The M.A.T.S.S. Story and Philosophy

In the mid-1980's, four mothers with young children became disenchanted with the gymnastics programs available for youngsters in Nassau County. They could not find suitable programs for their toddlers, pre-nursery and pre-kindergarten children. So, they decided they should start their own gym. Pooling money together, the four mothers bought two blue mats and began giving classes in a local American Legion Hall. In one month they outgrew their location and formally started M.A.T.S.S. Kids’ Gym in 1985. Founders
M.A.T.S.S. stands for:

Movement
Aerobics  
Tumbling,
Sports     
Skills       

Our two remaining founders, Nancy Clinton and Nancy Wohlsen, own and operate our two locations in Bellmore and Syosset. Unlike many other gymnastics and tumbling programs, M.A.T.S.S. provides a stress free environment for kids. Our staff is fully trained and certified; possessing degrees in everything from physical education to early childhood development to elementary education.
For more than 25 years, M.A.T.S.S. Kids' Gym has been "the place" for gymnastics and birthday parties; Long Island's original non-competitive gym!  Come join us for our amazing 25th year.
