Anon Bay Area Gyms

[Anonymous (36f0)]

Hello - I’ve found some older threads on Bay Area gyms but wanted to see if there was some updated input out there. As far as I know, the best in the Bay Area/peninsula are Airborne, San Mateo, Accel. I read in another forum that the coaching philosophies are very different at each - can anyone expand more on that? I’ve had a not so great trial experience for my daughter at one of these, but wondering if a second chance is warranted.

Also, I’ve heard of/seen Bayshore Elite (Redwood City) Peninsula Gymnastics (San Mateo), and Gymtowne (SSF and HMB) but they have less upper level gymnasts/teams. Does anyone know of these or had experiences here?

When do you think about switching from a gym without many upper level gymnasts to one with a more robust upper level program?

Are any of the California Sports Center locations within your reach?

I used to coach there, and I think they're excellent (or at least, were when I was there 10 years ago).

Unfortunately a little over an hour away!

I know some coaches who were at Head Over Heels at various points in their careers. I don’t know their current reputation but if you’re in the East Bay that could be an option. We see them at meets occasionally.

Unfortunately not in the East Bay, but thank you! I’ve seen their name a few times as well!
