ABOUT US
TNT Kid's Fitness & Gymnastics
In June 2006, a small group of individuals designed a 20,000 sq. ft. dream center. An inclusive gymnastics space with innovative programming for physical activity to serve children with special needs alongside competitive athletes. TNT was organized to include and serve a population that did not have the same opportunities the typical child may have for economic, civic, and social participation.
From our beginnings TNT has been driven by vision, ambition, and a dedication to inclusion. We have created an environment where children of all abilities can thrive, adapting and modifying our programs to meet individual needs. As one of only two organizations in the U.S. offering inclusive programs for multiple abilities, we provide opportunities that meet the physical, social, emotional, and cognitive needs of all individuals we serve.
We are proud of our innovative collaborations, including our long-standing partnership with over 200 school paraprofessionals and special education teachers, ensuring our methods translate effectively into schools. TNT is committed to preparing children for success in all areas of life.
