The RG lessons at Crestar are for Recreation training only.
The trainers are Japanese teachers, from JACPAC.
Crestar hire them, to teach our local girls in RG.
Each year in early December :-
girls from all Crestar branches (Marine parade + Hougang + another branch) come together, combined to perform a great year end concert performance, at one of the Sports Hall.
This year end concert is a result of our children' one year training in RG.
Last year on 1 Dec 2013 :-
many (local Singapore + Japanese) children from K1 to P6, performed at Delta Sports complex.
Youngest age to join JACPAC RG is kindergarten K1
(The year the child turn 5 years old)
The mid to upper primary girls performed & danced very well, at the concert.
They spoke in Japanese, over microphone, to the spectators watching the concert.
If you are looking for competitive RG training, maybe consider elsewhere.
At Crestar -
kindergarten (K1 & K2) kids start training early using (ribbons, balls).
They start off at Level 1 (basic, elementary level) first.
When reach higher level, then they start to use club, circular loop.
Many of these kindergarten kids subsequently join CHIJ family girls primary schools, Marymount Convent, Paya Lebar Methodist primary, or other schools that have Rhythmic gymnastics as a cca, in their primary schools.
They come to Crestar early during (K1, K2) to acquire some basic foundation training /background, familiarize themselves in RG first, before take up RG cca later when they enter primary schools.
Here is training timetable schedule for Rhythmic gymnastics, at Crestar (Marine Parade):-

Bt Timah.........ok I know of this coach who charges very reasonable rate and teaches near Coronation in one of the evenings. I will check with her if she can take you in for that evening class as that class are for more experienced gymnasts. Do you have some prior training or absolutely none? Are you in for recreation or competition cos she is coaching for competition. She will ask me these questions.
There is also Tiong Bahru CC where a reputable coach teaches on weekends. That class is more for recreation.
,
Alternatively you can go for private coaching by a former National Champion and judge. She teaches at Sengkang but may consider travelling to your place and do 1 to 1. Very patient and focused in her training. She also uses this VibroStretch Technique which is especially effective for late beginner as one will be able to do the split after 1 to 2 sessions on the Vibrogym machine. My daughter could touch the floor after 2 sessions when she was previously always a good 10cm away. Really frustrating for her. For the vibrogym facility you don't have to travel all the way to Sengkang. It is available at Newton.
Let me know which you are more interested in and I can let you have the contact details. For the coronation class I have to get back to you. Help me answer those questions above. Cheers.
thanks for the information. I have absolutely no training, and I don't mind going for both. But of course, I'd have to start out with recreational first right? Please give me the contact details for the private one and the coronation class. Thanks!!
Could you give me the details for the coronation one? Thx -
Hi,
I have read the previous pages of this thread, and I would just like to ask, is Kym Rhythmic Gymnastics still running or has it closed down? -
I am looking for a pre-loved rhythmic gymnastics competition leotard for my 12 year old. Let me know if you are selling or renting yours?

Hi,
School of Rhythmic Gymnastics will be starting an all teens class for beginners. Sat 11am-1pm but it is not confirmed yet. So those who are interested can enquire and register! -
hi, just wana share that I've started to let my boy learn gymnastics lately too, and he enjoys it a lot! rather than playing at home, i think its good that he has some enrichment and activities to keep him occupied!
and exploring art classes and also reading classes! -
Those staying in West Singapore and are interested in Rhythmic Gymnastics can go join the one at Raffles Gymnastics Academy

if you’re serious about learning Rhythmic Gymnastics and keen to join school team -
you should find out who is that specific RG coach attached to your dd school, responsible to train the girls.
instead of joining any RG training school, at random.
it’s much more effective this way !
because whoever coach that’s been attached to your dd particular primary school to train the girls in RG, is always on the constant lookout of talent pool, to join school team. And they have specific criteria to look out for, for girls keen to join school team.
if your dd go to another RG coach -
their criteria & training style may be different from that of the specific RG coach that’s been attached to your dd school.
if you’re not sure who is the specific RG coach in your dd school -
can call up your school, ask to speak to the Tr in charge of RG in the school.
This Tr in charge is not the coach.
But she’ll know who is the RG coach, attached to your dd school. -

are engaged by some popular schools specializing in Rhythmic Gymnastics.
Pang Qiong selects those who are truly outstanding in RG and only those selected by her can be trained by her. You cannot request for her to teach your child. The child must have the potential before she will teach.
As for Shen Yang, she is very strict in her teaching of RG to girls from school teams. A very popular coach engaged to train the girls' for school teams in school and for competition.
If parents want the children to go school team, be prepared to learn externally (at RG schools) as well as internally in school. -
