Congratulations!

One of our top male competitive athletes, Alin, was featured in this month's issue of Strive magazine. In the article he talks about training and his goals for this season, including going to Western Canadian Championships. He is already well on his way to reaching his goal this season with a rank of second place all around at the first trials at Capital City in Edmonton in January.

One of our coaches (and former athletes) was also featured in the magazine. Through her hard work and dedication, Tiana has become a track phenom. We take pride in the accomplishments of our athletes in and out of gymnastics.

Keep up the hard work, Alin and Tiana.

Check out Strive magazine in the gym or read it online here.

Competition Results

Our competitive athletes have been busy these past two weeks! To check out their competition results, please view the Salta Training Video page.


Winter Session News

We want to thank all the parents that took the time to fill out the survey we sent out in the Fall 2012 Session. We are taking all your input into consideration and are looking at different changes we can make!

One area in which we plan on improving is to renovate both upstairs bathrooms and improve our front entry way to make entering and exiting the building on busy days easier.

As we are a not for profit organization, one way we can make these improvements sooner is through our fundraising efforts.

In classes this week, we will be sending out chocolates to sell. We have boxes of chocolate almonds and chocolate cranberries for sale at $3 per individual box. Please let your coach know that you have taken a box and have the monies and unsold chocolates returned to Salta by March 2, 2013.

As usual, we have prizes for our top sellers! Check out the Pre-School and Recreational bulletin board for more information!

New Year, New Session, New Coaches

Happy 2013!

We want to welcome you back to a new year and a new session at Salta Gymnastics. This is another record breaking session for us!

We also want to welcome four new coaches to our staff. Randa and Kianna were both competitive athletes with Salta and have come back to share their love of gymnastics with pre-school and recreational athletes. Kaitlyn enjoyed our recreational program as an athlete so much, she thought she'd come back and have twice as much fun coaching it. And lastly,  we welcome Alin, who is currently our top male competitive athlete.

Some new Junior coaches on our staff include Scout, Tianna and Olivia. All three have a lot of energy and enthusiasm to share with the recreational and pre-school programs.

Please say hello to the new faces in our gym and help us welcome our new staff!
