Our gymnasts attend Regional Championships over the weekend, hosted at Hofstra University.
This was many of the gymnasts’ final competition for the year as only ten will attend Worlds this summer!

Hello everyone!
We have two VERY special events this weekend!
First, starting today through Sunday is the USAIGC Regional Championships! Diamond is competing as we speak, with Silver to follow shortly. Tomorrow, Bronze competes and on Sunday, Copper 1 and 2 and Gems competes!
On Sunday, we also have our Spring Dance Recital with dancers from all of our ballet classes performing.
We are thrilled for both events! This is the culmination of the entire school year. We can’t believe the spring semester is coming to a close!
Please leave your support for our gymnasts and dancers in the comments! 🩰🤸♀️
This month, gymnasts in Intermediate, Advanced Intermediate, All Stars & Advanced All Stars, Pre-Team and Gems have been focusing on front and back walkovers. Coaches use various techniques, mats and spotting, until gymnasts are able to complete the skills unassisted. As we’re nearing the end of the semester, gymnasts are determined to achieve these skills before they go on summer break!
