Who We Are?
Since 2003, the Yellowknife Gymnastics Club (YKGC) has been operating out of a gymnastics facility within the Multiplex Arena - the only dedicated gymnastics facility within the NWT.
The facility was created when the community rallied together with many companies, organizations and
individuals stepping up to raise and/or donate funds. So, you could say that our foundation was built
on the commitment, support and generosity of our community.
The YKGC is a non-profit organization run by a volunteer Board of Directors and relies on parents, athletes and the community-at-large who support the YKGC through volunteering and fundraising.
Our Mission
It is the goal of the YKGC to provide recreational and competitive gymnastics in a safe, supportive and fun environment that promotes overall fitness, skill development and self-esteem.

Our club works hard to keep classes accessible, affordable, and high quality! Historically the club has offered unique programming, like birthday parties, drop ins to help keep classes affordable.
Over the past 3 years, our club has some significant reduction in class sizes, party times, drop-in availability, things are a little tighter for us. We are striving to stay open and stay on track with our journey to expand our programming!
You can help by donating to the club! Your donation will go towards;
• Providing future programming
• Investing in coaching education
• Sourcing new equipment
Do you have an idea on how to help us with in-kind or sponsorship donations instead? Give us a call; we'd love to hear from you and collaborate! Every dollar gets us one step closer to our goals!
