What is CAlisthenics?
Calisthenics is a uniquely Australian Sport that incorporates light gymnastics, theatrical dance, march, song and the use of apparatus in the forms of rods and clubs to create performances that involve timing, leadership, rhythm and flexibility.
As a sport, Calisthenics aids in improving co-ordination, flexibility, posture, balance, mobility and self-esteem, as well as providing and excellent source of exercise and general well-being. There are different levels of Calisthenics, with some clubs being for recreational purposes, however St. Marks operates at the various competitive levels within each section. Calisthenics at the competitive level, require beautiful, fancy and comical costuming and leotards.
Successful competitions are worked towards during the first two thirds of the year, however the prime objective of St. Marks Calisthenics Club is on enjoyment, fun and social interaction between our participants and families.
