Gymnastics at Camp Weequahic

Flying through the air. Cart wheeling on a soft, spring floor. Laughing and tumbling for an entire period. These are just a few of the joys to be found in the Camp Weequahic Gym, a full gymnastic studio perfectly designed to fit the needs of gymnasts of all levels.

Completed in 2009 and updated yearly, our gym houses an enormous spring floor, 40’ tumble track, balance beams, uneven bars, vault, and enough crash mats to keep even the camp director safe while trying to fly.

In addition to the modern equipment, the facility itself can easily transform from your ‘basic’ gym to an indoor/outdoor pavilion with the five large doors that open with a press of a button. This feature keeps everyone comfortable during a warm camp day or one of our few moments of rain.

However, more important than the equipment or building are the fantastic teachers who lead our gymnastics program. Attracted to Weequahic because of our shared values and the opportunity to teach, our gym instructors are all former gymnasts who have coaching experience and the ability to lead children of all experience levels.

The Weequahic gym allows girls who train year round the chance to keep their skills sharp while enjoying everything our traditional camp has to offer. For the girls who want to learn how to do their first cartwheel, we make the experience both fun and inviting by grouping gymnasts by experience level. And, when they learn how much fun can be had on the tumble track and spring floor, many of the boys get into the act as well!

We are thrilled to offer a specialized gymnastics program at Camp Weequahic and hope you will come enjoy the gym this summer!
