From posts I've read on here I gather most gyms in the US are much bigger than they are here in Australia.
So how big is your gym? (I hear of clubs with 20+ girls per level all the way through, plus rec classes, we'd have to run classes 24 hours a day to fit everyone in, lol).
Most gyms here are one full sized floor area. Beam area - say 4 beams. 2 sets of uneven bars, one metal bar. Pit if you are lucky. Tumble tramp if you are lucky. Vault.
There are some larger and some smaller (some don't have a full size floor, or no pit or no tumble tramp).
One in our area has 2 floor areas and say double everything else. Even the big new main gymnastics centre (where all the major competitions are held) has similar to the above, though there is a men's gym, women's gym, rhythmic and acro gym - all in a row with screens to separate when needed so two floor areas can be used etc.
