We have recently implemented a new badge system for our advanced recreational female gymnasts, which begins after they earn their Bronze CanGym badge. Designed specifically for our gym, the program is composed of twelve levels that focus on the four main events in women’s artistic gymnastics. Our main goal with introducing this program is to provide gymnasts with additional opportunities for success, by placing more emphasis on their ability to master beneficial progressions ...and proper body positions. Participants will continue to be challenged as they work toward target skills, and upon completion of level twelve, they will have the opportunity to test into the final levels of the CanGym program if desired. According to a 2020 study done by Canadian Women & Sport, The Rally Report found that 1 in 3 girls are dropping out of sport by late adolescence. Participants in this study responded that low self-confidence, negative body image, perceived lack of skill and not being welcome were factors in their decision to drop out. We hope that by taking steps, such as implementing a new program that is a better fit for our club and its members, that we will be able to help retain girls in sport in our community. We strive to create a welcoming environment for all of our gymnasts and ensure that our classes focus not just on fundamental skill development, but also on inspiring a life-long love of fitness, in a fun way! Please reach out if you have any questions about this new badge system, or ask to take a look at the different levels next time you are in the gym.

Yesterday, the Government of Alberta announced an extension to current public health measures until at least January 21, 2021. These measures require our gym to be closed to all in-person training, which affects our ability to offer our winter gymnastics session as planned. It remains our goal to offer the session once it is safe to do so, however the session length will be shorter. Everyone that registered for our winter session has been contacted via email. If you have not... received this email (check your junk or spam folder just in case), let us know and we will supply you with the necessary information. New registrations will remain closed until we have a confirmed start date. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact us through messenger, at [email protected] or by phone at 780-728-8426 (Nicole). We look forward to seeing our gymnasts again soon!

Some new equipment arrived at the gym over winter break! Any guesses as to what is in the boxes?
