Three Years On and Still Loving Every Moment
Excellent gym with highly qualified coaches who care about each child’s personal development. The gym also has a great atmosphere, and it is obvious how much everyone loves being there. As a parent I feel totally relaxed knowing my child is receiving great coaching in a positive and inclusive environment.

Athleta has given our daughter an opportunity to develop into her full potential. The support she has received from their highly qualified coaches and other gymnasts is incredible. Thank you Athleta for creating a safe place that she calls her second home.

Incredible Support Helping Our Daughter Reach Her Potential
Gymnastics has been our life for over 10 years. We have been to many clubs and had many many coaches in the pursuit for excellence. We even moved across the country to Melbourne to follow that gymnastic dream.! 3 years ago we arrived at ATHLETA then it was a brand new club with big dreams and a family oriented ethos. We found Nick, his staff, coaches, clients and children very welcoming which was not the norm. It was a big decision, but we liked the “feel” of the club so we jumped on board. 3 years later it has been a fantastic ride seeing the growth of the club and watching those dreams turn into reality. We are here and Athleta is now HOME! Athleta is nurturing and inclusive with world class coaches who want the best for every child, no matter if the goal is just fun and fitness or to represent Australia. Athleta is our family, it’s the best gym we have experienced by far. Athleta is evolving, improving and we will continue to be here not only to fulfil our dreams but to watch the evolution and go along for the ride. Well done Nick and team for creating a safe space.

World-Class Coaching with a Family Feel
My son originally trained here when he was starting out unfortunately we move an hour away and changed gyms. We have now come back to Athleta and travel an hour each way 3 times a week wishing we never moved.

Two Years In and Still Absolutely Loving It
Athleta Gymnastics has been amazing for my daughter since the day it opened. Over the years, she has had incredible coaches who not only teach with skill and passion, but also genuinely care about their athletes’ wellbeing. The culture here is positive and supportive. I couldn’t be happier with the environment, the coaching, and the values at Athleta. Highly recommend!

After the trial, our coaches will provide feedback on your child’s performance and recommend the best program for their development. You’ll also receive information on how to enrol and next steps to continue training.
What should my child bring to the trial class?
Please have your child wear comfortable activewear suitable for gymnastics (no zippers, buttons or denim). Bring a water bottle and any necessary medical items. Hair tied back off face.
Can I book a make-up session if my child misses a class?
Yes! We understand that life happens. Make-up sessions can be booked subject to availability. Please notify us as soon as possible so we can accommodate your request.
