    WHY IS IT IMPORTANT TO WEAR
    COSTUME IN GYMNASTICS?
     The right clothing allows gymnasts to perform
    at their full range, makes it possible for judges
    to see the body in action, and also helps to
    decrease the risk of injury. Clothing not snug to
    the body could interfere in the performance of a
    gymnast, and they could face some real damage
    or a life-long health injury.
    What are the costumes used in
    Gymnastics?

    Acro Shoes

    Foot Thongs
    LEOTARDS
    COSTUME FOR GYMNASTICS
    LEOTARDS
     It is a unisex skin-tight one-piece garment
    that covers the torso that leaves the legs
    free.
     It was made famous by the French
    acrobatic performer Jules Leotard (1838-
    1870)
    DIFFERENCE BETWEEN MEN
    AND WOMEN LEOTARDS
     One major difference between male and female
    leotards, is that women's styles can often
    feature sparkles, extra materials, decorations,
    prints, and colours that are far more feminine
    and ornate, whereas men's designs tend to be
    much simpler, usually in a muted colour
    palette with no decoration.
    LEOTARD TYPES

    1. UNITARD

    2. SINGLETS
    UNITARD
      which are also known as body stockings 
     Type of leotard which covers not just the
    upper body, but the legs as well, and so can
    be thought of as a leotard with
    inbuilt tights.
    UNITARD VS LEOTARD
    SINGLETS
      are also one-piece garments, but unlike
    leotards that are cut high above the legs,
    singlets cover the top part of the legs rather
    like tight-fitting shorts.
     Singlets are mostly used in wrestling.
     It was tigthly-fitted, with inbuilt shorts
    to cover up to the mid-thigh area.
    SINGLETS FOR MEN AND WOMEN
    ACRO SHOES
    COSTUME FOR GYMNASTICS
    ACRO SHOES
     Acro dancers most often wear jazz dance
    shoes, which are commonly referred to as acro
    shoes by acro dancers.
     Acro shoes are called jazz boots, jazz ankle
    boots, jazz booties and other names, by their
    various manufacturers.
    ACRO SHOES
     The sole is made of soft, composite rubber so as
    to provide both high traction and cushioning, and
    it provides excellent protection from skin
    abrasion as it covers the entire bottom of the
    foot.
    ACRO SHOES
     They are typically laceless, slip-on shoes, with
    tight-fitting leather uppers that are designed to
    prevent the dancer's feet from shifting inside
    the shoes. Because of their thin, pliable leather
    uppers and split soles, acro shoes have
    excellent flexibility, thus enabling dancers to
    attain both good dance form and acrobatic
    control
    FOOT THONGS
    COSTUME FOR GYMNASTICS
    FOOT THONGS
     Acro dancers may wear foot thongs, which are
    variously called Dance Paws and FootUndeez,
    depending on the manufacturer.
     Foot thongs which are slip-on, partial foot
    covers that protect only the ball of the foot.
    Sometimes preferred over acro shoes for
    aesthetic reasons
    FOOT THONGS
     In
    particular, flesh colored foot thongs
    endow the wearer with the appearance of
    having bare feet, while retaining some
    degree of the traction, cushioning, and
    abrasion protection provided by acro shoes.
