General Gymnastics is the basis of all Gymsports and a GymSport in its own right.

Clubs can utilise General Gymnastics as a starting point for teaching the fundamentals, before gymnasts specialise in any of the other 6 GymSports. Alternatively, clubs may focus on developing

General Gymnasts with diverse skills, adaptable to a variety of movement experiences.

General Gymnastics has been categorised by the International Federation of Gymnastics (FIG) into the following areas:

Apparatus
Gymnastics on and with traditional, innovative or creative apparatus
Playful apparatus gymnastics
Floor exercies and gymnastics

Gymnastics and Dance
Gymnastics with and without hand apparatus
Rhythmic gymnastics
Jazz gymnastics and jazz dance
Modern dance
Aerobic gymnastics

Wellbeing Fitness and Health
Activities which contribute to the health and wellbeing of participants

Kindergym and Cheerleading fall into the above categories and therefore come under the General Gymnastics Banner.
