was established in 1999 with 99 students based on the purchase of Hawaii Gymnastics Academy (1994-1999; Ms Abra Slater, Director, moved to California), previously called Gymnastics Academy of Hawaii (~1988-1994; Mr Paul Kahovic, Director, moved to Illinois). In the Summer of 1999, Oahu Gymnastics Centers (~1991-1999; Mr Michael Reeder and Mrs Tina Reeder, Owners / Directors, became HA managers and moved to the Big Island in 2006) was purchased and merged into HA. In the Summer of 2002, Aloha Gymnastics World (~1997-2002; Mr Dave Vandervort, Director, managed the Aloha Gym for six months and then moved to Pennsylvania and subsequently Florida) was purchased and merged into HA making two complete gymnasiums (Iwilei Gym and Aloha Gym). In 2003 the total enrollment was 1000 students (over 1400 student visits per week). In 2004 the Aloha Gym was renamed Hawaii Academy's Kalihi Gym (eventually just 'Hawaii Academy') and became the home for most Oahu activities. In October of 2004 Hawaii Academy purchased the Kalihi Gym and moved everything from Iwilei into the Kalihi facility. Artistic gymnastics was expanded to be co-ed and for all ages and abilities, featuring intramural and ILH competitions, eventually leading to a moratorium on USAG competitions for men (2004-2005) and women (2005-2006) with nearly all of the USAG artistic gymnastics athletes relocating to other clubs on Oahu. In 2005 the All Star Cheer Extreme head coach moved to the mainland and the entire program was suspended until a new program head is found. To better achieve the original mission of the Academy, in 2006 the primary emphasis was on continued development of a proficiency based physical education curriculum for all students and athletic teams that are coeducational and for all ages and abilities with gender equity. In 2007 the Athletics Department is initiating a business plan to separate from Hawaii Academy to allow sport groups to subcontract facilities and personnel independently. This action is planned to start with the independent operation of the elite and international trampoline teams and spread to all team programs. Also in 2007, HA started the first collegiate coed trampoline program in America (men's artistic gymnastics included trampoline as an event in the NCAA until 1964) with university competitions in Japan, Great Britain, Germany, and the mainland. As planned, in 2007 the Athletics Department was reduced from 5% to 3% of the enrollment with reduced emphasis on traveling. The elite program was retired with Dr Max following the 2007 World Championships and all traveling athletes will henceforth train within their age groups.
