Baskerville School of Gymnastics
Baskervilles is a family-founded organisation where everyone in the family can get fit and have fun!
Baskervilles is a not-for-profit organisation with all profits reinvested back into the business for the benefit of our members.
Founded over 40 years ago by teachers Robin and Barbara Baskerville. Baskervilles employs over 60 full and part-time coaches with a wealth of experience in gymnastics. Robin and Barbara’s three children Emma, Vicky and Paul manage a team of professionals who provide a stimulating and educational environment for all ages and abilities.
As well as our hub centre on Englishcombe Lane, Baskervilles run weekly gymnastic classes in a number of locations in and around Bath. We offer fun-filled pre-school, school-aged, freestyle and adult gymnastics and fitness classes.

What People Are Saying
“Such a friendly, inclusive environment. My child has been attending for just over a year and I am so pleased with the progress and confidence she has gained during this time. The instructors are very supportive and knowledgeable, making sure that every child goes away having learnt a new skill. Diddy’s cafe also adds a lovely touch with great coffee while we wait and watch!”

“I highly recommend Baskervilles! It is family run business with fantastic facilities and the experienced coaches are so supportive, encouraging and knowledgeable.
My eldest daughter has been attending classes at Baskervilles for over three years. Coming to Baskervilles is one of the highlights of her week and watching her develop a love for gymnastics and progress so well has been an absolute joy. Not only have her gymnastics skills come on leaps and bounds, but she has also enormously grown in confidence and self-belief through attending the classes, which benefits her in all aspects of her life. My youngest daughter now attends the Play Gym class, which both her and I love! It allows me to spend quality time with her in a happy, engaging environment whilst watching her develop physically and socially with the support of fantastic coaches. I cannot wait to watch her to progress up through the stages over the coming years like my eldest daughter has. Thank you to everyone at Baskervilles and I highly recommend it!”

“I struggle to put into words how valuable Baskervilles is to our family. My oldest boy is four and we've been going to classes since he was six months old. Every coach we've encountered has been so incredibly kind and accommodating. I recommend Baskervilles to everyone and anyone! My oldest son is incredibly reserved, but with the patience and understanding from his current coach Tess, he is thriving! Both in gymnastics ability and personal confidence. Thank you Baskervilles.”

“Baskervilles is a fantastic family gym with high quality coaching and a welcoming, inclusive approach. I honestly can’t recommend it enough. I have one child in a Baskervilles competitive squad, and one who has 1:1 coaching sessions because of his disabilities. Baskervilles caters superbly to each of these sets of needs, and both children absolutely love their time there. The gym has become almost a home from home for us as a result, and we look forward to family gym, competitions, Halloween parties and Christmas galas throughout the year too. Thank you!”
