our program

The health, safety, and happiness of our gymnasts is paramount.  With the development of fitness, and learning skills through proper progressions, we strive for each athlete to reach their full potential.

Arlington Aerials Girls Gymnastics (Aerials) consists of two parallel programs: The USAG Junior Development Program and USAG Xcel Program. 

The Aerials program is offered and administered by Arlington County’s Department of Parks and Recreation (DPR).  All coaches and staff are DPR employees and practices are held at Arlington County’s Barcroft Sports and Fitness Center.

For questions concerning gymnastics programs, please contact 703-228-0707 or email gymnastics@arlingtonva.us.  

To view additional Arlington County Parks and Recreation programs please visit the DPR website.

Boys interested in gymnastics should check out our brother team, the Arlington Tigers.
