Prahran Rhythmic Gymnastics Specialist Centre (PRG) is a leading Rhythmic Gymnastics (RG) club in Melbourne, Victoria, catering for gymnasts of all levels, in both National and International streams. Our club was incorporated as a non-profit, parent-run club in February 2007, after the closure of the RG High Performance Centre (run by Gymnastics Victoria). We are proud of our High Performance program that produces Australia's leading gymnasts, as well as our National Program that shows that Rhythmic Gymnastics is a lot of fun. Our training venue is one of the best in Australia, with full time dedicated RG floor of Olympic standard. This provides a consistent, professional quality training area used in the highest level of competitions. The spring wooden base of our floor allows for safe landing during jumps. Our 35m (well above world standards) ceiling allows our gymnasts to practice their apparatus skills to the heights required at World Class senior competitions. PRG has priority access to the venue 6 days/week – before and after school and all day Saturday. This makes us the only club in Victoria to have this level of the venue availability, which allows us to offer a high number of training days. |
