KCGA Newsletter
Stories, Insights, and Milestones from Our Gymnastics Community
Updated: February 2026
The KCGA Newsletter is our way of sharing the life of the Academy — from gymnast achievements and events to coaching insights and reflections on children’s development through gymnastics.
Each issue captures moments, progress, and ideas that define Kensington & Chelsea Gymnastics Academy as a trusted, long-term gymnastics home for families in London.
Latest Issue
Issue 5 — February 2026
Our February edition continues KCGA’s calm start to the year with a clear focus on fundamentals, confidence, and steady progress across Kensington, Knightsbridge, and Chelsea. Featuring a refreshed Founder’s message, a Student Spotlight on Leonie’s journey, and Coach Silvia in Coach’s Corner, this issue also introduces our new permanent Director’s Competition Diary as KCGA prepares for the 2026 London Regional Gymnastics Championships. Alongside our parent-friendly Science & Health Tip on gymnastics safety, we highlight the January KCGA Video Update, Spring term dates, trials and places, a Knightsbridge parent testimonial, and the launch of Kensington Gymnastics Magazine — reinforcing the boutique standards and educational mission that position KCGA as a leading home for children’s gymnastics in London.
