THE Liverpool ACC played host to yet
another British
Gymnastics Championship, this time it was
the 1st of the 2015 summer series of the Rhythmic Gymnastics and Aerobic
Gymnastics 2015 British Championships. Held over 30 July to 2 August 2015, the
event had the best of Britain's top gymnasts showcasing their amazing skill,
starting on the Thursday with Rhythmic gymnastics. This incredible show had
gymnasts competing with graceful and very colourful moves as they displayed
their mastering the famous, ribbon, hoop and ball. This was a mixture of dance
and gymnastics. Then over the Saturday and the Sunday, both the Acrobatic
Gymnastics and TeamGym 2015 British Championships were held, plus the 2015
Liverpool Ministrada display. These skilled disciplines within gymnastics have
been made famous by performers like Spelbound and Cirque Du Soleil. It tests the
performer's ability to both work as an individual on the floor and also as a
member of a team. Gymnasts working in pairs or groups had to pull off the most
spectacular choreographed routines. These routines had them performing intricate
balances, exciting multiple somersaults and with partners being dramatically
thrown and caught. Again, just as with the Rhythmic and the Aerobic section,
this requires an extraordinary amount of skill, testing the gymnasts' limits and
pushing their ligaments to their limits. But this section also requires high
levels of courage and trust amongst gymnasts. The impressive routines provide
great entertainment. Both the Acrobatic and TeamGym proved to be of
extraordinary interest for those watching. Also with top gymnasts from
Liverpool's and surrounding areas, as well as from all over Brittan, this was an
amazing opportunity for local gymnasts and fans to see this action taking place
in front of them, live and to experience the diversity of this spectacular sport
in person.. If you attended, what did you think of this event? Please
