In the spring of 2026, Hawth Gymnastics is
40 YEARS oLD
On Sunday 31st May 2026 Hawth Gymnastics will be celebrating FORTY YEARS with a large-scale display and showcase in the main hall at K2. It will be a large scale event – with lighting, music and choreographed routines & displays. The performances will take the audience through 40 years of Hawth History with themes based on music/events/films from the last 40 years.
There will be two performances, one at 11am and one at 3pm. Most children will only take part in one of the performances.
Practising for this display will be the main focus of all Preschool & Recreational sessions for the next half term. We encourage ALL our members to take part in this fantastic opportunity to showcase their skills and watch others do the same.
Our squad gymnasts - from development to top level - will also be taking part and putting on a amazing show for everyone. More information regarding what squad gymnasts need to prepare will be communicated directly by their coaches.
There may even be a coaches’ display….!
All the information that our Recreational & Preschool Gymnasts and parents need to know can be found below - please read carefully!

I’M SUPER EXCITED ABOUT THIS - WHAT DO I NEED TO DO NOW?
You do not need to let us know that your child is taking part. We will assume that everyone is taking part - and everyone will be practicing within their regular classes.
You need to order a 40 Years T-shirt for your child. We are also selling limited edition jumpers (in two designs) that are an optional extra. All orders must be placed by 26th April. Order HERE
Spectator tickets can be purchased HERE. As we are in the main hall - there is no limit on the number tickets that each family can purchase.
Rehearsal Days
Although all gymnasts will practice within their regular sessions, we will be running two extra rehearsal days for our Recreational gymnasts - we recommend that children attend at least one, but they are not mandatory.
