Ex-Olympian Sarah Mercer, the Head of Gymnastics, is excited to share her passion for the sport with young athletes in Dubai. She said: “Gymnastics is a sport that requires dedication, discipline, and hard work, but it’s also a sport that is incredibly rewarding, both physically and mentally. At Wellfit Gymnastics JVC, we are committed to helping young athletes develop their skills and achieve their goals, while also having fun and building lifelong friendships.”
