Annual Holiday Show
Club Adagio’s Annual Holiday Show is held in December each year just before the holiday break.  Exact dates and times are published annually and circulated to members.  This fun filled evening of music, dance and gymnastics evokes the traditions of the season and the ensuing heartfelt sentiments that always prevail at this special time of year.  All gymnasts, from our very youngest beginners to our highest level of competitors, happily perform alongside one another.  It is often the first performance ever for our youngest athletes and it is always a memorable and exciting time for all involved..  This event is a joint effort of  both Club Adagio and The International Rhythmic Gymnastics Academy of Vancouver and it is spectacular in all ways and not be missed.  Reasonably priced tickets are sold at the door or in advance and it is always a wonderful and warm gathering of present and past club members, families and friends.

Zone 3 Championships
This is the first competition of the season for our Rhythmic Dreams and Rhythmic Stars competitive team members.  Exact dates are published annually however it  traditionally falls over a two day period somewhere between mid February to mid March each year.  Other clubs from Chilliwack, Port Moody, North Vancouver and Maple Ridge join us at this exciting event and our athletes are always eager participants and strong competitors.  Rankings, ribbons, and medals are part of this event and positive feedback from a panel of expert judges is offered to all the coaches on their athletes’ preparation at this early stage in their development.  We look at this event as the “kick start” to our athletes’ competitive season.

Millennium Cup International Invitational 2010
Millennium Cup was founded in 2000 by Adrienne Arnold who intended it to be an event that would offer our club’s athletes and athletes from the various clubs in BC an opportunity to compete in their “own backyard” so to speak, with other athletes of their own caliber from outside of British Columbia.  The first competition was an instant success and has been followed each year since, by subsequent equally successful events.  It is a wonderful and friendly competition for all levels of rhythmic gymnasts competing together throughout the three day event.  The highlight for everyone is always the top athletes from across Canada and from around the world who join us in Vancouver, B.C. each year during the month of May.  Over the years athletes from Russia, Portugal, Argentina, New Zealand, Australia, Romania, Taiwan, Korea and of course all our dear friends in the U.S.A. have turned our annual Millennium Cup into a spectacular and fun event for all involved.  Registration packages for Millennium Cup are available here for downloading.  New participants feel free to contact us directly for personal assistance at adriennearnold@shaw.ca

BC Provincial Championships
Selected athletes from across our Province compete together each year at the annual BC Championships which are hosted each year by BC Rhythmic Gymnastic Federation and an appointed host club in our province.  This event tends to move around between the Lower Mainland, Vancouver Island and the Interior of BC and it is the final competitive event of the season for qualified Individuals and Groups from our Club.  Dates of this event are published annually by the BC Rhythmic Gymnastic Federation and the club notifies its members directly of the date.

Annual Year End Show
Club Adagio and The International Rhythmic Gymnastic Academy of Vancouver celebrate the finale of their season’s successes with their annual “Parade of Stars” and Gala routines at our Year End Show held in June just before the Summer Break.  It is always a sentimental gathering of gymnasts, friends and families with all of our athletes performing one last time as our season draws to an end.  It is a time of sweet enjoyment and acknowledgment of our athletes’ achievements, of our volunteers’ support, of our sponsors’ generosity and of our coaches’ amazing creativity and work.  Tickets are sold in advance or are available at the door for this evening of recognition and entertainment by our most favourite performers in the world, our own athletes!
