Business Spotlight
Gym Skills | Get Active. Be Healthy.
Since 2005, Gym Skills has been turning energy into excellence right here in the greater Columbus area, with its flagship facility at 710 Cross Pointe Road in Gahanna. What began as a single mobile gymnastics gym — bringing mats and instruction directly to childcare centers and after-school programs — has grown into a thriving center that helps hundreds of kids each year build fitness, confidence, and lifelong healthy habits.
Founder Kenny Crump launched Gym Skills when he was just 19, responding to a simple request to teach a gymnastics class at a daycare — and discovering a passion that would shape his future. With a heart for community, accessibility, and youth development, Kenny built the program from the ground up, expanding from mobile classes to a permanent gym in Gahanna in 2008, and later into a 15,000 sq ft headquarters in 2017.
His mission has always been about more than tumbling — it’s about inspiring kids to “Get Active. Be Healthy.” and empowering them to grow strong in body and mind.
Gym Skills stands out for its inclusive, non-competitive environment where kids of all ages can learn gymnastics, tumbling, ninja-style obstacle skills, and more. The programs are crafted to foster:
Physical confidence and coordination
Healthy habits from an early age
Positive social interaction and teamwork
From toddler classes to youth camps, birthday parties, open gyms, and even adult gymnastics sessions, there’s something for every family member. Their approach blends fun, skill development, and community support — and their coaches are known for being encouraging, enthusiastic, and skilled at helping every child shine.
Gym Skills also supports community connection through creative offerings like event space rentals and special themed programs, adding even more ways for families to engage and celebrate together.
Today, Gym Skills continues to grow its impact both locally and beyond. The Gahanna gym serves hundreds of youth with diverse programming, while the brand expands through additional locations and franchise opportunities across Ohio and other states. Classes, camps, open gyms, and community outreach all keep kids moving, learning, and striving for their personal best.
