In January of 1979, Olympia Gymnastic Training Centers began with an idea, a hope, and a great deal of enthusiasm. By 1995 over thirty-five hundred gymnasts throughout the St. Louis area attended one of the six Olympia locations per week. Today Olympia is one of the largest gymnastic training companies in the United States.

We provide progressions, skills, and technique for Beginner gymnasts through level 4. We have a very specific curriculum using the latest USA Gymnastics guidelines and materials. Our curriculum includes floor exercise, balance beam, uneven bars, vault, and basic dance. We review our curriculum each year and make changes according to USA Gymnastics revisions, updates, and latests trends.

My 17 month old takes the Tumble Bee class here. Every week she gets so excited when we pull up and she sees where we're at. She loves the balance beams and trampolines. In the 2 months we've been taking classes, she's learned to "jump" and walks great on the balance beam. Her teachers are great, supportive and when she hears the word bee, she covers up her hand because it's in the hive!
