Welcome to Gym Magic
Gymnastics! We’ve been a USA
Gymnastics Member Club and participated in the USAG Junior
Olympic Program for boys and girls since 1993. We opened
our doors with the hopes of providing a fun, safe environment
for young kids to enjoy gymnastics and have grown into a
full multi-sport facility.
Gym Magic was founded
on the principle that all of our programs should help young
kids develop into healthy, happy and confident young adults.
We firmly believe children are our most precious resource
and are worthy of our greatest efforts. While gymnastics
is an exciting physical activity, we believe its best benefits
stretch far beyond fitness and physical agility. We
believe, when gymnastics is taught properly, it can be one
of the best tools to teach life skills (self-confidence,
courage, discipline, commitment, perseverance and mental
focus) because gymnastics is naturally fun. When these
positive traits are learned as a child, the possibilities
for that child become limitless! Now that’s something
to jump and shout about!!
We’ve been training
preschool, recreational and competitive gymnasts since
we opened in 1993. We moved to our new state-of-the-art
multi-sport facility in August 2004 and then expanded in
January 2006 by adding an additional 5,000 square feet upstairs.
Our gymnastics facility spans two floors: upstairs we have
Tumble Land for preschool gymnastics and downstairs we have
our main gym floor for recreational and competitive gymnastics.
Our gymnastics school is one of the largest in New Mexico
- we strive to provide children the best equipment and facility
available and to give parents a pleasant enviroment for viewing
classes.
Safety is at the top
of our list with special attention given to constant improvement
and continual upgrades of our equipment. The following
is a partial list of our equipment for gymnastics:
- 11,000 total square feet dedicated to gymnastics including
a private preschool gymnastics area for added safety with
age and size appropriate equipment
- Two Olympic-size, spring-loaded, foam-padded floors
- Quad bars for safe development of bar skills
- Two vault runways and vaulting systems, including one
into our foam pit
- Seven balance beams at various heights
- Rings with an extra safe landing area
- An in-ground trampoline with mat-covered springs
- Two pommel horses, one horse and one mushroom for pommel
training
- A 40 foot, in-ground Tumbl Trak, a special trampoline
to teach tumbling safely
- Two sets of parallel bars
- An in-ground foam pit with a bungee/trampoline system
for incredibly safe landings
- A 20 foot rod floor, an extra-bouncy tumbling surface
leading into the foam pit
- Two sets of uneven bars
- An interchangeable high bar
system with spotting platform, including a men’s high bar, women’s
single rail and strap bar over an in-ground Resi-Pit
- Lots and lots of competition grade mats
- A traverse climbing wall for upper body strength and
FUN
- Two observation areas, one upstairs and one downstairs
- A concession stand with drinks and snacks
- A pro shop with leotards, t-shirts and more
- A total of seven bathrooms right off the viewing areas
- A changing table and toddler play area
No one in the region
has a comparable facility, period.
The best equipment in
the world won’t get kids very
far without good coaches. And at Gym Magic, our coaching
staff really shines!! Our gymnastics coaches (as in all our
programs) are hired first for their love of children
and great attitudes and secondly for their skill and knowledge
of their sport. Our coaching staff is USA Gymnastics
Safety Certified, whether they’re teaching toddlers
or competitive team members, plus attend weekly staff training
meetings on safety and technique. Our coaches also attend
national, regional and local training clinics to stay abreast
on the latest coaching methods.
