Welcome to The Gymnastics
Academy at Empire!
Empire launched our Recreational Gymnastics classes in 2020. We offer a well-rounded gymnastics program with uneven bars, beam, and vault equipment added to our expansive list of Floor Training Equipment.
Our Gymnastics Program aims to introduce strength, body control, body awareness, flexibility, following directions, listening skills, self-discipline, respect, and courtesy for all coaches and other peers in class in a fun atmosphere. Empire Kids Gymnastics Academy also offers flexible schedules and a dedicated experienced team of coaches you and your young budding gymnast will love.

New Gymnastics Teams
Introducing our new gymnastics team program, XCEL Gymnastics, designed specifically for girls who are looking to transition from recreational gymnastics classes to a competitive team. With a focus on providing a less intense training experience compared to our Developmental Program, XCEL offers a smaller weekly time commitment and is more affordable. This program allows gymnasts to train year-round and participate in the exciting world of competitive gymnastics, while still leaving plenty of time for other interests and activities. Please note that admission to XCEL Gymnastics is by invitation only, and tryouts will be held as space permits.
