My name is Jenny Arnold , Im a fitness Professional and Movement Specialist . When I found Celestina Popa Gymnastics . I had been looking for a Gymnastics club for my daughter for a few years .Being an ex gymnast myself I could not find the quality of coaching I desired for her . I was ex tactic to say the least when I found her . My daughter had just turned eight . Her experience with Celestina and her team of coaches was nothing less than extraordinary. As I know my sport . I watched her develop Confidence , motor skills , flexibility and body awareness. Her strength gains were amazing being able to climb rope , as well as learning many tricks and skills along the way . She was able to compete Inter Club with the guidance and support of Celestina and her coaches . She trained with Celestina until the age of 12 . Unfortunately she had to stop through no fault of her own . However her experience with Celestina has never stopped and lived on She is still keeping up her gymnastics any chance she gets . This sport and Celestina has given her so much more A life experience that she will remember to pass onto her own children. Just as I did for her . The opportunity to work with a World and Olympic Champion is one she truly appreciates and will Never forget . For myself . To have followed Celestina’s Career , to have loved and respected all her achievements despite all her adversities as an elite athlete . It’s an experience one can only EVER DREAM ABOUT . My dream came true . My daughters life was changed .. She has life long friends in her team mates who she sees regularly. Im so grateful to Celestina for all that she does not just for my daughter . For all the children's hearts and lives she touches everyday . Our Community is so Blessed to have her . . Celestina Popa Gymnastics should be every child’s experience. Jenny Arnold .

This is a great gymnastics club, My girls started there when they were just little girls. The coaches are great and it’s like one big happy family in there. I wish my girls still were competing in gymnastics. Was such a great experience watching all the kids grow up there. ?

My daughter has gone to Celestina popa for many years. We attended parent and tot programs, preschool programs as well as interclub and performance plus programs. Not only were the coaches exceptional with skill development but they were also wonderful supporting our daughters self esteem and confidence. The gym was clean and I always felt my daughter was safe. I would recommend this program to any family.

I had the pleasure of training at this gym throughout my childhood until I graduated from high school. Celestina and her amazing coaches helped support my journey as a gymnast in a safe, fun, and encouraging environment. Not only did I learn gymnastics, but my time at this gym also taught me how to overcome different obstacles and, most importantly, how to believe in myself. I recommend this gym to anyone who wants to learn gymnastics!

Oh my! Where do I even start... I did gymnastics at this gym when I was just a little girl! About 5 years old to the age of 14. Celestina, Toma, and coach alycia were all just another family to me! They taught me so much in life, and not only gymnastics but how to have the strongest mindset and to never give up! I truly love this gym with my whole heart as it was a huge part of my life growing up! I would recommend anyone to go there. I’m hoping one day I can send my kids to go there down the line! I miss them so much!

Our family has been a part of Celestina's gymnastics club for over five years, and we love it! Both of my daughters (ages five and seven) attend programs there. Celestina and her qualified staff are committed to teaching gymnastics in a fun, yet safe manner. We have had a very positive experience over the years, and my daughters' skills are continuously developing. If your child is interested in learning gymnastics, this is the club to attend.

My son and daughter both went to Celestina Popa Gymnastics over a few years. My daughter was there from the age of 3.5 and went on to their competitive training while my son was there from the age of 4 and stayed on the recreational level. Both my kids loved it. My daughter eventually had to leave gymnastics to pursue competitive dance but still has fond memories of gymnastics to this day. I found the coaches to be awesome and amazing at their jobs. Celestina was firm but when you watched her with the kids you can tell that she commanded respect but she was very kind and helpful when training them to do tricks and they loved her. She was awesome!! Coach Alycia was also amazing with the children and very approachable. My daughter loved her years of training there. And my son had so much fun. You can tell the children were having fun whether they were in the competitive section or the recreational section. Definitely an excellent place to learn gymnastics either for higher level gymnastics or for recreational level. I would recommend them to anyone. I will always think of them as our gymnastics family.
