Unlock Your Potential
Since 1986, we’ve made it our mission to teach gymnastics in a fun and safe environment that allows people of all ages and levels to build confidence while mastering technique. Browse our site to learn more about us.
At the core of our success is…OUR HEART. We love gymnastics, we love people, and we love helping people explore the joy of gymnastics at every level.
From pre-school (Gyminy Cricket morning daycare) to our recreational and competitive programs, including dryland training and birthday parties, all of our classes are designed to safely teach each participant at their own age, skill level and ability.
Each class is planned to be FUN yet CHALLENGING, fully ENGAGING for both coach and participant.
Kimberley Gymnastics has been serving the community with incredible staff that takes pride in keeping it organized, clean, and safe so we can provide the best experience to all our participants.
We are a non-profit society, and are grateful for the support of our families, our parents, our Board Members, and our sponsors
Kimberley Gymnastics & Gyminy Cricket Daycare/Early Learning
The Kimberley Gymnastic Society Mission:
" To provide toddlers, pre-school aged, and school aged children, youths and adults, in our community and the region with affordable opportunities to participate in gymnastics and related physical activities in an environment that is fun-filled, safe, and encourages fitness, health and progress of individuals.”
The Kimberley Gymnastics Club came into being in the late 1970s due to a demand from youth and families for the provision of gymnastics. It was incorporated as a Society on December 9, 1986. The Kimberley Gymnastics Society is a non-profit club with a volunteer board. Over the years, it was located in various places including McKim and Selkirk Schools, but the continual set up and take down of equipment made that arrangement difficult. The club is now located at 2015 Warren Avenue, in Kimberley, B.C. The building was originally purchased, renovated and transformed into a gymnasium by Mr. Tony Lazzaro so that gymnastics programs could become a reality for youth and families in the community. We did lose the building in Dec 2021 due to a arson fire and the City of Kimberley was able to rebuild with the insurance money on the building and it has been rebuilt as the building is owned by the City of Kimberley. AND with a generous donation from Columbia Basin and RDEK the city was able to add on a extra 500 sq ft for the gym club so we could have a proper floor and vault run. The Society leases the building from the city for 1.00/year but is responsible for everything in the building and is under a 5 year lease at renewal time.
The building is self contained, and is (size 49 feet x 95 feet). It has a carpeted foam block spring floor 42 x 42, one 8x18 foam pit, a vault run, a 10x17 inground trampoline, 3 beams , a single bar and and a uneven bar, various sizes of trapezoids, blocks, as well as a number of large and small skill pads, wedge shaped mats, crash mats and smaller equipment The club also has a upstairs for storage for the office, gymnastics and the daycare , it also houses the mechanical room and a kitchen area for staff, There is also washrooms, an office, and a small entryway.
The club currently offers programming for children of 5 years onwards to early adulthood, and it also allows for building rentals by other community groups and by individuals. And our popular Gyminy Cricket Morning Daycare Early Learning Monday to Fridays 9am - 12 noon for 2 - 5yr olds - must be potty trained or almost . Join Anytime
Welcome to Kimberley Gymnastics and Gyminy Crickets! We hope you are well and thank you for your continued support, patience, and understanding. We look forward to getting to know each family personally and renewing connections with those of you that were with us prior.
Our gym is most successful when both family and coaches work together to ensure success for the children. We look forward to your continued support and involvement in gym fundraisers, meets and gym activities. Please do not hesitate to contact your child’s coach directly or the administrator if you have any questions or concerns regarding your child’s gymnastics experience throughout the year.
It is a shared responsibility between members, staff and parents to follow all the procedures and protocols outlined by our club. We take responsibility of the health and safety of our staff and participants seriously and we plan to work together with you to create the best possible environment for our members at this time.
Please feel free to reach out anytime should you have questions or need clarification.
Our gym has a policy that parents are not allowed to stay and watch during practice sessions., Which means all programs are a drop off and pick up.
You are welcome to come in and meet the coaches and to discuss anything with the coach.
And you are welcome to pop in for a few minutes and check on your child at anytime.
This policy helps minimize distractions for the children, allowing them to focus better and learn more effectively. This environment has shown to greatly improve the children's concentration and skill acquisition. When parents are watching, children often get distracted and may not focus as well, which can affect their learning and safety. This policy helps us create an environment where the children can concentrate fully and perform at their best.
Another reason is it is easier and faster to get the number of kids we have in and out as the lobby area is tight and we lack the space for all as they only have limited amount of time between classes.
This is also for the LACK of Parking outside, especially for the neighborhood as in the past we had numerous complaints on parking where they should not and we want to avoid this, otherwise the bylaw officer will be there handing out tickets again.
We do not have the space to accommodate parents staying the entire time unless its under special circumstances (arranged with the head coach, high needs athletes, support worker etc) and it can be disruptive to the class and for certain athletes with high anxiety and with the number of athletes in some of the classes we need all spaces in the gym and especially for certain participates we need the front area and tables and chairs area to be clear of others as sometimes that is their space.
We understand that you want to watch your child's progress, and we appreciate your interest in their development. We do have designated viewing days where parents can come and watch their children.
Thank you for understanding. We're committed to providing the best environment for all the children to learn and grow.
We do not own the building and we did not have any real say in the building process. The upstairs is for staff only and their personal belongings, so we cannot just have all access to everyone and it has a small staffroom kitchen area. There is also a safety factor of stairs and liability and since we are limited on space, it is also storage for the daycare, all recreational and competitive gymnastics programs, meet supplies and office supplies and paperwork. And it houses the mechanical room.
If you have any questions or need further clarification, please feel free to ask.
If you do not agree or feel comfortable with this policy you do have the right to remove your child from the program.

"SEE. BELIEVE. ACHIEVE."
Do you find yourself referring to your daughter or son as a little monkey? Is upside down their favourite way to be? Competitive Gymnastics may be the place for them!
The ideal time to start Interclub pre-competitive gymnastics is age 6-7. We have an incredibly fun and exciting developmental program. Certified coaches use games and fun activities to teach basic skills, increase strength and flexibility, and encourage a love for gymnastics.
Gymnastics is a year-round sport. The competitive season lasts from September to June (with fun summer training camps offered sometimes throughout July & August).
Competitive athletes do attend meets and it is mandatory to atleast attend our own Coconut cup meet in June and volunteer in person at it and participate in Fundraisers.
They train anywhere from 3.5 - 13.5 Hours per week on Mondays, Wednesdays or Fridays.
We offer several levels of competitive training, all designed to promote progressive, structured learning in a safe and healthy environment.
Competitive artistic gymnastics is a rewarding, yet challenging endeavor which requires hard work, dedication and commitment. The benefits of such efforts are many and are highly valued by all members.
Our Competitive Programs are athlete-centered and coach directed to enhance the pursuit of personal achievement and the search for excellence. From our young pre-competitive and developmental athletes to our provincial team members, we develop strong minds in strong bodies able to with the challenges of being a competitive athlete
Tryouts are required to become an athlete in our Competitive Program.
Children who show the qualities, skills, commitment and interest in competitive gymnastics are invited to set up an evaluation with the competitive head coach who will assess the gymnast and give further recommendation based on assessment. All Competitive classes require more planning, preparation, choreography, more coaches and coach training.
Competitive Athletes are expected to achieve a certain level of skills in their category prior to competition. Should an athlete not acquire that skill level, coaches will make the decision on what category athletes will register in for that meet. This is the expected protocol of athletes going to meets. The main goal for any athlete going to competition is to experience success and have fun! It is mandatory to attend all 10 months and volunteering in person at our Coconut Cup Meet at the beginning of June weekend. Non-Refundable Fees are calculated on 37 -38 weeks of training & choreography, music, supplies, Insurance , Gymnastics BC memberships , cleaning and divided into 10 months from Sept to June. ** Extra Training Hours not prepaid with monthly fee will be charges at $20/hour** **Extras: Team suits, Track suits, Out of town meets , working coconut cup in person , participate in Fundraisers

Benefits
Sports, especially fundamental and movement education based sports like gymnastics, provide tremendous benefits for children with special needs. Physical education programs can considerably improve the lifestyle of a disabled child and are highly recommended. These programs may help control obesity, promote activeness, increase a child's self-image and social skills, and increase motivation. The physical activity along with support, rewards, and interaction can, among other benefits, be very helpful to these children and their families.
Physical Improvements
Children suffering from cognitive disabilities are most likely going to suffer from physical impairments as well. These children have substantial problems with motor skills in areas such as hopping, skipping, and jumping. Involvement in gymnastics can help these individuals develop fundamental motor and physical fitness skills.
Self esteem
Developing a sense of self-esteem and confidence is an extremely important part of special education. These children need to be involved in environments where they feel that they are contributing successfully to a group. Their abilities in all other skill areas will improve as a result of a positive self-image and confidence.
Cognitive Benefits
The hands-on aspect of sports leads to cognitive skill improvement in children with disabilities and allows them to discover and access strengths that cannot be challenged in the traditional classroom setting. The inherent structure of sport, with its organization and rules, can be used as a learning tool for introducing and practicing self regulation and decision making skills. Additionally, children can learn verbal communication and interaction with peers through involvement in sport.
Volunteer
Although we endeavour to create a budget that relies upon fee-based revenue, operations and equipment must sometimes be supplemented with fundraising activities.
Volunteers are integral to the running of the Club – our Board of Directors is comprised of parent volunteers, and every event requires volunteer participation to be successful. In addition, there are several ongoing projects throughout the year, such as cricket and gym maintenance and janitorial, lost and found, recycle, etc.
We are aware of the demand on your time as a busy family and as such, we want to make the best use of the time given to us that will be of the most benefit to the club.
We want to thank everyone for all the help anyone is able to provide to us no matter how little or big it is - What matters is that you are able to help us out anyway you can and we truly appreciate it!
Volunteer opportunities
Cleaning: The Gym is cleaned daily. However, every 2nd week, staff does a more thorough cleaning. This involves clearing the floor, vacuuming the carpet and entryway, mopping the mats to clear away chalk (better for our airways), and fluffing the foam pit and cleaning the windows. In addition, the Crickets toys are cleaned with a light bleach solution and wiped down. By keeping the gym clean, we reduce the spread of cold and flu germs. Give us a call, or send an email if you would like to help us out! We need you!
Gyminy Crickets Crafts and toy cleaning support: Please speak to Staff if you would like to help out by cutting out crafts, park days, making play-do, organizing craft cupboard or running errands to look for special items for upcoming Crickets activities. Take home a tote and clean the toys.
Other: Baking - when needed for certain events, posting signs around town, table setup for a event, helping with recreational/competitive meets events.
ALWAYS NEED HELP WITH : Coconut Cup Meet - various roles
We are a not-for-profit society.
“Volunteers do not necessarily have the time; they just have the heart.”
Sponsors
Successful Collaborations
We gratefully acknowledge the financial support of the Province of British Columbia through the Ministry of Community, Sport and Cultural Development.
A Huge thank you to our sponsors, who throughout the years has generously helped and made our club a possibility
Kimberley Gymnastics has a huge financial burden paying a professional coaching staff and support staff to help with the everyday duties. The support you give will help us to maintain our equipment, our facility and help with staffing costs. There are also many other sponsorship opportunities available, including gift in kind donations, funding new equipment to sponsoring an entire competition and training. In return for your generous donation we make every effort to recognize your community support with recognition on our website, in our newsletters, emails and on our gym walls. And if you are thinking of sponsoring equipment we will put your company name on it.
With your support we can afford to provide top level coaches to our most valuable assets – OUR ATHLETES!.
The athletes in our competitive, recreational, playschool, freestyle and special needs programs and their families will be the beneficiaries of your generous sponsorship. Your support will be added to our operational funds (unless specifically designated). This revenue source allows us to host competitions, maintain and purchase new equipment to help our athletes stay at the top and train in a safe environment.
With over 100 athletes (not including parents) entering our facility weekly, your business will be well exposed, not just to our gym but to the Kimberley Gymnastics visitors as well. Gymnastics is no longer viewed as a sport only for those who like to flip or who are extremely flexible.
Studies have shown that the benefits of any form of gymnastics training can be carried over into any other sport and enhance the athletes performance. Over the past few years, Kimberley Gymnastics Club has seen an increase in facility rentals from clubs and athletes in different sports looking to maximize the benefits of gymnastics and improve in their own sport. Freestyle skiers and snowboarders have all trained at Kimberley Gymnastics Cub in an effort to better themselves for their respected sports.
