History

The Gymnastic Academy of Boston, Inc. is a family business dedicated to helping kids. It has been continuously owned and operated for over 35 years by the Ferraro family whose interest in gymnastics was triggered by seven daughters all involved in gymnastics.

Since it's beginings in 1972 with only a few mats GAB has grown steadily to include large, fully equipped gyms staffed by gymnastic professionals. GAB's reputation has remained strong over the years as evidence by the large number of second generation gymnasts that register every day. Over the years they have developed many State, Regional and National Champions; however, their primary focus still is the dedication to the young children interested in learning gymnastics and all sports skills in a fun, safe environment where each child is important regardless of his or her skill level.

Mission

"Our goal is to provide a gymnastic program that teaches children that learning is fun and a challenge. We offer fantastic programs, taught by our enthusiastic, caring instructors, for children ages 1 to 18. Our fun, safe nurturing environment develops happy, healthy and responsible children."

- Bob and Nancy Ferraro, Founders
