COMPETITIve Program

DGA provides comprehensive and progressive Competitive Artistic Gymnastics Programs, providing each athlete with the opportunity to develop to their greatest potential. The Competitive programs are based on the Xcel and Junior Olympic Programs and are delivered by the DGA coaching staff. Each gymnast works at her own skill level and according to their individual number of training hours per week. In the JO and Xcel programs, gymnasts are offered opportunities to compete and represent DGA at various events, suitable for their respective levels. 

Program Philosophy 

• We believe in the safety and personal well being of our athletes, above all else. 
• We believe that each athlete is ultimately responsible for the success of her own involvement and progress in gymnastics. 
• We believe in assisting children to reach their maximum potential. 
• We believe that parents and coaches are active supporters of athletes and their efforts.
• We believe that gymnastics should be a positive experience in children's lives and that through it, they may get to know more about themselves, about life in general and about the challenges that come with it. 
• We believe in being honest with each gymnast and her parents about the athlete's progress and potential. 
• We encourage and promote open communication between the coaching staff, members and their parents. We believe that an honest, respectful and open exchange of information and ideas from all involved is fundamental to a healthy atmosphere.
