About

Gym Matrix was originally started as a mobile service providing gymnastics to schools and pre-schools in the Upper/Lower Hunter Valley areas. 

 

When attending schools for the Active After School Community it was obvious there is a significant deficit of sports programs in the Dungog and Stroud areas.  Having grown up in a isolated area, owner and coach, Jen Kendell has developed a program specifically for the country areas.

 

Gym Matrix has a great range of gymnastics equipment, including 3 balance beams of varying heights, rings, mini-tramp, thick high quality foam floor mats, horizontal bar, paralell bars, uneven bars, vault, foam wedges, parallettes, vault and balance board.

 

Each week, gymnast's will learn new gymnastics skills and refine those learnt.  They will work on fitness, flexibility, coordination and technique.  With great variety offered you will see a remarkable improvement to your child's coordination and importantly, their confidence.

 

Gym Matrix has recreational gymnastics programs at Clarence Town, Dungog, Singleton and Stroud.  For further information please head to our recreational program pages.  All recreational gymnastics enrolments are taken through an on-line booking system, Thinksmart.  This link can be found on our recreational program page with all relevant information.   Don't hesitate if you have any questions.

 

About Your Coach - Jen Kendell

As a child I thoroughly enjoyed gymnastics.  I started off in recreational gymnastics and ended up competing at State level.  I have the fondest memories of my times spent participating in this sport.  

I am now a mum of two boys, enjoying working with children in a sport I still love.

The importance of getting children moving has never been more apparent.  My programs offer fun and variety with a range of equipment to keep challenging all.
