KIPS Gymnastics

Stony Plain, Alberta

Our Mission Statement

As a member of the community it is our goal to ensure that every child is able to participate in gymnastics in a fun and recreational environment.  The club will do its due diligence to make sure every opportunity is given to every child.

Welcome to KIPS!!

KIPS is a community based gymnastics program which is a member of the Alberta Gymnastics Federation (AGF) and follows the can-Gym Badge program.

Our club is located in Mink Lake Hall and is a "Setup and Take Down" club.  This means that we setup and take down our gymnastics equipment each season and if the hall is being used for another function. 

One of our goals is to provide an environment where students can come together and have fun, exercise, and learn new skills.  Another goal is to teach new skills and give opportunities to the gymnasts that they might not get somewhere else.

KIPS participates in a variety of events with similar clubs in Northern Alberta.  All these events are optional and are a way to promote the sport, increase self-esteem, and create memories for a lifetime to come.

• GymFest - GymFest takes place each spring and our team has participated in this event since 2006.  This is a team-based event where we create a group routine. On the Saturday of the weekend event, we participate in workshops (e.g. Hip-Hop, cheerleading, rhythmic gymnastics).  Then on the Sunday we show our routines.  There are about 50 clubs that participate in this event from all over Alberta
• Fun Meets - we have participated in several fun meets where the gymnasts put personal routines together on each apparatus and show them at competitions hosted by other clubs.  We have been to Falher, Spruce Grove, St. Albert, Red Deer, and Lacombe.
• Workshops - we have participated in workshops hosted by other AGF clubs and have had fun learning acro-yoga (team yoga), cheerleading, circus fun, tumbling, and much more.

We are always looking for new and fun ways to keep everyone motivated.  We seek events we can participate in that will elevate our skills and to have fun.  Gymnastics is a fun and life long sport.  Everyone can do this sport at any age!!
