History  and Direction of Taiso Gymnastics Club
Taiso Gymnastics Club was founded in 1979 by Dr. Keith Russell and has been growing and evolving ever since. Taiso’s mandate was, and still is, to produce national and international level, competitive male gymnasts and we have been very successful in this endeavor. Taiso holds the distinction of having a gymnast on the Senior Canadian Men’s National Team for more than two decades. Taiso is designated one of two Men’s National Training Centres in all of Canada. We are proud that our head coach, Markos Baikas, is also the  Canadian Junior Men’s National coach.
Taiso also has vibrant recreational programs for boys and girls of all ages. Our recreational classes improve strength, flexibility and coordination all while having fun. Athletes in the recreation program progress through a badge system as they gain skills. We also have drop in classes for pre-schoolers, teens and adults.
More recently, we have started a girls program for girls interested in competing at the provincial level. The focus of our girls program is to provide challenging, progressive instruction in a supportive environment.
Empire Parkour also trains out of Taiso and offers classes in this increasingly popular sport.
