Taiso Gymnastics Club has been bringing the benefits of gymnastics to Saskatoon for over 35 years! Taiso is a padded playground in a giant warehouse. Taiso provides a FUN environment where kids can get FIT. We are one of only 6 men's National Training Centers in Canada, a unique gymnastics facility with many trampolines, ropes, rings and specialized apparatus for climbing, swinging, and hanging. Taiso is a safe facility, with state-of-the-art foam pits where kids can learn to flip and twist with minimal risk of injury.

Rozon and Long Olympians
The gym where the Taiso Gym Club trains with
coach Keith Russell is the size of a shoe box. To
practise vaulting, Warren Long and James Rozon
have to make their approach run down a hallway.
Long becomes the first Canadian gymnast ever to
reach an appartus final in the Olympics, placing seventh
in vault in the 1984 Games.
Rozon competes in the 1988 Olympics. His best
apparatus in the Games is vault.
