2024 BC Gymnaestrada Heads Back to the 80's
May 6, 2024
The 2024 BC Gymnaestrada, co-hosted by Gymnastics BC and member club, Delta Gymnastics Society, took place over the weekend at the Richmond Olympic Oval, in Richmond. With the theme “Back to the 80's." the event showcased the vibrant era and all that came with it! Gymnaestrada provides the opportunity to celebrate movement and physical activity in a non competitive environment, while capturing the true essence of the ‘Gymnastics for All’ and ‘Active for Life’ philosophies of sport and recreation.
Participating clubs from across the province added to the atmosphere of the Gymnaestrada. We extend our gratitude to all the clubs that dedicated their time and effort to join us this year. The participating clubs included Britannia Gymnastics Club, Chimo Gymnastics, Club Aviva Recreation Ltd., Dreams Gymnastics, Gym Sense Gymnastics Inc., Illusions Rhythmic Gymnastics, Island Rhythmic Gymnastics Club, Pacific Rim Gymnastics, Pacific Shore Gymnastics, Pemberton Gymnastics, Polarettes Gymnastics, South Cariboo Rhythmic Gymnastics, Twisters Gymnastics Club, White Rock Gymnastics Athletics Society, and our co-host, Delta Gymnastics Society. This year we had 287 participants join us!
The first day of the 2024 BC Gymnaestrada was packed with exciting workshops. Participants engaged in activities such as Dance Class, Friendship Bracelet Craft, Parkour, and the Olympic Oval's Rox Experience! On the second day, the event featured two performance shows that showcased the clubs’ creativity and dedication to this year’s theme!
The success of the 2024 BC Gymnaestrada would not have been possible without the contributions of coaches, staff, workshop presenters, and volunteers. Their dedication and commitment ensured the smooth operation of the event and created an uplifting environment for all participants.
A special thank you goes out to the parents and spectators who cheered on the participants during the performances.
