Future Plans for
Flying Dutchman Gymnastics
Flying Dutchman Gymnastics is Marin's only entirely recreational gymnastics program through a partnership with the Town of Fairfax and the recreation department.
Currently, FDG teaches gymnastics to over 150 local children at the Pavilion in Fairfax. We offer classes every week, on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday afternoons.
Our professional USAG certified coaches set up a gymnastics floor, bars, rings, full size tumbling trampoline, and other gymnastics equipment and teach classes, camps, birthday parties, games, festival events and more.
We are grateful to the town for helping us launch this successful program! We recognize the Pavilion is a community space and home to several other programs for infants, toddlers, school aged children and even seniors.
After doing our mobile program for two and a half years, we realize that we need a "forever home" to provide more services and more advanced equipment to the children of Fairfax and West Marin.
These students are dedicated, advanced and deserve a full set of equipment in a full size gym on a full time basis. We are researching every possibility to provide the children of Fairfax with a permanent gymnastics home.
But we need your help!
Gymnastics programs need a large space with high ceilings.
At first sight, there are none such facilities in Fairfax.
However, we believe that there are always creative ways of making things work. This is why we are asking for your input into creating a way for the 500 children on the FDG mailing list to do gymnastics in or close to Fairfax and not have to travel elsewhere.
Buildings, barns, fields where tents could go, if you have any solutions, suggestions or ideas please contact us at:

Thank you for an amazing 3 years. We can’t wait to see what the future brings.
Best,
FDG Staff
