Aerobic gymnastics

The long-term ultimate goal of the sport of aerobic gymnastics is to be included in the Olympic Games.

In the rest of the world, the sport continues to evolve with numerous successful events being held with high-level athletes, judges and coaches being present.

The competitive aerobic gymnastics are governed by the Fédération Internationale de Gymnastique (FIG).

The sport was added in the biannual Idol Star Athletics Championships for Lunar New Year, 2017 as a male team equivalent to the female individual rhythmic gymnastics, and the scores are given in accordance to FIG Standards.
