History

In 1994 Lawrence Gymnastics & Academy was established by David Sakumura and Kelly Dirks, and began “Building Better Kids” with gymnastics in ~3,000 sq/ft of space on the north end of what is now the Sears building at 25th & Iowa St.  In 2000, LGA moved to the custom built 10,000 sq/ft facility on Legends Drive.  In 2002, David purchased sole ownership of LGA and in 2008 began coaching full time.  In that same year, LGA began offering Dance & Cheer classes at the 5150 Clinton Parkway facility.
