Why Gymnastics?
Some experts say that the greatest benefits of gymnastics training for
children are physical: the
amazing power, balance, agility, and grace. Other experts say that the
benefits are to the mind: perseverance, poise, confidence, attention to
detail, and concentration. Which is right? Our staff
knows. The answer is, without a doubt, both. Sound gymnastics training is
for all kids.
Why Berks East?
The programs and services offered at Berks East are unmatched in the gym
club industry in the Pottstown / Tri-County area. Our history is one of
success – growth, learning and competitive – at all levels. Program
offerings at Berks East continue to expand and now include much more than
gymnastics - birthday parties, field trips, creative child development
(CCD), Dancetastics, and much, much more.
Berks East Teachers
We are very proud of our professional
staff here at Berks East Gymnastics. Each instructor is a
gymnastics professional and trained to safely bring out the best in
each child by encouraging each child to exceed their perceived limitations.
Our master staff has over 100 years of combined teaching experience. Each
