Who are Goldstar Gymnastics?
Goldstar Active was founded in October 2010 by co-owners Laura Kitney and Caroline Woodcock. With combined experience of teaching gymnastics to local client of almost 40 years, Laura and Caroline spent the early years of the club coaching recreational classes from satellite venues including sports halls and village halls. We first began teaching classes from South Hunsley Sports Centre, Melton, East Yorkshire. As our membership grew, we branched out into other local venues and soon ran classes at South Cave Sports Centre, Cottingham Pavilion and Warner’s Health Club across the region. Within the first three years, our membership grew to approximately 200 gymnasts allowing us to accrue significant funds and we soon recognised that our own premises were needed to support our continued growth.
We identified the potential in a warehouse shell located in Willerby in April 2017 and this brings us to our recent past, which has seen us build our new gym mat by mat, bar by bar to create a state-of-the-art facility. Since we first opened the doors to our new home in July 2017, we have seen our membership grow substantially to over 1000 members and growth continues with each passing week!
