Our Philosphy

Empower Your Child with Gymnastics!

Our philosophy is that gymnastics is the ultimate sport for teaching children that exercising and staying fit can be lots of fun! The basics of gymnastics will benefit our students throughout elementary and high school...even beyond that; indeed, for their lifetime! Balance, strength, coordination, and flexibility are the physical benefits. And don’t forget the mental aspects; overcoming fears, goal setting, sense of accomplishment, and social skills!

We've Been twisting and flipping in the capital region for nearly 20 years!

Doing Good things for Kids
Since 2005!

Twist'N Flip is owned by Ron & Jodi Barnes of Middleburgh, NY. In 2005, Ron began the gymnastics program on Saturday mornings to create side income as a stay at home Dad of 3 kids. Initially, the program was held in a small room of a local fitness gym, but the popularity of the class quickly necessitated a larger space. By September 2006, classes were being offered 6 days a week. Fast forward nearly two decades later, and we are proud to have opened the doors to 4 gymnastics locations, all based on the Twist'N Flip philosophy. Our most recent gym in Cobleskill opened in 2020, with more to come!
