THE ORIGINAL ADULT GYMNASTICS TRAINING CAMP is happening again in summer of 2023: July 28-30
*ATLANTIC GYMNASTICS - PORTSMOUTH, NH*
camp is full. however, we are taking names for a waitlist for july 28-30 as well as a potential 2nd week in august!
this will be our 12th camp!
see the review from our last camp.
Our 11th camp was our biggest yet, and featured a partner acro class as well as an International Clinician, Beach Trip and Watch Party! Read now.
The Original Adult Gymnastics camp features structured training on Vault, Bars, Beam and Floor plus TumblTrak, Trampoline, Strap Bar and Dance! We have resi pits, a loose foam pit, highway beams, and a TumblTrak vault. You may avoid certain events and double up on others if you prefer. In addition to group training we always have roaming coaches that you can approach to ask for individualized help. There are contests and games along the way too! We will be offering partner acro class with Kaelyn Rogers, back by popular demand from last year.
The training you will receive is top notch, and we have groups for all levels so you are sure to feel right at home. Even if it's your very first day of gymnastics you are welcomed. We have groups for competitive gymnasts and for those with a high skill level too. We also include a Gymnastics Watch Party - always a hit! Normally we are able to watch Senior Women compete in the U.S. Classic together while we enjoy a buffet meal.
CHECK OUT THIS VIDEO FROM our last CAMP!
we are THE very FIRST ADULT-ONLY GYMNASTICS CAMP!
Come to a 3-day camp where competitive and recreational adult gymnasts of all levels can learn at their own pace alongside our internationally recognized staff! We focus on the women's artistic events, but guys are welcome to come play too.
In addition to 13 hours of instruction plus an educational clinic, there will be group meals in Downtown Portsmouth, a Gymnastics Watch Party, and a trip to the beach for those who would like to go! There are 2 major airports within an hour of the gym (Manchester NH and Boston MA). There is a smaller airport within a mile of the gym that serves limited areas (Pease International). There is typically beach traffic coming from Massachusetts and New York north to Portsmouth in the summer, so please plan accordingly.
Highlights from our esteemed staff over the years include:
- Tony Retrosi, International Clinician and my gymnastics coach!
- Wendy Bruce Martin, Olympian and mental training expert.
- Kaelyn Rogers, Partner Acro Instructor
- James Parent of TumblTrak who is an amazing gymnastics coach and so much fun!
- Tyler Green of Inside Gymnastics and founder of KSU Club Gymnastics (an NAIGC club).
- Joe Mello, Team Coach, Adult Gymnastics Coach and Adult Gymnast
- Liz Verhey, Recreational and Team Coach at MGC in Waltham MA
- Kristin Martin, Team Coach at GBC and Pilates Instructor
- Yuriy Volodin, Recreational and Team Coach at Northern Lights Gymnastics
- Nathan Beriau, Team Coach and Trampoline Expert
- Ariel Thibault, Team Gymnastics Coach and Adult Gymnastics Coach, Broderick Gymnastics Academy Hyde Park
we always have multiple beginner, intermediate and advanced groups for event training.
This ensures that all athletes get the attention they need! We also have entire group warmups, contests, games and social activities to ensure that we all get to know each other. Making new friends is one of the best parts of camp! We often have injuried athletes who still come along to do what they can and soak in the atmosphere. Watching rather than particpating is always allowed! We also have an Athletic Trainer on hand to keep everyone safe and provide treatments.

TESTIMONIAL FROM A FIRST-TIME CAMPER!
Hi Gina,
Thank you for creating the amazing, supportive, diverse and professional Adult Gymnastics camp. You gave an excellent overview about what to expect in your emails before the camp, but I never could have imagined the wonderful energy that surrounded each of us as we did our best to move forward with our conditioning and skills.
You have created something much more than an adult gymnastics camp.
Thank you!
Mary
2 MAJOR AIRPORTS AND A BUS LINE SERVE CAMP.
There are 2 major airports within an hour (Manchester-Boston Regional Airport and Logan International Airport). There is also a smaller airport less than a mile away called Pease. Starting Friday afternoon and ending Sunday early evening if you are in the area and need a ride you should not need a vehicle, unless you want to go sight-seeing on your own. There are always folks willing to offer rides. Uber is fairly reliable during daytime and evening hours.
This bus line is a good deal: $52 round trip from Logan Airport (Boston) to Portsmouth and back. It's an 1hr and 25min trip and they have a new one departing every hour. Here is the link to the bus line!

want a roommate? or find a place to stay in the area with a fellow camper?
We will have a spreadsheet where you can request a roommate or a place to stay with a local camper. This will be launched after camp is full.
covid questions
We have thought extensively about the safety of campers and staff and made the following decisions given the current state of the pandemic. While there is no decision that works perfectly for everyone, this decision is one that the organizer as well as the facility feels is best.
- We are not requiring that camp guests or staff are vaccinated.
- We are not requiring Covid testing for entry.
- We are not requiring masking. You may mask if you prefer. Keep in mind there is no AC in the gym, and it gets hot.
- If you are feeling unwell please do not attend camp sessions. Unfortunately there will be no refunds due to illness of any kind due to the planning required on our part to conduct a camp of this magnitude.
- If in the unexpected event that camp must be canceled due to Covid or for any other reason, you will be refunded in full. We have successfully conducted 11 out of 11 camps so far without a hitch. Cancelation is highly unlikely.

Taking a quick break from event rotations to strike a pose!The focus of this camp will be on drills and skills that adult gymnastics wish to learn or improve on the various gymnastics apparatus. You do not have to be in "good shape" to participate! You will always be permitted to work at your own pace. Watching and learning is a great use of your time. You also are sure to make some lifelong adult gymnastics friends.
