A brand-new modern gymnastics centre is set to open in Stoke-on-Trent next year.

The new facility will be based at Dimensions Leisure Centre in Burslem and will officially open on Saturday 6 January.

The centre will have a competition sized sprung floor with a range of international standard equipment as well as equipment for beginners.

Classes will run for children aged 3 to 15, as well as a regular class for adults. There will also be an invitational development pathway for children to progress advanced skills and lead to competitions.

The centre will have a range of standard equipment as well as facilities for beginners (Nub News).

Council leader Jane Ashworth said: "I am incredibly excited to see the Gymnastics Centre open in the new year, we have big plans for this facility. As part of our new approach we will be undertaking a brand-new development programme which we hope will continue to enhance the growth and quality of gymnastics in the city.

"With the centre opening in January, signing up your kids for gymnastics classes would be the perfect Christmas present. We have over 100 spaces and our friendly team are available to answer any questions you may have about the classes."

This comes as The City of Stoke Gymnastics Centre on Newcastle Street in Burslem will shut on Monday, December, 4, 2023. Some of equipment from this centre will then be moved to Dimensions Leisure Centre and works will prepare for the new opening.
