Welcome to
Arctic Gymnastics Center

  A rctic Gymnastics Center has been in business since founder                
 Carolyn Crouch opened its doors in 1988 as the third  gymnastics        
club in the Anchorage area.  Carolyn offered recreational and
competitive gymnastics and later added childcare to her center.

 Carolyn ran Arctic for 8 years until health issues forced her to sell the business. In June 1996 Karin Carter and Sheila Vonesh purchased the business from Carolyn. Karin and Sheila had daughters on the competitive
team. Arctic Gymnastics continued to thrive and produce top athletes. In 1999, Arctic lost its lease and moved to its current location. The business downsized to fit the facility by dropping the childcare program. In 2003 Dan and Nichole Alch purchased the business and are looking forward-to making many improvements they've planned.

 To date, Arctic has produced many of the State's top athletes. In recent
years they have trained most of the top level athletes who went on to
compete at the Regional, Level 9 Western National, and Level 10 National
Competitions.  In 2004 the Level 4,5, and 6 compulsory teams won the State Championships.
