History

Established in 1979.

Columbus Gymnastics Academy opened in June 1979 as an all boys competitive gym in Worthington, Ohio. After one year, the girls program was added. In 1985, CGA expanded by adding a second gym focusing on recreational gymnastics on the east side of Columbus. In 1990, the recreational gym moved to Americana Parkway in Reynoldsburg, and then in 1993, the competitive gym moved to a 22,000 sq’ facility in Worthington. The competitive program was very successful with a number of boys placed on the USA Junior National team while they were training at Columbus Gymnastics Academy. In 1998, the decision was made to concentrate on recreational gymnastics only, and the competitive gym was sold. The existing 10,000 square foot facility for Columbus Gymnastics Academy was built in 2000. In 2011, after adding a former Romanian Olympic coach to the CGA staff, CGA started another girls competitive program. Placement for the team is through a review process with the head coach.
