Gymnastics is Back in Brighton!

Our gymnastics classes run for 47 weeks of the year with a 5 week break period over Christmas. Classes do not run on Victorian Public Holidays or Easter Saturday.

In addition, each student is entitled to use a 4-week holiday suspension of their gymnastics enrolment each year, which must be used as a minimum 2-week block. You will not be charged for classes missed during your suspension period.

In order to enrol into one of our gymnastics classes visit our online customer portal. Existing families will need to log into their account and new families will need to set up both a family account and a student account.  Click here for instructions on how to create your account.

Your enrolment into our gymnastics class will be on-going to ensure you always keep your place in your selected class.

Class fees for gymnastics classes are paid monthly. You will be billed for your first month of classes at the time of enrolment and your credit card or bank details will be saved on your customer account for future monthly billing. Your direct debit will continue each month, automatically, until you cancel your enrolment.

Our billing is pro-rated with break periods and public holidays taken into account, therefore you will not be charged for your classes during break periods or on public holidays.

Yes, you can cancel your enrolment at any time by logging into your Customer Portal either using a web browser or the iClassPro App.

Go to your Account / Student (select the student) / Enrollments / and select the Drop Enrolment button. You will be prompted to select a drop date (date of the last class you wish to attend).

Enrolment cancellation requests must be received at least 5 days prior to your next monthly billing date, the first business day of each month, to ensure that you are not charged for future classes. If you wish to cancel your enrolment within a month that has already been charged, you will need to forfeit the payment for the classes that will not be attended. Refunds are not offered.

Once your enrolment cancellation request has been approved, you will receive confirmation via email of your/your child’s last class. After this date, provided your account has been paid in full (including the notice period) all payment details will be completely removed from our system.

Should a singular class be cancelled by Brighton Recreational Centre, you will be issued with a class credit for the cost of the individual class. Class credits will be applied against your next billing instalment.

Should the Brighton Recreational Centre decide to remove a class that you have enrolled in from our timetable due to a lack of enrolments, fees will be refunded in full and paid via direct transfer.

Brighton Recreational Centre’s gymnastics classes run year-round except for a 5-week closure over the Christmas period. In addition, each student is entitled to use 4 weeks holiday suspension of their gymnastics enrolment each year, which must be used as a minimum 2-week block. A credit will be applied to each class suspended effectively voiding the charges for classes missed during your suspension period. Your child will not be able to attend class during the suspension period.

Brighton Recreational Centre requires a minimum 10 days notice prior to any suspension.

To apply for a suspension to your enrolment, log into your Customer Portal either using a web browser or the iClassPro App.

Go to your Account / Student (select the student) / Enrollments / and select the Drop Enrolment button. You will be prompted to select a drop date (date of the first class you will be missing) Make sure you select Suspension Request as your reason, and include the class dates you would like to apply for a suspension.

Once your enrolment suspension request has been approved, you will receive confirmation via email.

Brighton Recreational Centre currently offers a FREE trial class for our gymnastics programs subject to availability. Trial classes are only available if there are places available in the class of your choice.  Trial bookings can be requested online through the customer portal, by contacting the Centre via email or telephone and can only be placed within 5 days of your chosen class.

Alternatively, you can enrol in the class of your choice, in the knowledge that you can cancel your enrolment if your child decides that gymnastics is not for them. You need only to cancel by the 23rd of the month to ensure that the cancellation is effective before the commencement of the following month.

If your child is unable to attend their regular class, customers will be entitled to 1 makeup class per month. To request a future absence, log into your Customer Portal using a web browser or the iClassPro App.

Go to your Account / Student (select the student) / and select Future Absences. You will be prompted to select a date for the absence and submit.

Absences submitted at least 1 hour prior to the class starting will be marked as excused, and a Make Up Token will be issued after the class.

Once the selected date has passed, you will receive an electronic “Makeup Token” which can be used to attend another class of the same level and age group, pending the availability of a space in a suitable class. Makeup Tokens have an expiry of 90 days.

Important Notice

Makeup tokens are not available for our Bright Stars Silver, Gymstar, and Development Squad classes, as well as Free G and Tumble & Tramp sessions. This is due to the fact that if you miss a class, there is no similar session available on our schedule to join. As an alternative to makeup tokens, we have increased your allowable suspension period to six weeks per year, with a minimum duration of one week.

If your child is unable to attend their regular class, customers will be entitled to 1 makeup class per month. To request a future absence, log into your Customer Portal using a web browser or the iClassPro App.

Go to your Account / Student (select the student) / and select Future Absences. You will be prompted to select a date for the absence and submit.

Absences submitted at least 1 hour prior to the class starting will be marked as excused, and a Make Up Token will be issued after the class.

Make up classes are booked by logging into your Customer Portal using a web browser or the iClassPro App.

Go to your Account / Student (select the student) / and select Makeups. Available Tokens are can be seen and selected to use your token for available classes. Dates will only be shown for the next 5 days as booking into the makeup class can only be made within 5 days of when the class is scheduled. A Makeup class must be utilised within 90 days of the date of the class for which the makeup lesson was claimed and the makeup token generated.

Note: In the last 5 minutes of each class, coaches will be available for student/parent interaction.

Class fees for gymnastics classes are paid monthly via direct debit. You will be billed for your first month of classes at the time of enrolment and your credit card or bank details will be saved on your customer account for future monthly billing.
