Gymnastics Club Name??

Hi, me and my co-worker were wanting to open a gym, we live in Hays, Kansas. I dont think that any one really knows where that is, but if you could give us some ideas for gym names that would be great!! Thanks!

All the gyms we've belonged to had names related to the location. There's a gym in Nor-Cal named gymfinity which sounds kinda cool. Let's see, we've been to meets at Technique, Flips, The Gym, Ariels, Airborne, Gymcats. There's one in So Cal called Kips. Oh actually the first gym we ever went to used to be called Station One Athletics, but now it's called Pacific something or other. I think you could call it anything that had meaning to you.Just tack gymnastics onto it.

I like simple names like "Slife's Gymnastics Academy" or "North County Gymnastics" or "Tri-City Twisters".

I also like the concept of having a separate name for the preschool. For example, "North County Gymnastics & the Gyminny Kids" or "Racine Gymnastics Academy & the Peppermint Preschool".

How about Fantastic Gymnastics? Of course, if I ever win the lottery and can quit my regular job and open a gym this is the name I am using :-)

Hays Hi-Flippers
Hays Hi-Flyers

Or you could use your last names, like Anderson Smith Gymnastics.

When thinking about gym names I was advised to steer clear of putting your name in the title. Remember, one day you want to retire from the business and will probably want to sell it. Having your name in the title makes it more difficult for the gym to live on once you've moved on.

I too used a regional attribute for my gym.

Check out the USAG clubs roster or some of the regional or state club sites. You can see a lot of club names that are already out there.
