Dominique Dawes Academy Alpharetta Grand Opening

Olympic Gold Medalist and three-time Olympian Dominique Dawes invites the public to celebrate the grand opening of Dominique Dawes Academy Alpharetta, marking the Academy’s first location in Georgia and a significant expansion into the Metro Atlanta market.

The Alpharetta opening holds special meaning for Dawes, whose historic Olympic career is forever linked to Atlanta and the 1996 Summer Games.

“Coming to Atlanta feels incredibly nostalgic for me,” said Dominique Dawes, Founder of Dominique Dawes Academy. “The 1996 Olympics were a defining moment in my life, and this city will always be part of my story. Bringing the Academy here feels full circle; an opportunity to give back to a community that represents excellence, resilience and possibility.”

The Alpharetta location introduces the Academy’s nationally recognized approach to youth fitness, emphasizing confidence-building, positive coaching, and whole-child development through gymnastics and ninja-style training. Designed for children of all skill levels, the Academy focuses on creating a supportive environment where kids can grow physically, emotionally and socially.

“Our expansion into Alpharetta represents an important milestone for the brand,” said Adam Zeitsiff, CEO of Dominique Dawes Academy. “Atlanta is a dynamic, family-focused market that aligns perfectly with our mission. This opening allows us to serve more families while continuing to elevate the standard for youth sports and wellness.”

The new gym features the Academy’s reimagined gymnastics and ninja brand experience and reflects Dominique Dawes Academy’s commitment to modern design, safety and inclusivity.
