Nicole Higginson
Level 4 coaching qualification in acrobatic gymnastics
I’m Nicole and gymnastics has been a big part of my life for nearly 20 years. Starting out as a competitive gymnast and progressed into coaching 12 years ago. I love working with gymnasts of all ages and the experiences can help these young people have through this sport.
I wanted to get involved with this new club to allow young people of all ages and abilities to take part in this sport. I also love the family and community feel that gymnastics promotes.
Over the last 12 years of coaching I have achieved my level 4 coaching qualification in acrobatic gymnastics alongside disabilities, pre school and freestyle add on modules. I also completed a BSc in Developing Athletes Through Professional Practice at Edinburgh Napier Uni.
In my spare time, I’m a competitive powerlifter and enjoy training for this. I love Disney films and enjoy going on holiday to Disneyland.
