SSA Futures Melbourne Acro Sessions
SSA Futures is excited to announce a partnership with Bree Munroe that will provide a weekly after-school gymnastics Program for snow-sport athletes in Melbourne. As a former gymnast and Olympic aerialist, Bree is absolutely one of the best snow specific gymnastic coaches in the country.
Traditional gymnastic training promotes all-round physical development, muscular strength, joint flexibility, balance, coordination, core-strength and general spatial and aerial awareness, which are vital components to achieving success in all Snowsport disciplines. These sessions are targeted at all Snowsport Athletes driven to develop fundamental skills and maximise their opportunities to progress in the Performance phases of their Pathway.
Our ETP athletes currently train with Bree in Melbourne on a weekly basis, and we would now like to extend the opportunity for other aspiring snow sport athletes to experience the same program.
