About Us
All Star Sports Centre
You’ll find something for children of every age and skill level. They’ll enjoy gymnastics, trampoline, tumbling and related activities. There’s an observation deck for friends and family to watch, a gift shop for your workout gear and even a snack bar serving healthy food and drinks.
We invite you to drop in to get a first hand view of the size of our gym and quality of our equipment and safety features. Better yet, you can come in for a tour anytime and our friendly office staff will be happy to show you around! They will explain how we are different than any other gym in the area. It may surprise you to find that there can be significant deficiencies in gymnastics facilities that are not readily apparent unless you know what to look for and which questions to ask. That’s why we created a free guide entitled, What You Should Know About Gyms.
Overview
Whether it be recreational or competitive, we teach athletes new skills in a safe, clean environment through positive reinforcement, lots of encouragement and coaches that simply have fun doing what they love to do. The end result is happy, healthy, self-motivated kids who continually return eager to challenge themselves to master new skills. They learn discipline, goal setting and the feeling of accomplishment that builds self confidence in all they do, and it lasts a lifetime. Many of our recreational gymnasts go on to higher levels and advanced programs and some will take training to eventually become coaches themselves.
Safety First
Our coaches are required to be certified by the NCCP (National Coaching Certification Program) and complete a risk management course to enhance their knowledge of injury prevention through gym layout, procedures, class management and effective supervision. Our Supervising coaches are required to hold current first aid certificates. Children are shown safety videos at the start of each term and the beginning of summer camp weeks to educate them about the safe use of equipment, traffic flow, importance of listening and warm-up.
Gymnastics Helps Athletes Improve In Other Sports
We have heard from hockey, dance, soccer parents and others who have told us that their child has suddenly excelled in other sports as a direct result of their experience at All Star Gymnastics. They developed a competitive advantage by becoming stronger, more flexible, agile and coordinated.
How All Star Athletes Are Evaluated?
Our curriculum for gymnasts 6 yrs and up adheres to the Canada-wide Cangym Level System. The 14 skill levels of the Cangym system have become the recognized standard used by a wide spectrum of athletes across Canada and around the world. All Star athletes are awarded ribbons in recognition for their accomplishments. Our Pre-school gymnasts use a curriculum designed by our Pre-school specialists to ensure that every child receives the basic fundamentals of gymnastics. This curriculum closely considers the ages and stages of child development.
