Lakeshore Has Moved!

We have joined forces with Midwest Training and Ice Center - www.midwesttrainingandice.com, out of Dyer/St. John, to form the largest gymnastics and All-Star Cheer programs in the north!

With the opening of a new 20,000 square foot facility in Crown Point, Indiana in June, we will assure the same quality gymnastics and cheer training that Lakeshore and Midwest are famous for!

The new facility is just five minutes from Southlake Mall in Merrillville off of Broadway and Summit roads! This convenient location is at the hub of Northwest Indiana and will prove to be the finest state-of-the-art training facility in the area. With ballet included in your gymnastics team athlete's tuition, we assure that dance becomes an important part of her training.

Also stay tuned for upcoming announcements for a third facility in Valparaiso, Indiana in the next year! This third location will cater to our athletes nearer to Valparaiso, South Bend, Michigan City and LaPorte.





Three oversized 42x60 spring floors, 4 Sets of Bars, 2 low bars, high bar, in-ground channel bar, 14 balance beams, 3 vaulting systems, 2 HUGE loose foam block pits, 1 tumble track, Olympic sized in-ground trampoline, 2 rod tumbling strips, 2 climbing ropes over loose foam pits, morning and afternoon preschool and Pre-K Classes and the best staff of 34 coaches in Northwest Indiana make this the largest and FINEST training facility in our area!
