      PALAESTRA Gymnastics ACADEMY

      Palaestra Gymnastics Academy was founded by Kathy Needham in 1980. We take our name from the Greek word Palaestrum, some of the first training grounds for the Olympic games — and we believe in the same generations-old holistic practices that these original Olympians trusted.
