Train in Canada-Train From Abroad-Represent You Country-Represent Glimmer
For many years, Glimmer has welcomed rhythmic gymnasts and coaches from around the world. Glimmer International Academy brings these international connections together and gives athletes different ways to become part of Glimmer, wherever their gymnastics journey may be taking them.
There is no single pathway that every gymnast needs to follow. An athlete may come to Canada to train with us, continue living and training abroad while being part of our international program, represent her own country and represent Glimmer at selected competitions.
Each athlete is different, and we want the Academy to reflect that.
Glimmer headed to Saskatchewan for Elite Canada, where the team faced truly freezing conditions — temperatures dropped to -50°C, the gym was incredibly cold, and snowstorms even caused flights home to be cancelled! ❄️
Despite the challenging conditions, the Glimmer Senior Group came out 1st after qualification and finished the finals with an incredible three silver medals 🥈🥈🥈.
Our Senior FIG individual athlete, Carmel, also had an amazing competition, finishing 3rd overall and bringing home three bronze medals from the apparatus finals! 🥉🥉🥉
Carmel and Glimmer had the incredible opportunity to perform on Canada’s Got Talent, bringing the beauty and excitement of rhythmic gymnastics to a national audience. Their performance captivated both the judges and the crowd, earning an enthusiastic YES from all four judges. It was an unforgettable experience and a proud milestone for the entire Glimmer family.
Our Little family, our amazing Glimmer is CLUB OF THE YEAR! Congratulations board, coaches, gymnasts, parents, volunteers and supporters! We are excited to start the new season with even bigger goals! CONGRATULATIONS!
