About SBGC
Santa Barbara Gymnastics Club, SB GYM CLUB, opened in 1975, where children learned in a backyard. Seasons have changed, now Sam Sarmiento and Mandie Engel are carrying a legacy forward with their own twist. Our mission is to create physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually healthy citizens. We foster an atmosphere of respect, work ethic, and challenge beliefs in what is possible.
SBGC Staff
Who We Hire? We look for staff who have a background in the sport they teach, a person we believe would positively influence children, and uphold our values of respect and perseverance.
All of our team coaches are USA Gymnastics professional members, which requires safety certification, a background check, and continuing education.
Our staff also receives ongoing training in the gym for safety, teaching techniques of physical movements, social, and emotional development.
We want to provide your child with the safest possible training so they can enjoy their bodies for the entirety of their lives while balancing having fun.
