Gymnastique
Gymnastique is Long Island's premier Olympic sized gymnastics facility. The gym, which is located in Syosset, New York, has programs for beginners through advanced gymnastics. Directors Lori Perretta and Dawn Wilensky are responsible for the success of the team. A low athelete-coach ratio is what makes the team very successful. Alexa has been training at Gymnastique since she was four. Alexa is coached by Oleg Redikartsev.
