Are you a gymnastics enthusiast? Have you wanted to exercise more now that the new year is here?
Seattle Gymnastics Academy has recently opened wide its doors to Burien and the surrounding communities. It is conveniently located at Five-Corners next to PCC: 15840 1st Ave. S., Burien, with over 13,300 square feet!
There are many opportunities available to people of all ages! SGA’s mission is to “develop strength, skill, and character through progressive gymnastics and quality instruction.”
One great opportunity is the “Indoor Playground” session for preschool children 0-5 years of age. For one hour, your child can have the entire gym all to themselves (these classes are M/W/F, 12-1 p.m.) Parental supervision is required.
