The 2016-2017 seasons of gymnastics, tumbling, and cheer have already been exciting. We know there’s a lot to balance between school, the gym, and finding time to be kids, so we’re proud to be a part of their lives.

An informational meeting will be held at 7:15 pm on Thursday, April 16, 2015 in the lobby of Gem City Gymnastics & Tumbling. We will explain competitive all star cheer, the USASF, and the tryout process. We will also introduce the coaches, learn about practices, and discuss time commitment and costs. This is all for your information. Attending this meeting in no way requires you to tryout.
Hope to see you at tryouts!
Check out our success from this season!
Teamwork brings cheer team to nationals
It’d be an understatement to say we’re proud of our All Star Cheer Squad. In just three seasons, the squad has gone from an idea Hope Cernea had to a contender on a national stage. Check out the KHQA feature on the success of our All Star girls on their road to nationals.
The Gem City staff is rested, energized, and ready for the new session. The spring session begins today, Monday, December 29.
Registration is open too, so call to reserve your spot today! (217)224-8491
We saw a lot of success in November so far! Both the gymnastics team and cheer squad had competitions and performed well.
The gymnastics team competed at the Judges Cup on November 8-9 in Bourbannais, Illinois. It was their second meet of the season. The Level 3 and Level 4 teams placed first!
Cheer tryouts will be Saturday, May 10, from 8:30 to 11:30.
There will also be one mandatory pre-tryout practice on Saturday, May 3, from 8:30 to 11:30. This practice is great in that it allows the girls to get comfortable with each other. It also introduces them to the type of tumbling, stunting, jumping, and dance the squad will be working toward.
An informational meeting will be held at 7 pm on Wednesday, April 23, 2014 in the lobby of Gem City Gymnastics & Tumbling.
St. Charles, MO. – The Gem City Rubies All Star cheer squad made great strides at the St. Louis Classic meet when they finished in the small senior level 2 category.They were only .3 of a point short of first place. There were six teams in their division.
Their performance was especially impressive considering last minute routine changes that had to be made the day before the competition due to a change in the number of squad members. This meant the girls had to alter formations, change stunting groups, and adjust counts for timing. Cheerleading is about moving parts so if one cog changes the whole machinery must be adjusted.
We want to congratulate the following athletes on making the 2013/14 Gem City All Star Cheer Squad! Hope and I truly enjoyed the tryout process. We look forward to working with you during the upcoming year.
