Tumbling or whatever it's called IS gymnastics - one of several disciplines. I have a friend here in Norway who used to do this. He would make a good stunt guy in martial art styles. But circumstances will change a bit on the acrobatics when they take away the mats. I guess movie companies might save a few bucks when they don't need to use wires for some of the stunts. :)

Check the Men's 3rd board, 5th place.

Kaitlyn, this guy is an actual gymnast.
You don't need to be bulky for that. I did gymnastics for a couple of years, and unlike other girls, I was tall (5"7 at the age of 12) and looked more like a ballet dancer than a mini truck-driver. Everyone has a different body.
