Since 1972, Nepean-Corona has provided the Ottawa area with one of the finest gymnastics facilities and coaching staff in the Canada. The Nepean Corona School of Gymnastics was founded in 1972, by Agnes Laing and Jeffrey Laing. The school operates out of its permanent 14,000 square foot location on Colonnade Road. The school has over 2000 athletes, men and women, and a staff of forty. Over the years the club has hosted a wide range of competitive events,ranging from inter-club recreational to provincial and elite levels. The club has twice been involved in the hosting of the Canadian National Gymnastics Championships, and has produced many regional, provincial and national champions, in either the all-around or individual apparatus. Several Corona athletes have been offered full or partial athletic scholarships at the NCAA level. Our successes however, are not limited to the competition floor. The values instilled in all our athletes, competitive and recreational alike, have led many former members to be leaders in our community. The club’s philosophy is that expanding both a child's mind and body creates the basis for success, both in sport and in life. The club has remained involved in the lives of our graduates and today we are proud supporters of the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario, Breast Cancer research and the Juvenile Diabetes Foundation. The club is committed to remain a strong pillar in the Ottawa community and to uphold our club philosophy – The Pursuit of Excellence.
