The Spirals Gymnastics Foundation is an IRS 501c3 non-profit organization. We strive to provide an enjoyable experience with lifelong health and social benefits to boys and girls of all ages. We provide a fun and safe environment where we teach a progression of gymnastics skills at all levels from beginning recreation to elite competition.

Individuals learn to set and meet personal goals including improved performance through increased strength, coordination, balance, and flexibility. Students and athletes develop improved confidence, self-esteem, responsibility, and social interaction skills to benefit them in all aspects of life outside the gym.

Continuing a 20-year tradition at the beautiful UCSB campus by the beach, our nonprofit foundation offers everything from tons of fun recreation gymnastics and tumbling classes to serious (still fun) team competition.

Children's classes range from Mommy & Me, to Preschool, through Advanced. We have Tumbling for Cheerleaders, Gym/P.E. for Private/Home Schools, an Adult class, private lessons, and Birthday Parties!

Our Hot Shots (girls) and Future Stars (boys) Team Development classes prepare athletes for our very successful Competition Teams.

In addition to traveling to competitions near and far, we continue to host a number of regional and national competitions in the terrific facilities available to us at UCSB.

As a California Non-Profit Organization, our goals include promoting gymnastics locally and nationally. The 2008-2009 Board of Directors includes Roy Wienecke, President; Mary Marshall, Vice President; D.J. Colegrove, Secretary; Carla Manchester, Treasurer; Gabriela Grosz, Compulsory Girls Program Manager/Co-Program Manager for Recreational Programs; Israel Alatriste, Boys and Optional Girls Program Manager/Co-Program Manager for Recreational Programs; Doreen Wienecke, Board Administrative Assistant.

Please note that UCSB once ran the Spirals Gymnastics School and Competition Teams, but no longer does. We greatly appreciate UCSB's continued support of gymnastics in the community, especially Judith Dale, Jon Spaventa, and Celia Elliott for all they've done through the Recreation Department for many years.
