ARGOS was formed in 1991 by the amalgamation of four local
gymnastics clubs - Tauranga, Otumoetai, Te Puna and Mt
Maunganui. The mission of the new ARGOS Gymnastic Club was to
develop fundamentals, fun, fitness and friendship and to assist in
the development of the whole person in order to assist them in the
basic skills of life.
ARGOS stands for Artistic, Rhythmic, General Organisation of
Sports. It is also the name of two Greek heroes, one a
warrior showing strength and power (the gymnast) the other had 100
eyes (the coach!)
In November 1994 the club relocated to the building we are still
in today on Koromiko Rd. We are the only fully set-up
gymnastics centre in Tauranga and we are a member club of GymSports
NZ, our national sports organisation.
Today we provide classes in a variety of gymsports including
artistic gymnastics, rhythmic gymnastics, tumbling, TeamGym and
trampoline.
Our mission is to provide quality and gymnastics for all.
Quality and Gymnastics are never an accident - it is always the
result of high intention and sincere effort. It represents
the wise choice of many alternatives.
We have over 20 coaches at our club teaching and encouraging our
members to achieve their best and reach their potential in whatever
gymsport and at whatever level, ability or age they are.
