BRAZEAU GYMNASTICS CLUB
About Gymnastics
Gymnastics is a sport that includes exercises requiring balance, strength, flexibility, agility, coordination, and endurance. The movements involved in gymnastics contribute to the development of the arms, legs, shoulders, back, chest, and abdominal muscle groups. Alertness, precision, daring, self-confidence, and self-discipline are mental traits that can also be developed through gymnastics.
If this sounds good to you and your school aged child (or children) we have classes for you.
About Our Club
The Brazeau Gymnastics Club is dedicated to enhancing & enriching lives through participation in the sport of gymnastics. We are dedicated to our athletes, their parents & our coaches in providing a safe environment, cultivating confidence & strength and providing support to all members.
We started the club in 2013 because so many kids wanted to try gymnastics, with the only option being to drive into the city, which was not a great option for many, especially young families.
We started the club at Whitby Hall, which was our home for 2 years. Although we loved the venue it had some challenges, including having to set up and take down all the equipment every night. We are so grateful that we were able to run a full program and build a local gymnastics community.
In 2015 we relocated closer to the Town of Drayton Valley within the Poplar Ridge area of Brazeau County. The first space we had was small, but it was ours - no more setting up and taking down daily. The program grew, and we moved a few spaces down to our current location at 6426 - 50 Avenue Brazeau County (Poplar Ridge area).
Today BGC is triple its original size, and is continuing to provide a welcoming environment for athletes. Our club is focused on continuing to be full of active, happy kids with quality programs.
Our Team
Our club is run by a volunteer Board of Directors. The board is made up of BGC parents and members of the community with an interest in the success of the club. The volunteers work to ensure the day-to-day requirements of the club are met to create a safe, positive and clean environment for our athletes.
Our coaching staff is dedicated to ensuring your young athletes have a positive experience, and gain skills that they can carry into the future, in and outside of sport.
