important to us that the gym is a safe and supportive environment and we have found this to certainly be the case with Baskervilles. Her coaches and her peers within her squad get on very well and the coaches are very approachable should the need to discuss anything arise.

Fantastic experience: My 2.5 year old daughter has been going to regular classes and ad-hoc softplay for a year or so and she loves it. It's a real family vibe which I think comes from the gym being run by a couple of generations of Baskervilles family who still get stuck in. I went when I was a little boy over 30 years ago, and they've clearly got even better since. Lizzie is our favourite. Highly rate as the best gymnastics and soft play in the area.

Fantastic experience: Over the years I have tried most of what Baskerville’s has to offer; parent and toddler, FreeG, school age, squad gymnastics, baby gym, family gym and most recently the fitness classes aimed at parents with young children (who can join in too)….at times I have felt like I have spent most of my week there but with no regrets at all. Each of the sessions in its own right has been led by committed, passionate and conscientious individuals. Aside from the obvious physical health benefits, I am confident that my children have gained aspirational role models and grown in confidence because of their gymnastics. This is a family owned business with the best front and back of house team that I am very happy to support .

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Baskerville's. All the coaches do a fabulous job to make sure each gymnast is celebrated and adapt their style to meet varied individual needs. Our daughters started at Baskerville's when they were babies at softplay sessions then worked their way through the pre-school programme. Our eldest this year has progressed through fast-track and intermediate classes and now joined the girls squad. This year we have seen a massive growth in confidence as she has moved through the different groups, making loads of new friends, having fun and learning so many new skills. All the gymnasts and coaches are so welcoming, enthusiastic and hard working. Baskervilles is a fabulous family gym. The coaches are highly skilled and provide a safe environment for all abilities to learn. Our eldest has loved the club competitions and was particularly delighted to win gymnast of the month so she can look after gymnast bear!

Fantastic experience: I would highly recommend Baskervilles, they have accommodated for my son who has severe autism. He has a 1:1 slot early on a Saturday before the gym gets busy, his 1:1 Kate is happy and patient with him. Kate has also found ways to help him to be engaged and to try out the different activities that she models for him. My son is very excited, all week asking for ‘gymnastics.’

Fantastic experience: We actually attend gymnastics at the Leisure centre not at Englishcombe Lane. It works really well for us as all 3 children are in the same place, one class after the other. They particularly enjoy the trampolines, they are super bouncy. Nice big space to do all the activities.

Fantastic experience: Can't rate Baskervilles high enough. I signed my little girl up for PlayGym earlier this year after one of my friends recommended it, and I am so glad I did. It's the only class I take her to, and it's the only thing she needs! Lorna who runs the class is amazing, my daughter LOVES her and talks about the classes non stop between sessions. She's grown in confidence and strength massively and most amazingly, in focus, concentration and the ability to take instruction. Which is virtually unheard of for a very sassy 2 year old! We're about to move up into the Parent and Toddler class and wish that Lorna could take that too, not only to maintain some continuity, but just because my daughter is going to really miss her!

Fantastic experience: Awesome place very good coaches

Fantastic experience: My son ( almost 1 )and I are loving the baby gym sessions at Baskervilles. Kind friendly staff, the right amount of structure combined with just letting them explore. Relaxed atmosphere for parents and the session never feels long enough. Highly recommend :)

Fantastic experience: My daughter and I LOVE baby gym at Baskervilles! I recommend it to all my mum friends. It is the highlight of my week and Lizzie our instructor is also wonderful. She connects well with parents and babies!

Fantastic experience: My gymnast has progressed so much this term under Katie's coaching. Professional, Structured, Intentional training. Great environment. I really recommend

Fantastic experience: I’ve taken two of my babies to Baby Gym at Baskervilles and we all love it! Lizzie the coach is an absolute gem - she is very knowledgeable about baby development and extremely personable, remembering every adult and baby (even for years after they’ve left the class). We’ve also had Lorna covering Lizzie who is equally lovely. They put so much effort into the themed weeks which are always so impressive, and have a massive variety of excellent quality (and very clean) equipment so the babies can follow their interests, have a session suited to their individual development stage and never get bored. The circle time is fantastic for some much needed social interactions with other adults and my babies enjoy the songs and activities. I recommend these classes to any parents/carers who ask me - they’re my favourite baby activity in Bath.

Fantastic experience: My little boy loves the soft play and baby gym, he always gets greeted with smiles and happy staff. It’s such a nice atmosphere there would definitely recommended it.

Fantastic experience: My daughter does gymnastics Tuesday 3:45-4:30 and everyone there are so helpful with her especially the head coach maddie she is so friendly and very helpful my daughter loves her

Fantastic experience: Came for my first ever adult gym session and everyone was very welcoming and friendly. Really fun experience!

Fantastic experience: My boy is now 2.5 and he has benefitted so much from attending the gym classes and the soft play on the weekend. His confidence is excellent, his listening has improved, and he is much more respectful of others (children and the instructors). Not only that but it is a safe place for him to burn off some of that mad energy. I don’t take him in the week, my mother in law does, I do on a Sunday morning. It’s my favourite thing to do with him. I’m so proud of seeing his progress and very grateful to the team at Baskervilles. Thank you. Andy

Fantastic experience: Amazing place, coaches are brilliant, very patient attentive. My daughter has become a very confident girl since starting

Fantastic experience: My son has recently started attending Baskervilles classes at Broadlands, and I cannot speak more highly of them. All the team there are so welcoming, and a shout out to Katie in particular. She always takes the time to greet each and every child with such a smile of her face. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: I have been at Baskervilles for nearly a year now and have loved my time year. I come from a freestyle and parkour background and have found this has been incredible accommodated here. The freeG classes are an amazing place for me to expand my skills as we have a structured programme allowing us to work and develop are freeG each week with the help of the coaches. I have not been at a centre before that brings this level of structure to parkour and freeG which has been great for me to experience. However, we are also allowed a large level of personal choice and development with what we learn making it the perfect combination. I have now joined the baskervilles coaching team and this has been equally awarding with great support from other coaches helping me improve my skills to coach school age gymnastics and freeG. I would definitely recommend the freeG sessions to anyone interested in them!

Fantastic experience: My daughter has been coming to Baskervilles since she was 3. The ratio of coaches to gymnasts is fantastic, and they are exceptional at spending time to improve both confidence and technique, whilst always keeping it fun. My daughter is a shy girl but has always enjoyed coming to gymnastics. All the coaches recognise this attribute and take time to be encouraging, allowing her time and giving her support when she needs it. She has thrived in Charles Sunday class.

Fantastic experience: Cannot rate this place highly enough! I’ve been coming here with my baby for 2 months now and we’ve enjoyed it so much! The instructors are beyond lovely, place is the cleanest baby gym/indoor play area I have ever found! The toys are always in good condition and spotless, place even smells clean when entering! It’s done wonders for my little one’s development, I highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: My daughter joined Baskervilles because she wanted to do cartwheels on the school field with her friends. She started when she was eight, not very confident and some days were definitely a challenge. Fast forward a few years and she’s doing cartwheels and a whole lot more. She’s really into her training, loves the Christmas Gala and looks forward to taking part in competitions, which to be perfectly honest I wasn’t so sure about but they work for my daughter - who knew! She also takes great pride in demonstrating, an opportunity presented through Baskerville’s coaching pathway and a real gem in the club’s offering. There is still the odd challenging day but the coaches have watched, listened, encouraged and given my daughter time, ultimately enabling her to work things through at her own pace. It’s been an absolute joy sharing her triumphs, watching her make so many new friends and seeing her confidence grow, both in and outside of gymnastics. I can certainly say that the supportive and fun approach at Baskervilles has gone a long way in helping achieve this. There is a passion to make everyone feel included, to pass on knowledge and help people realise their potential. It shines through and is wonderful to see.

Fantastic experience: My experience at Baskervilles has been fantastic! From the moment I stepped through the doors, I was greeted with warmth and enthusiasm from the staff. The coaches are not only high skilled but also incredibly supportive, always pushing me to achieve my personal best while ensuring safety is paramount. I always look forward to coming to practice and I can’t recommend Baskervilles Gymnastics Club enough! If you’re looking for a supportive environment to learn and excel in gymnastics, this is the place to be.

Fantastic experience: Excellent Gymnastics Club and the children love it and the trainers are enthusiastic and professional

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Baskervilles! It is family run business with fantastic facilities and the experienced coaches are so supportive, encouraging and knowledgeable. My eldest daughter has been attending classes at Baskervilles for over three years, starting with BabyGym and she is now in the Gymtots class. Coming to Baskervilles is one of her highlights of the week and watching her develop a love for gymnastics and progress so well has been an absolute joy. Not only have her gymnastics skills come on leaps and bounds, but she has also enormously grown in confidence and self-belief through attending the classes, which benefits her in all aspects of her life. A special thank you to the amazing Tess and Lizzie for their wonderful coaching, positivity, endless patience, and continued support and belief in my daughter, helping her thrive My youngest daughter now attends the BabyGym class, which both her and I love! It allows me to spend quality time with her in a happy, engaging environment whilst watching her develop physically and socially with the support of fantastic coaches. I cannot wait to watch her to progress up through the stages over the coming years like my eldest daughter has. Thank you to everyone at Baskervilles and I highly recommend it!

Fantastic experience: Can't fault this club, excellent coaches, great lessons and always well organised and well run

Fantastic experience: Baskervilles is a warm and supportive place to learn gymnastics and all that goes with it (listening, patience, politeness, kindness, repeating actions that are observed, independence etc). We have had great fun and it’s been fabulous for building toddler and pre-school confidence and skills in varied classes. Michelle (and the other instructors) are brilliant, caring and good at ensuring everyone enjoys the classes, whilst also maintaining safety, order and a sense of calm (essential given the apparatus and physical environment). Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Everyone is so helpful and friendly. They’re encouraging and supportive for children (and adults) to be active, fit and safe! Can’t recommend enough!

Fantastic experience: My 2 year old and I attend Friday morning classes with Michelle, it’s the highlight of his week! Always good fun, creative and great to learn new skills. Baskerville have been good with communication and responsive to emails.

Fantastic experience: Our son joined the Baskerville's boys squad last year. Right from the start he was given a warm welcome by the other boys and coaches. The coaches are full of enthusiasm and inspire the gymnast's. This was evident in the way they too, took park in the outstanding Christmas displays. Nothing is too much trouble, the whole team are very accommodating. The gym is very well equipped with apparatus and coaches. Baskerville's is an amazing place.

Fantastic experience: This a great gymnastics club. All three of our boys have come to classes and competitions here. The pre school coaches are wonderful, especially Michelle who has such warmth and knows the children so well but is also able to train and support them so that each child is challenged and really enjoys her classes. The sessions and competitions are super well organised and the facilities are clean, welcoming and have a fantastic range of equipment for little ones through to elite gymnasts.

Fantastic experience: I have been taking part in adult gym for two years, the facilities and encouragement from the coaches has helped me develop my gymnastics skills. The coaches inspire confidence and offer plenty of individual support for each member. I was asked to participate the annual Christmas Gala on vault. Thanks to Coach Jazz who supported me and helped me prepare.

Fantastic experience: We have come over from Australia for a couple of weeks and have been welcomed so warmly by Paul and his coaches. This club is a beautifully run family business and they work hard to ensure every child has fun while working hard. Cannot recommend them highly enough.

Fantastic experience: The facilities and staff here are excellent, from the moment I started attending adult gym classes I felt so welcomed and accepted, the ability level in the group is extremely varied and the joint expertise between the staff is extremely useful for all levels of ability. The facilities and equipment are vast and well maintained. Every time I go, I can honestly say I try something new and learn something new. The energy in the gym is always amazing and I would highly recommend attending a class even if you've never been to a gym before.

Fantastic experience: A fantastic gymnastics club that keeps the kids enthralled, excited and learning all of the time. Since starting gymnastics here at Baskervilles about 6 months ago my daughter has come on leaps and bounds with confidence and abilities in her all round movement. She looks forward to the classes every week and we are grateful to have such wonderful coaches including Lizzie and all Of the rest of the wonderful team that they have. X :)

Fantastic experience: Emma’s fitness classes are fantastic. She is so enthusiastic and gives off such a positive vibe, you can’t help but leave with a smile of your face and feeling great. She is very knowledgeable, caters to all abilities and pushes you to level that is right for you. Not only that, she’ll give your little one a cuddle when they need, to enable you to continue your workout without too much disruption from the kids/babies! Very highly recommended.

Fantastic experience: Our daughter has been to the classes at Broadlands Academy for a couple of years and she really enjoys it. There’s a broad range of fun activities, and the coaches, in particular Amy, have really helped with her confidence which has grown massively.

Fantastic experience: ✨✨5 STARS ✨ ✨My daughter joined Baskervilles 9 years ago as a toddler, her passion, talent and love for gymnastics was recognized by the fantastic team of coaches. She quickly progressed, through the classes and joined the squad team. The support, knowledge, encouragement and warmth from her coaches is phenomenal. Her love for gymnastics, has created and supported so many aspects of her life by fitness, self belief, friendships, success, determination and so many more! As a family run business I have always found them extremely easy to approach with any questions, whilst maintaining a very high professional standard. Thank you Baskervilles for being fabulous, keep up the hard-work. ♥️

Fantastic experience: Cant recommend Baskerville gym enough. My son started at the main centre in gym tots but now attends the reception class at the satellite centre, Broadlands Academy in keynsham. The set ups the coaches come up with are great, each week is varied. They work on so many different skills. The satellite centres are great and the gymnast don’t miss out on anything from not being at the main centre. My daughter has only ever attended Broadlands and has progressed through the classes, she has learnt so many new skills. All the coaches are so kind and encouraging always taking the time to help each gymnast individually. Helping them grow in confidence. If you are thinking of joining one of the satellite centres you won’t be disappointed. ☺️☺️ My son and daughter love their time in the gym.

Fantastic experience: Starting gymnastics as an adult, couldn't have come to a better place. Paul, Ricky, Jasmine & the other coaches all do a fantastic job of building you up & teaching the necessary skills to progress. A well equipped & welcoming facility.

Fantastic experience: My daughter has been attending Baskervilles for 3.5 years now and she continues to thrive in the sport that she loves. Baskervilles were very welcoming, the friendly and supportive culture they have made her feel immediately comfortable which has allowed her to flourish She started off with a virtual taster session during lockdown and when she was able to attend in person quickly progressed onto the Advanced pathway before being selected for the Squad Pathway where she now trains and competes in the Mini Squad. During this time she has competed in various county competitions individually and as part of the team, achieving podium positions against other Gyms on Floor and Beam, as well as achieving overall first position two years in a row for the competitive Rising Stars Competition for her age group. The coaches are super supportive and give regular feedback on how she can work to improve her gymnastics. Baskervilles are friendly but competitive, fun but hard working. Their competitive results speak for the standards they expect of their gymnasts (p.s. it’s high!). I’m so glad my daughter has the chance to progress through Baskerville's development pathways and I look forward to seeing her excel in the sport she loves.

Fantastic experience: I cannot say enough positive things about Baskervilles @Broadlands School! As a parent, I am thrilled with the experience my daughters have had at this fantastic facility. The staff are not only incredibly skilled and knowledgeable, but they are also passionate about what they do. They create a supportive and encouraging environment for children of all ages and skill levels. My children both started with little to no experience in gymnastics, and I have been amazed at the progress they have made under the guidance of the dedicated coaches here. The facility is clean, well-maintained, and equipped with all the necessary equipment for gymnastics training. Safety is clearly a top priority, and I appreciate the attention to detail in ensuring that the kids are safe while they learn and have fun. They also make sure they are aware of any difficulties. In addition to regular classes, the gymnasts also get to showcase their progress and build confidence by presenting to the parents at a watching week. Our groups are also included in the competitions where they always seem to score top marks. I would highly recommend Baskervilles at Broadlands School/Academy to any parent looking for a gymnastics program that goes above and beyond. The positive impact it has had on my child's physical abilities and self-esteem is truly remarkable. Thank you Baskervilles for being such an outstanding part of Keynsham!

Fantastic experience: Baskerville’s is a fantastic centre for kids of all abilities! I work with a child with a disability and have been bringing them to the gym for the last two years. Paul is an excellent instructor, with his knowledge, patience and kind nature, he has helped this kid to reach incredible heights, not only with motor skills, but also confidence. It has also helped them to take on new and fun activities that enrich their life. The facilities are top notch and all staff are very friendly!

Fantastic experience: Baskervilles has been brilliant for building my pre-schooler’s confidence – both physically and socially. Over the last year, our quiet 3 year-old has been gently brought out of his shell by coaches who genuinely understand how to get the best out of every child (whether they’re a whirlwind of confidence, or take a while to warm up). He now comes out of his sessions buzzing with pride, and has surprised us with his eagerness to perform new skills in front of his Baskervilles classmates. Thanks so much to Tess, Liz, Bev and Michelle for their hard work in recognising exactly what our little one has needed at each stage – he loves your classes, and they've become the highlight of our week.

Fantastic experience: All my children have done Baskervilles classes at various ages and they love it! A great combination of fun, well structured sessions, building on a range of basic skills from week to week, from babies and toddlers upwards. Highly recommended.

Fantastic experience: Our little boy has been going to the playgym here for almost a year. He absolutely loves it, the instructors are all incredibly friendly and encouraging. Tess the instructor who leads our session is amazing, our little boy has gain so much confidence in her tuition, which has really helped him progress. Would highly recommend it to everyone.

Fantastic experience: My two boys have been attending Baskervilles since they were toddlers. Enjoying GymTots, School Aged Gymnastics and now they are both part of the boys squad. They love coming to Baskervilles and doing gymnastics, not only is it great for their physical development but also their confidence and ability to concentrate. Paul, and the fantastic team of coaches, inspire the boys to achieve their best and have fun doing it!

Fantastic experience: I love Baskerville’s, their staff (particularly Paul) and their ethos. They have been a staple in Bath for decades since I went to school and took part as a kid and now again as an adult looking to improve my flexibility and fitness I couldn’t recommend enough.

Fantastic experience: Baskervilles Gymnastics has been a huge part of our weekly routine with our three children for the past 6 years. We are fortunate enough to benefit from their wide range of classes; the school age gymnastics, boys squad, holiday courses, Sunday softplay and now playgym led by Tess with our toddler. This class is the perfect introduction to gymnastics, with a fantastic balance of free play, allowing the child to explore and try things at their own pace and then adult led - safely teaching them new age-appropriate skills and songs. Tess is very nurturing towards the children and the sessions are very engaging and enjoyable for both the child and adult. We were very sad to graduate from Emma’s magical babygym sessions and this has been the perfect next step.

Fantastic experience: My son has been attending Baskervilles Advanced freeG for 2 years now, 3 times a week. He has loved it. Paul is a brilliant coach as are all the coaches. Toby says it has been an incredible adventure and would love to come and see them all again! We are relocating o/s hence having to leave.

Fantastic experience: My daughter Ophelia is now almost 8 but started doing gym tots with the brilliant Michelle and loved it. When lockdown hit she really missed her weekly session and when allowed Baskervilles started offering lessons online. We were so fortunate to have the amazing Jazz. She was fun and patient and gave us things to work on during the week - a lifesaver in lockdown. She is a brilliant gymnast herself and so knowledgable but has such a lovely way with the children. My daughter now trains twice per week at Baskervilles. She’s met lots of new friends , it keeps her fit and strong and has given her lots of confidence outside the gym too. Well done Baskervilles for such an amazing offering to the local community. Oh , the holiday courses are great too and not just for advanced gymnasts.

Fantastic experience: Great

Fantastic experience: We've been so pleased with how well Amy and Baskervilles have worked with our son with special educational needs. They have persevered so well with him, have worked with us to make adaptations to the way they work with him and now he is fully integrated into the group! He really enjoys going to gymnastics and has developed really well here. Thanks Amy and team!

Fantastic experience: I couldn’t recommend Baskervilles enough, my daughter started at satellite class with coach Ricky, my daughter gained confidence and ability during Ricky’s, Ricky was/is very patience and gave good honest feed back with help my daughter progress quickly through fast track etc. All the coaches that we have come across at this club are amazing but for me and my daughter Ricky set the foundations for us, and made the transition to the club seamless and enjoyable -Thank you

Fantastic experience: Baskervilles is a fantastic family run business, who provide an excellent service to the community, in a happy, caring, and safe environment. My daughter trains with the Senior Squad, her coaching team are amazing! They are dedicated, patient and encouraging, and have helped my daughter progress so much, especially in developing her confidence and overcoming her fears. This is reflected with her recent success in competition and her willingness in training sessions to learn new skills. A special thanks to Jazz and the team for all your hard work, both Evie and I are so very grateful. 5 stars all round!

Fantastic experience: My child started with Baskervilles through a satellite class and quickly joined their Englishcombe site. That was nearly 4 years ago now! We have loved watching him progress, gaining confidence and a sense of identity as an athlete, under the caring instruction of the staff. Baskervilles has been fantastic for my child and has helped to make him not only a good gymnast, but a good sport and team member as well.

Fantastic experience: My daughter Florence has 1:1 sessions with Steph and we couldn't be any happier. Steph has really taken the time to get to know Florence and understand her. Florence loves coming each week and her confidence is growing week by week. Thank you!!!

Fantastic experience: My two children love Baskervilles. They both started in the pre school classes and progressed through the development pathways and are now in the girls and boys squad level competitive classes. They have both been nurtured by the coaches throughout their time there and throughly enjoy the hours they spend at the gym. The confidence my daughter in particular has gained through gymnastics is brilliant. She is very fortunate to have this experience and have a training centre so close with the facilities she needs.

Fantastic experience: I cannot recommend Baskervilles enough, both my children go here. Matilda (13) started when she was 8 and was quickly moved to the advanced and then squad pathway, and in 2022 won Baskervilles gymnast of the year which was so exciting! Arthur (12) also attends Baskervilles and was on the intermediate boys pathway, but has recently moved to a FreeG class at Bath sports centre - he loves it! Both Matilda and Arthur are also being trained and guided through the Baskervilles coaching pathway, this is a wonderful and successful program producing lots of amazing coaches! 5 HUGE stars for Baskervilles ⭐️

Fantastic experience: All 3 of my girls have attended Baskervilles over the last 10 years. Recently I’ve started pre school gymnastics with my 2.5 year old and it’s brilliant. A combination of fun play and themed activities using the gym equipment and gymnastics. We look forward to this session every week! And the staff are amazing in every way.

Fantastic experience: My three girls absolute love their gymnastics class at Baskervilles. I cannot speak highly enough of the amazing coaches who consistently show enthusiasm and commitment towards every child they encounter. Sessions are well- structured, progressive and fun and give every child the opportunity to understand and practice the skill in hand. The high staff to child ratio means that every gymnast can be given consistent encouragement and feedback to further their gymnastic skills. Children are motivated at all times and really enjoy working towards regular badge testing. The progression of each child is monitored closely and appropriate classes are offered accordingly. A special mention goes to the holiday sessions; from Olympic Day to Ninja Warrior and Gym Fusion, my girls have been keen to try them all out! Awards Day remains a firm favourite!

Positive experience: The coaches at Baskerville are really supportive and encouraging. Been really impressed with Coral and Kieran in particular - they’ve really gotten to know the girls and make them feel at ease. Both my girls have attended recreational classes for the last couple of years. They enjoy the weekly classes and it’s a great way to keep them active and develop a good range of movement. They don’t love the competitions which are not great for recreational gymnasts - a few kids come away with all the medals. Overall its not the club with the best value for money. Despite being a not-for-profit, the fees are comparatively high compared to other activities and level award medals, comp fees are always extra. But overall, I do recommend the club if your kids are wanting to try gymnastics.

Fantastic experience: My daughter has been going to Broadlands Academy with Baskervilles since September and has come on so much with her skills. The staff are so so lovely with the children and are really approachable. My son has recently joined and is so far enjoying his sessions as well!! Thanks guys!!

Fantastic experience: All three of my children attend Baskervilles and have done from a very young age. I cannot recommend highly enough. Both for physical development, and more broadly, for discipline and resilience, this will stand them in good stead for the rest of their lives, whether they pursue gymnastics in future or not. The Baskervilles management, coaches and supporting team are all thoroughly professional and are so supportive of the kids, regardless of ability. A beacon of the local community; long may it continue to thrive! Thank you.

Fantastic experience: My son and I have been attending the Baskervilles Gym FreeG and adult classes respectively since late last year and it’s now the thing we both look forward to doing the most each week! As someone in their 40s with no prior gymnastics experience myself I was a little unsure of what to expect at first, but all the coaches are so friendly as well as professional and provide amazing support and encouragement whether child or adult and whatever your ability! The adult classes are quite popular and so after a warm-up and bit of conditioning are typically split into groups based on experience to work on 2-3 skills a session which works well. If you’re looking for a gymnastics center with great facilities and fantastic instruction while providing a fun environment then this is it!

Fantastic experience: I attend weekly classes with my son and we both love it! We’ve been doing it for over a year. Very friendly staff and great facilities. Couldn’t fault the place only one improvement would be a working vending machine for a cold drink after class :)

Fantastic experience: Our son who is now in year 1 has been going to Baskervilles since he was a baby attending the softplay sessions. Even after a long break during lockdown he was excited to go back and now it is his favourite part of his week. All of the coaches are so wonderful and really are brilliant at what they do. Our youngest son has just moved up from baby gym to the parent and toddler class and also loves it so much. Can’t recommend enough

Fantastic experience: Two of my children attend Baskervilles & always look forward to going & have a good time. The Gym has a wonderful environment & is very well organised. All the Coaches are fabulous Role Models to the children & participate with all the training. Teddie has gymnastics classes a few times a week and Toby is an excellent Instructor .. xxxx

Fantastic experience: Both my children have been attending Baskervilles for a while now and absolutely love it. They really enjoy their weekly lessons, and the holiday courses that they attend. The coaches are fantastic and support their development with care and consideration. I also really love seeing the class that Baskervilles run each week at the school I work at: the children are engaged and to see the team working their magic out in the community is a real bonus.

Fantastic experience: Baskervilles is such an asset to the community. They cater for the whole family and nurture their young gymnasts, as a family we are so grateful for the resilience they helped build in our young gymnast and the confidence she gained with the kind, sportive and friendly coaching of Paul, Emily, Alice, Vicky, Amy and Ricky (and so many more). They take the time to get to know each and every child despite the number they must see ever week. Adult gymnastics has, in the last few years become my absolute favourite hobby. The coaches (The Jacobs, Cieran and so many more) support, encourage and have such fun with us. As an adult, it’s so easy to forget how to have fun. I have to do a massive, massive shout out to Toby. Even after the worst day at work, Toby has us in fits of laughter. His warm ups are so helpful in preventing injury (and as I’ve got older, I’ve really recognised the importance of a solid warm up). His coaching is incredibly helpful and he keeps us very safe. He pushes just the right amount that we are consistently improving and will always find a way to accommodate even the most inconvenient of requests for equipment. If anyone is thinking of trying adult gym, don’t hesitate - it’s the best thing on in Bath.

Fantastic experience: Cara has been with Baskervilles for the last 8 years and loves it. She has developed her skills from an early age and become a well rounded gymnast. The coaching sessions are brilliant with a mix and focus on flexibility, strength and gymnastic skills. Cara has also worked as a demonstrator and loves this side of gymnastics. All of the skills and confidence gained has stood her in good stead at secondary school where she can shine as a gymnast and already knows girls throughout the school (Hayesfield). A huge thanks to all of the Baskervilles family and especially Katie McG who has given her the confidence to tackle the higher vault.

Fantastic experience: The best adult gym sessions! They're always fun and I've learned a lot since going. I've been in gym for most of my life and Baskerville's coaches are some of the best! They're very kind and knowledgeable, and they've been happy to help me with specific skills I've wanted to work on. The gym itself is also great and very well managed. 10/10 would recommend.

Fantastic experience: Amazing gym with supportive and enthusiastic coaches. Always very inclusive, would recommend to everyone from complete beginners to more experienced gymnasts

Fantastic experience: I’ve attended adult gymnastics here for the last three years on and off, and it’s been one of the most amazing constants I absolutely adore. Ricky, Jacob, Ollie, Toby, Amy, Paul are so lovely, and so patient with everyone, and it's one of the highlights of my week being able to go. I absolutely love this place, and it's been something which really got me through my 4 years at uni and I have made some brilliant friendships.

Fantastic experience: I can't recommend the adult gymnastic sessions highly enough!!!!! Whether you're complete beginner or an advanced gymnast, the sessions suit all levels, with a combination of warm-up, conditioning, stretching and skill practice. All classes are fully guided by the most amazing team of coaches who explain the skills, help improve techniques, offer encouragement, provide safety supports (when required) and are just generally wonderful!! The classes are attended by people of all ages and from a range of different backgrounds but everybody is so lovely and friendly. It really is the best fun ever!!!!

Fantastic experience: So very impressed by Baskervilles and would thoroughly recommend! The freestyle gymnastics ‘FreeG’ with coach Ollie at Bath Sports Centre has been a massive hit and is my child’s favourite club - 10/10. They love learning the flips and tricks in a safe environment and there’s even more to get involved in at their main gym on Englishcombe Lane with all their fun, focussed and friendly staff. Thank you!

Fantastic experience: I nanny for a child who has been coming to Baskerville's for years. She used to go in the Baskerville centre when in pre-school and since starting school now attends at the trampoline park in the leisure centre. I just wanted to say how much she absolutely loves coming! She told me she likes doing cartwheels the best and loves that she goes on the trampolines. She always comes out with the biggest smile even after a long day at school! She often talks about how much she loves Ollie, her instructor, and she's got so confident with her gymnastics now doing it as much as can (doing Roly-polys down the landing waiting for her nightly bath!) We 100% reccomend and think this will be a favourite for years to come!

Fantastic experience: My daughter has been attending Baskervilles for over 6 months now from the start of her Reception year. She goes in every single time excited and ready to engage. The coaches are brilliant and the level at which gymnastics is being taught is both age-appropriate and professional. My daughter has made huge progress both as a gymnast and a person. The coaches are empathetic while expecting discipline, which helped my daughter perform to a high level of expectation while having fun. She has learned to listen to instructions, cooperate and take turns and perform as part of a group. If there is just one club or course that you sign your child up for, this is the one to consider! Thank you Ollie and Paul and everyone who is helping make Baskervilles a fun place that helps little ones grow!

Fantastic experience: Olly is really gifted in making things fun and engaging for young children. We love these classes.

Fantastic experience: My daughter has been going to Baskervilles for the last 6 years, working her way up through the girls squad pathway. Throughout her time at Baskervilles she has had supportive coaches who have encouraged her to reach her full potential and follow her goals. Not only has she learnt different skills in gymnastics she has also learnt how to be resilient and persevere. Rosie is a happy and confident child who really thrives on the structure and routine. She has built great relationships with staff and feels safe and secure in the environment at Baskervilles gym. I hope she continues her journey at Baskervilles for many more years.

Fantastic experience: Both of my girls attend Baskervilles, one at the Englishcombe lane site and the other at one of there satellite sites Culverhay, both sites are very well equipped, with a range of different things set up, both of my daughters are coached by Emily who is amazing she has coached my girls for over a year she is so friendly, patient and overall brilliant with the children teaching them new things and routines, and helping them develop existing skills and confidence. All the staff get to know the children individually, and are friendly and helpful, my daughters love the competitions and galas they hold, (especially watching the coaches routine) they also do 1/2 term clubs my daughter enjoys the awards one and the ninja one, I can’t rate them enough they are all very professional and great at what they do.

Fantastic experience: Great staff,have had parties here pre COVID was always a great event Paul was amazing with the party group

Fantastic experience: I really enjoy the adult exercise classes at Baskervilles. Emma is full of energy and while she inspires you to work hard, there is no pressure and you can work out at your own level. I’ve noticed a real difference in my stamina, muscle tone and happiness. The staff are all really friendly too.

Fantastic experience: My youngest daughter attended a drop-in session at Baskervilles one Saturday afternoon 9 years ago, and that started her love of gymnastics. I highly recommend Baskervilles because it is such a friendly club with great facilities. They welcome all ages (babies through to adults) and all abilities too. The fantastic Baskervilles coaches recognised my daughter’s potential early on and she progressed quickly through to the advanced level squad, training twice a week and competing twice a year. Not only did the coaches develop her strength, flexibility and gymnastics skills, their constant encouragement also gave her self-belief and the confidence to perform to the best of her abilities in competitions, and most importantly enjoy them too. As a teenager, she still benefits enormously from gymnastics at Baskervilles. The club gives her a fun way to stay fit and strong, and see friends outside of her school group. She is also volunteering at the club as part of her Duke of Edinburgh award. Thank you to everyone at Baskervilles!

Fantastic experience: Wonderful family run gymnastics club! My son has attended for years and loves every minute of it. He originally attended at one of the satellite classes before moving to the main gym. All of the coaches are so friendly and encouraging no matter what your ability. They run amazing school holiday courses too!
