While we parents have it a little easier during the summer keeping our kids moving, the cold weather can sometimes force us to think outside the box, or should I say, the monkey bars. Whether they’re just learning how to toddle or doing somersaults in your living room, a gymnastics class or open-gym playtime is a great way to keep your kids from feeling cooped up. Here are 7 of the best gymnastics studios for you to check out in Bucks County.

Above the Bar Gymnastics

2235 York Rd., Jamison

Make your kids champions in all aspects of their lives! Above The Bar Gymnastics Academy works to develop fitness, confidence, and self-esteem through gymnastics sports. Their Winter Semester just kicked off (January 3rd through March 26th), but you can still grab a spot for your kiddos (ages 15 months through 9+) by calling 215-343-8872 to register.

“I highly recommend Above the Bar for gymnastics. Both of my children have attended regular classes as well as summer camp since they were 2 and both love it! Cathy, the owner, is a pleasure to work with. She is kind, fun, understanding, and has always accommodated us when special circumstances come up. As an early intervention pediatric Physical Therapist myself, I often recommend Above the Bar to my patients/families. Their hand-n-hand parent and me classes are a perfect and fun opportunity for building strength, balance, and coordination at an early age. Again, highly recommended!” – Local Mom Alyson Etter

Airborne Training Center

103 Steam Whistle Dr, Warminster

Take flight at Airborne Training Center, a state of the art tumbling facility that focuses on tumbling instruction for all ages and abilities.

Bensalem School of Gymnastics

4432 E Bristol Rd, Trevose

Come for the gymnastics, stay for the movie nights.

“My daughter has been going to this gym for over 3 years now. She competes on the team and loves every minute of it. The coaches are great and have helped her come a long way from when she first started out. We were not going to compete at first, she just wanted to do the recreational classes, but the owner and coach approached me when they saw her in her advanced class and said she should be competing. She loves and looks forward to going to every practice. Love the extras that the gym has too (movie nights, open gyms, clinics, etc.)” – Local mom Brittany Tilley

Boing Gymnastics Center

No one knows family fun quite as well as a family run gymnastics center, and that’s just what you get at Boing. Nestled right in the heart of Perkasie, Boing teaches fun gymnastics classes for kids aged 12 months to teen, as well as birthday parties and their popular Friday Fun Nights.

Somerton School of Gymnastics

155 Philmont Ave, Feasterville-Trevose 

Come where flipping is fun! The instructors at Somerton know that while not all children want or should be in competitive gymnastics, it’s a sport everyone can benefit from and at least have fun with and have been using the “total” child coaching method for 27 years.
