Excellence Gymnastics Academy������

Gymnastics is an amazing sport for children, and it’s so much more than just learning a cartwheel. Children often start at 18 months, with some programs catering to infants as young as 6 months old. Increased selfconfidence and physical activity alone are great benefits that are gained from gymnastics. And, while the physical rewards are great—such as better flexibility, strength and coordination—the mental growth children gain is just as important with increased independence and discipline, as well as improved social skills and enhanced self-esteem. Excellence Gymnastics Academy— or EGA for short—inside Gunners Fitness Center on Camp Foster offers an outstanding gymnastics program from day one.

Launched during the fall of 2020, EGA is led by Ms. Tiffany Mills, Gymnastics Program Director for MCCS.

Parents can expect a clean, safe and fun environment for their children to learn in, and classes are offered at the recreational gymnastics level for kids of all ages. Tumbling and conditioning classes, as well as a hint of “Ninja Warrior” type fitness classes, are available as well. Those looking for gear, accessories and apparel can visit the EGA Pro Shop, which offers leotards, shorts, T-shirts, headbands and more in both child and adult sizes.

All EGA updates—including hours of operation, registration information, pricing, class descriptions, upcoming events and more— are posted at mccsokinawa.com/ gymnastics.
