Picture The Woodlands in 1984, a fledgling little development north of Houston.  Gymnastics is being taught to children in a basketball gym, often with a men's basketball game being played on the other side of a curtain.  Basketballs are literally knocking children off of the apparatus, and the language from the men's basketball game is, well, colorful. There had to be a better way, and  ACROSPORTS Gymnastics was the answer.

Opening our first gym in August 1984,  ACROSPORTS was born out of a desire to safely and happily train gymnasts.  In a little 6,000 square foot facility near The Woodlands, we began to implement our unique philosophy of gymnastics training.  Fun for the student was a big part of that philosophy, since if it wasn't fun they wouldn't stay in the program.  Safety was also important for obvious reasons while working with children.  Finally, making parents feel welcome to be a part of their child's activity became the third pillar on which  ACROSPORTS was built.

Now, eighteen years later, enjoying our new 20,000 square foot state-of-the-art facility located south of Houston in the bay area, having safely trained in excess of 15,000 children, the staff of  ACROSPORTS could not be more proud.  While we have enjoyed much success in gymnastics, and enjoyed watching our former students Keri Strug and Laura Wilkinson go on to be Olympic stars, we most have enjoyed watching our students become more self-confident and better-rounded individuals.

ACROSPORTS is quite proud of the hundreds of awards that our athletes have won, both locally and nationally, over the past 18 years.  We are especially grateful though, that we now have former students who enjoyed their time with us so much that they are now enrolling their own children in our program.  If there is a better confirmation that our philosophy worked, we don't know what it is.

We are sure that  ACROSPORTS will continue to win with our competitive athletes, now including tumbling as well as gymnastics.  However, we are equally sure that we will not compromise our philosophy of fun and safety just to win competitions.  From the child who can barely do a forward roll to the hundreds of former gymnasts who perform their advanced tumbling for their schools in front of the crowds, we are proud of all of our students.  Every child is a winner at ACROSPORTS, and every child benefits from having been a part of our program.
