I registered my both daughters in gymnastic lessons last year. Before registration, I called the centre to make sure these classes fit my daughters' needs. My younger one cannot be in a very busy environment. I explained them the situation and the staff nicely responded me and made me satisfied that this is a great place even for the kids who have such challenges. In the first day (during the pandemic), I was shocked as I saw many many kids in different groups but in the same place. The place was super busy and loud, exactly what I was not expected. My daughter had a very bad day. I called the

The facility and the instructors and the programs are top-notch. All four of my kids are in different levels and they all LOVE going to gymnastics. Gymnastics has to be the best way to encourage/teach fitness to young kids. I wish I had started doing what I see my kids doing.

My daughters followed Head Coach Celia Champion from her previous gymnastics club. At the beginning, the club was a small club but over the years has grown to become one of bigger clubs in Winnipeg. Just over a year ago they moved into new facilities and the place is amazing. My girls love it there and have made some really great friends along the way. Highly recommend that you check this club out for your son or daughter.
