Gymnastics Events & Camps in Silver Spring, MD
Beyond regular classes, our gymnastics gym in Silver Spring offers exciting events and camps to keep your child engaged throughout the year. Our special programs combine fun, skill-building, and social time for an unforgettable experience.
Open Gym Sessions
Sometimes kids need a place to move, laugh, and explore simply. Open Gym gives them that freedom. In a safe, supervised space, children bounce, climb, and try new skills without the structure of a formal class.
Birthday Parties
Celebrate milestones with a party that kids will never forget. Our birthday parties turn the gym into an energetic playground where children can jump, flip, and laugh with friends. Staff members handle the setup and supervision, allowing parents to relax and enjoy the day.
Kids' Night Out
Parents get an evening to themselves while kids enjoy games, gymnastics, and plenty of fun at our Kids’ Night Out events. It’s a win-win; children stay active and entertained while parents enjoy some well-deserved time off.
Summer Camp
Summer is a season for exploration, and our summer camps are designed to keep kids moving, learning, and connecting with new friends. Each camp blends gymnastics instruction with games and activities that make every day exciting.
Why Gymnastics Works for Kids
Ask any parent; the best part of gymnastics isn’t the flips or cartwheels. It’s watching your child’s face light up when they master something new, or seeing them grow more confident and independent each week. At our Silver Spring Academy, classes are designed to build both skills and character in a way that feels fun, natural, and age-appropriate.
Boosts Confidence
Every new cartwheel or balance beam skill gives kids a reason to smile, helping them believe in what they can achieve.
Builds Strength & Coordination
From climbing to tumbling, gymnastics naturally strengthens muscles and sharpens balance without kids even realizing they’re working hard.
Teaches Focus & Patience
Repeating a skill until it clicks shows kids that progress takes practice, not perfection, and that effort pays off.
Promotes Healthy Habits
Active play becomes a routine, giving kids a foundation for fitness and wellness that can last into adulthood.
Encourages Social Skills
Sharing the mat with classmates teaches cooperation, turn-taking, and how to cheer on others’ successes.
Prepares for Other Sports
The agility, flexibility, and body awareness developed in gymnastics carry over to soccer fields, basketball courts, and beyond.
Reduces Screen Time
Instead of hours on a tablet, kids get to laugh, move, and burn energy in ways that feel exciting and rewarding.

Frequently Asked Questions
At what age should a kid start gymnastics?
Many kids start as toddlers, so it’s never too early to introduce movement in a safe, structured way. Programs like infant gymnastics and toddler gymnastics provide young children with an opportunity to climb, balance, and explore while having fun.
Is gymnastics worth it for a 2-year-old?
Absolutely. At this age, gymnastics feels like play, but kids are learning essential skills, such as listening, coordination, and social interaction. Parents often notice their toddlers becoming more confident and independent after just a few classes.
How much does gymnastics cost for kids?
Costs depend on the program and the frequency of your child’s attendance. At Dominique Dawes Academy, families appreciate the flexible memberships and sibling discounts that make it easier to get everyone involved without a long-term commitment.
Is gymnastics bad for height growth?
Gymnastics won’t stunt your child’s growth. Kids in gymnastics grow just as they would in any other sport. In fact, the flexibility and strength they gain often support healthy development.
