Essendon Keilor Gymnastics Academy

My daughter has always loved going to gymnastics here. The friendly team and atmosphere has always made it a happy place for my child.

EKGA is such an amazing club and we could not be happier to be part of it! Over the past 5 years, our children have enjoyed, gymnastics classes, the school holiday program, gym camp and celebrated a birthday at the venue. We honestly are number one fans of this locally run gymnastics school. The coaches are incredibly energetic, fun, passionate and really encourage all participants to reach their full potential in a safe environment. Even over lockdowns, the staff went that extra mile to ensure all their gymnasts were still getting their training in to the best of their ability. Everyday they sent us a range of activities for the kids to do from word finds, skills and challenges, in addition to their online classes. They just have so much to give. If you want a gymnastics school with real heart, look no further. These guys absolutely live, breathe and rock the gymnastics world.

If your child has a talent go for it , if not you are just used to pay off the elite and squad gymnasts . Coaches taking recreational classes are mostly at a very junior level and some are from overseas and so don’t expect much from them if your kids are at recreational levels. Dislike this ‘class segregation of coaches ‘. Place is really dirty too.

This is a brilliant setup for young children. We've been coming to EKGA with all three of our children over an 8 year time frame. A fantastic opportunity for children to climb, bounce and play in a safe environment - all while playing with children their own age. Staff have been faultless in our time here, I'd highly recommend to all parents!

I cannot recommend EKGA highly enough!!! Having started while only their outdoor classes were an option over a year ago, my girls have both improved their skills and their love for gymnastics. The Squirts classes for my younger daughter are run with fun circuit style activities with a parent’s involvement, which really help support her gross motor skills that I’m currently focusing on developing. My older daughter has also come a long way in the time since we have started. Her skills improved significantly to gain her selection into EKGA’s pre squad group, which she cannot wait to start next year.All the staff are very approachable and super friendly and even on an admin level, I have to say, the way the business is run is second to none. Well done guys.

My daughter absolutely LOVES her weekly Monkeys gymnastics class! The team at EKGA are so patient and considerate of the little ones, and recognise that all kids are different, and therefore adapt their teaching style to match the children. It's obvious that they do not adopt a one size fits all approach to teaching gymnastics at EKGA. They did an amazing job during covid to adapt their lessons to whatever rules were in place at the time, to ensure the kids could continue to get their gymnastics fix. Thanks team!

My daughter and son have been attending EKGA for 2.5 years.I have been continuously impressed with the growth I have seen. The staff are friendly, kind, patient and most importantly encouraging. Safety is paramount as is cleanliness. I would highly reccomend EKGA for children of all ages and abilities.

Amazing gym! We have been attending EKGA for over 8 years now. Both my daughters love it. The staff couldn’t be more supportive and caring. They were our saviours during one of our daughters cancer treatments, we couldn’t be more grateful! Then made sure to keep the kids involved & active during covid lockdowns, by implementing a variety of online training sessions and fun nights. This definitely broke up the monotony of lockdown life!EKGA always make sure the kids have fun while learning some amazing skills that can be transferred to everyday life, such as confidence, determination and trying your best.

EKGA truly is awesome - my 3 yr old has finally started this year now she's old enough after having watched her 5 yr old brother for the last couple years. The coaches are so great with the young kids - and at keeping my 5 yr old managed in particular (well done Lauren & Grace in particular!). The gym and equipment are top notch (coming from an old ex gymnast myself) and the techniques used to teach the kids are fun and engaging whilst still progressing their skills. Would definitely recommend
