The Foundation of Trampoline Coaching
In addition to being the most popular activity in the UK for children with disabilities, the principles of Rebound Therapy form the foundation of all trampoline gymnastic movement. This course teaches structured progressions designed to help students continually develop while enjoying healthy exercise.
Because of its logical and adaptable approach, Rebound Therapy is widely recognised as the ideal starting point for trampoline coach training – even for those who don’t intend to specialise in disability support.
It is also Step 1 on the 3-Step Pathway to recreational mainstream trampoline coaching, making it a key qualification for anyone looking to build their expertise in trampoline-based movement.
