We LOVE Gymnastics! Celebrating National Gymnastics Day at Sterling Gym
If there’s one thing we know how to do at Sterling Gym, it’s Have More Fun — and National Gymnastics Day gave us the perfect excuse to celebrate a sport we absolutely LOVE!
On Saturday, September 19, we celebrated National Gymnastics Day 2026, but we couldn’t keep the fun to just one day. We turned it into a week-long celebration throughout the gym!
Our theme?
Stick With It to Stick It!
Because every gymnast knows that the “stick” doesn’t always happen on the first try!
Sometimes it takes 10 tries. Sometimes 100. Sometimes you finally nail that skill you’ve been working on forever…and there’s no better feeling!
All week long, we celebrated the practice, perseverance, determination, and FUN that go into learning new skills. Athletes received fun stickers at the end of classes, we snapped lots of photos, pulled out the coloring pages, and found plenty of reasons to celebrate our Sterling athletes.
And we couldn’t leave out our Dance and Ninja programs! Our dancers and ninjas joined in the fun because working hard, trying something new, building confidence, and sticking with it are things we celebrate in every corner of Sterling Gym.
What Do You Love About Gymnastics?
We asked our athletes this question during our celebration, and it reminded us just how many reasons there are to love this sport.
The flips. The friendships. Learning new skills. Getting stronger. Being part of a team. Finally landing something you’ve been practicing over and over again.
And, of course, having FUN!
From our littlest Sweet Peas just beginning to explore movement to our recreational gymnasts, competitive team athletes, coaches, and Sterling alumni, there are so many people who have helped make gymnastics such an important part of our community.
Keep Moving. Keep Growing. Keep Having Fun.
National Gymnastics Day may only come around once a year, but what it celebrates happens inside our gym every single day.
Athletes try.
They fall.
They laugh.
They cheer for each other.
They get back up.
They try again.
And then one day…THEY STICK IT!
We had so much fun celebrating #NGD2026 with our Sterling Gym family. Thank you to our athletes, coaches, families, and alumni who continue to make this sport—and our gym—such a fun place to grow up.
Here’s to another year of big skills, little victories, great friendships, lots of laughs, and plenty of stuck landings.
Stick With It to Stick It!
And, as always…
Have More Fun.
