| Since it’s establishment
in 1973 the Iowa Gym-Nest has demonstrated a continuous commitment
to excellence in women’s competitive gymnastics. Over the years
Iowa Gym-Nest athletes have won numerous state, regional, and
national championships. The Iowa Gym-Nest is a member of USA
gymnastics and currently has approximately 70 athletes competing
in levels 4 through 10. |
 |
 |
Because of time and space
constraints positions in our competitive program are limited. As a
general rule we have more interest in our team program than we can
accommodate. Therefore, participation in our team program is by
invitation only and is determined by ability, attitude and
parental interest.
In keeping with our mission
statement we have never measured success in how many medals are
won at a competition. Our goal is to help develop strong, healthy,
confident children through the sport of gymnastics. Our definition
of success is helping each athlete reach her potential as a
gymnast, and as a person.
