About Us
For more than three decades, Brown’s Gym has been shaping athletes and building confidence through movement. What began as a dedicated gymnastics program has grown into something much bigger—rooted in a legacy of excellence, growth, and community. Today, that foundation continues as Brown’s Gym Orbit Sports Academy, where experience, innovation, and passion come together to serve the next generation of athletes.

For over 30 years, our program—originally known as Brown’s Gymnastics—has been a pillar in the world of athletics. With a legacy that includes producing Olympians, national team members, and nearly 100 scholarship athletes, this rich history of excellence continues to serve as the foundation of who we are today. In 2022, Brown’s began a new chapter as Brown’s Gym Orbit Sports Academy (BGO), expanding our vision to create fresh, innovative programs for the next generation of inspired athletes. Today, BGO Sports Academy offers a comprehensive range of high-quality instruction all under one roof.
Our programs include recreational and competitive gymnastics for boys and girls, a full martial arts program with classes in Karate, Taekwondo, and Ninja, and a robust dance program offering Ballet, Contemporary, Hip-Hop, and Jazz. We are also proud to offer a competitive All-Star cheer program with tumbling classes for all ages, as well as an after-school enrichment program designed to keep school-aged children active and engaged while exploring our diverse orbiting sports.
Our mission is to develop strong, confident, and well-rounded athletes in a safe, dynamic, and supportive environment. Our passionate coaches and staff are dedicated to helping every child—from beginners to high-level competitors—grow in strength, discipline, and self-confidence. BGO is more than just a place to take classes; we are a community committed to inspiring and positively impacting young lives through sport and movement.
