Can't go wrong with Ground Zero in Dartmouth but you need transportation to get out to it. If your transportation is limited, you'll want to go to Dalplex at Dalhousie University.

What can i do to prepare for gymnastics training? I am going to take gymnastics again (i've been in gymnastics before when i was really young) but i havent been taking lessons for a longggg time. So what are some things i need to do like maybe pushups, any tumbling stuff i need to work on? Or good stretches? (i'm quite flexible) Anything at all that i can do to make myself a better gymnast before the actual training lessons?

ummmm... haha you do know your posting on a rock climbing website? Ground Zero isn't an ideal place for practicing tumbling...
Perhaps you'll find the info your looking for here? : http://www.gymns.ca

For bouldering, definitely Rock Court @ Dalplex (494-1935). It is quite small - but you'll get strong fast. No vertical, lots of angles.

Nothing against GZ - but if you are looking for pure bouldering - Rock Court.
