KCGA Newsletter — October 2025
Our first edition — celebrating milestones, new classes, and competition achievements.
Welcome Message
From Stefan, CEO & Founder
Welcome to our very first KCGA Newsletter! 🍂
This October marks a special milestone for our Academy — from launching new Saturday classes to our first gymnastics competition, our community continues to grow stronger.
Thank you for trusting us with your children’s development. Your support means the world to us and inspires everything we do.
Student Spotlight ✨
This month, our gymnasts have been working hard on handstands, cartwheels, and balance skills. We are so proud of their energy, progress, and the joy they bring to every class.
Each week, we see more confidence, stronger fundamentals, and bigger smiles — that’s what makes gymnastics at KCGA so rewarding.
Coach’s Corner 👩🏫 — Meet Coach Silvia
With over 25 years of gymnastics experience, Silvia is a two-time World Champion and three-time European Champion. She holds a Level 2 British Gymnastics qualification and is passionate about helping children develop discipline, confidence, and a lifelong love for gymnastics.
Silvia says:
“Working with children is especially rewarding — their energy and creativity inspire me every day.”
Her blend of elite experience and nurturing teaching style perfectly embodies our KCGA philosophy: boutique, personal, and family-focused.
Science & Health Tip 🧪
Did you know? Practising gymnastics improves all areas of children’s health and fitness — strength, flexibility, coordination, and even aerobic capacity.
Gymnastics isn’t just a sport — it’s one of the most complete foundations for physical and mental development during childhood.

— Mohamed Taher, Google Review
“We’ve had such a wonderful experience with Coach Stefan! He is incredibly patient, encouraging, and truly dedicated to each child’s progress. My daughters always look forward to their gymnastics sessions — they’re learning great skills and growing in confidence. It’s clear both Coach Stefan and Coach Venia care deeply about building confidence and technique in a positive, supportive environment. We’re really grateful for their effort and energy each week. Highly recommended!”
