A decade of excellence in sport and art!

The Okanagan Rhythmic Gymnastics Club was founded by
Canadian Olympian Camille Martens in fall of 1997.

 

Currently girls ages 5 and up are taking part in a variety of programs, training from 1 to 20+ hours/week. All athletes are trained in diverse and challenging, yet thoroughly enjoyable programs. Training regimens include class work in dance, conditioning, flexibility, coordination, drama, video analysis, music interpretation, expression, sport psychology, personal organization, and nutrition.

Since it’s inception Okanagan Rhythmics has had the opportunity of working with an elite international coaching staff. 1996 Olympian Birgit Schielin of Austria provided exciting demonstrative example, Svetlana Rasseko from the Republic of Belarus shared extensive expertise in technique and program structure, Vlodya Makarov from the Ukraine provided the ballet and character base that is essential to good results, Linda Wei from China brought more international flare and specialized in classical ballet, Rachel Martens added dramatic flare and correct posture and alignment and Head Coach/Club Owner Camille Martens has inspired, encouraged, coached, choreographed and directed.

We have also been blessed to have had injury prevention and recovery work done by a variety of sports physiotherapists, doctors, masseurs, personal trainers and other health experts. 


Together with this incredible support team, through hard work, perseverance, and dedication our athletes have achieved tremendous results in competition, in community development/contributions, in shows and in personal growth.
