About HHGC
The Halton Hills Gymnastics Centre (HHGC) is a non-profit organization, dedicated to providing Halton Hills and surrounding communities with the opportunity to discover, explore and embrace the sport of gymnastics in a safe, stimulating and nurturing environment. The Halton Hills Gymnastics Centre (HHGC) was transformed from the original Halton Hills Gymnastics Centre whose roots go back to 1977 in Georgetown. HHGC was incorporated as a non-profit organization in 2005. It is a non-profit, volunteer led, professionally managed organization that depends heavily upon families supporting the Centre as well as on businesses of the community.
HHGC is proud to have over 1,000 participants annually. We draw athletes from Georgetown, Acton, Erin, Rockwood, Brampton and other surrounding communities. HHGC is the only non-profit gymnastics centre in the Town of Halton Hills as well as the only one offering the full range of recreational and competitive programs.
Vision
HHGC is a vibrant, thriving and inclusive group of community stakeholders including local youth, who are engaged in, and inspired by the sport of gymnastics.
Mission
To make positive and lasting change to the participants of the centre, through the provision of high quality gymnastics, tumbling, trampoline and other physical activity programs in a safe, stimulating and nurturing environment.
Programs and Facilities
The sport of gymnastics enhances both the physical and social development for all those who participate. Gymnasts can benefit from the simple accomplishment of learning a new skill, to the ultimate reward of teaching skills to new, young aspiring gymnasts. The club programs benefit all participants by enhancing a healthy, active lifestyle, personal achievement, increased self-esteem and self-discipline. It presents the challenges that foster courage, determination and hard work in pursuit of fun and athletic excellence.
The Centre offers a full range of progressive gymnastics, tumbling and trampoline programs, for both boys and girls of all ages and abilities, starting at 12 months old to youth, teens and young adults. Special activities and events include holiday camps, birthday parties, PA days, drop-in days and our famous year end show. We offer Competitive, Interclub and Recreational streams in gymnastics and trampoline and tumbling. Our fully accredited staff made up of former professional and national calibre athletes including an Executive Director, Office Manager, Head Coach and Recreational Director as well as over 30 part-time coaches.
Our centre is impressive with 15,000 sq. ft. including two gyms, 3 washrooms, a large gender neutral changeroom, parent viewing lounge, activity room and administrative office. Our Spieth Anderson equipment includes two 42’ X 42’ sprung floors, balance beams, parallel and uneven bars, 6 trampolines, 40’ Tumbl Trak, 2 vaults, pits, ropes, customized equipment for the youngsters and much more. Although HHGC specializes in gymnastics, tumbling and trampoline programs, it is also a home to many other fitness and sports activities.
Community Living HHGC opens its doors to everyone who wants to enjoy the great benefits of our facility, equipment and coaching. This includes groups of children, youth and adults alike with developmental disabilities and autism.
Connecting With The Community
Strong local partnerships have been formed such as the one with ‘Canadian Tire’s Jump Start Program’ which provides funding to families in financial need who wish to enroll their children in one of our great programs. Our gymnasts and their families are active in community events such as the Santa Claus parade as well as supporting other community organizations such as the ‘Adopt-a-Family’ program with ‘Links-To-Care’.
We provide great job opportunities and leadership training for local students. These young coaches are given sports, recreation and leadership training that will help them in their future employment and educational pursuits by instilling a solid work ethic and sharing our commitment to excellence. Local businesses also get involved in our sponsorship program by providing much needed equipment, services and funding.
Most importantly of all, we provide a healthy and welcoming environment for community members of all ages, abilities and backgrounds… At HHGC, EVERYONE IS WELCOME!
