Kensington House
CLASS 3
Flagship Gymnastics in Kensington for Children Aged 7–11
At Kensington & Chelsea Gymnastics Academy, every child trains as part of a House — a close-knit group inspired by the traditional London school system.
Kensington House is our original and flagship gymnastics class, based in the heart of Kensington W8. First opened in 2022, this House represents the foundations of KCGA and continues to set the standard for our small-group, boutique approach to children’s gymnastics.
Our Original KCGA House
Kensington House holds a special place within the Academy.
As the very first KCGA group class, it has helped shape our coaching philosophy, class structure, and commitment to quality. Over the years, children in Kensington House have developed not only strong gymnastics skills, but also confidence, discipline, and pride in belonging to a House with history.
In 2023, one of our Kensington House gymnasts was awarded KCGA Gymnast of the Year, reflecting the consistency, dedication, and supportive environment fostered within this class.

Being Part of Kensington House
Kensington House is more than a weekly gymnastics class — it is the heart of KCGA.
Many families begin their journey here, and children often progress through the Academy carrying the confidence, habits, and values developed in this flagship House. It represents the spirit of KCGA: thoughtful coaching, small groups, and a genuine sense of belonging.
We are proud of the legacy of Kensington House and look forward to supporting each new generation of gymnasts training within it.
