What is Calisthenics?

The name Calisthenics comes from the Greek words “kallos” for beauty and “sthenos” for strength. While this is the basic aim of the sport, the social aspect, and the confidence and self esteem building of its participants is considered to be just as important. 

Calisthenics is widely practiced in Australia and is recognised as a fun and healthy way to keep fit for children of all ages. It is a uniquely Australian sport which requires discipline of mind and body, team work, a competitive spirit and a sense of responsibility

Calisthenics, is the combination of Gymnastics, Ballet, Folk Dance, Jazz Ballet, Apparatus (Clubs and Rods), Figure Marching, Mime and Singing. The NTCA holds team competitions in September of each year as well as individual events known as Solo, Graceful Solo, and Duos in May each year.

Participants in calisthenics enjoy the benefits of:

Fitness

Flexibility

Co-ordination and rhythm

Sense of achievement

Musicality

Deportment and poise
