Mission

The mission of the Josephson Academy of Gymnastics is to help families develop happy, healthy, smart and good children in a positive, safe and fun environment.

Core Objectives

We Put Children First
We Have Fun
We Promote a Healthy Lifestyle
We Pursue Excellence With Honor

We Develop Good Character and Teach Positive Life Skills

Lessons at JAG extend beyond the gym and into life lessons. We actively seek to instill positive character traits and values in our students such as: trustworthiness, respect, responsibility, fairness, caring and citizenship. We teach and foster positive life skills and attitudes, including self- discipline, courage, perseverance, empathy, team work and the value of hard work and preparation. When our students are done turning cartwheels, they will have established a base of life skills that will undoubtedly assist them through all of their non-flipping years. In short, we measure our success not by the number of trophies on the wall, but rather by what each child can take with them once they leave the sport of gymnastics.

We Provide a Safe, Clean Environment

Here at JAG Gym, we always keep in mind the safety of our students. Our gym contains not only state-of-the-art equipment, but also several distinct safety features, including:

• Two loose foam, in-ground safety pits
• In-ground trampoline
• Earthquake-safe retrofit
• Specially designed preschool equipment for the unique needs of these pint-sized gymnasts

Our facility and the equipment are regularly inspected and maintained to assure safety. Furthermore, we expect our environment to be free of physical, emotional, and verbal abuse. Finally, the gym, bathrooms, and all public areas are thoroughly cleaned nightly. Maybe we are neat freaks, but we won’t allow your children to roll around on dirty carpets!

We Have Positive, Educated, Caring Coaches

Each of our instructors is USA Gymnastics Safety Certified and American Red Cross Certified in CPR and First Aid. They have undergone a third-party background check and routinely attend various clinics and conferences for continuing education purposes.

We Communicate with Our Families and Treat Them with Respect

We Serve Not Only our Students, but Families as Well
We are not just a gymnastics school — we are a family service organization. We:

• Provide weekly Kids’ Night out to allow parents an evening for themselves
• Run socials and events to introduce you to other families in the area
• Provide free Wi-Fi and a homework area in our lobby space
• Most importantly, we truly do care about your children.

We Treasure the Opportunity to Work with Each Child

We recognize that every child is incredibly special and we are honored you have entrusted us with these incredible little humans. It is our goal to make each child, regardless of age or ability, feel special each day they train with us. They will develop not only a stronger, healthier body, but also more self-confidence through our fun and exciting programs.
