About Summit

Summit Gymnastics established in 1981, and acquired by Greater Buffalo Gymnastics in 2026, is a community staple that provides a happy, healthy, learning-based environment where children are empowered to grow and achieve meaningful successes in sport and in life.

 

Through gymnastics instruction, we enrich the self-confidence & lives of the children and families we serve. Our programs continuously adapt and evolve. We're accessible to children of all ages, capabilities, and are committed to the professional growth & development of our staff.

Watch Policy

"ALL THE TIME, ANYTIME!"

We have large windows and glass doors to see into the gym at floor level, or for a bird's eye view, watch and listen to your child's class from the 2nd floor balcony. The “Jungle Gym,” a special themed area for our younger gymnasts, can be observed from the closed-circuit TV located in the lobby. We encourage you to stay for class and watch your child's progress "All The Time, Anytime!"
