Evidence, not Anecdotes.
Who we are & what we do
The Gymnastics Research Institute (GRI) is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization that studies the effects of gymnastics on the human body. Through high-quality, practical research, GRI seeks to advance the safety, longevity, and performance of gymnasts.
Reliable. PRACTICAL. EVIDENCE-BASED.
Our research
GRI aims to be an impartial resource for coaches, athletes, and other gymnastics professionals. We believe that fostering a culture of collaboration in the gymnastics community is key. Collaboration and evidence-based research have the power to improve our understanding of and decision making within the sport.
No matter your gymnastics experience or where you come from, we hope you find something useful and worthwhile in our research.
