About Shine Gymnastics

Hello!  Just like you, I am raising children.  We probably have a similar prayer for our children as well.  As a parent, I know the importance of instilling positive self value, God honoring character and a work ethic to help them succeed.  All three of my children were able to do a back handspring by the third grade!  Go mama!!  Gymnastics offered me all of the values I mentioned earlier.  As a teen, I competed nationally, I was awarded scholarships, I began to choreograph competitive high school cheer teams, coaching competitive gymnastics and eventually earned head coach of the preschool program as I worked my way through college.  Through education, I found a second love as a pediatrics RN.   What could be better than combining my two passions and offering the gift of gymnastics to children?  May the experience of gymnastics offer strength to your child for their lives journey.  Enjoy the process, it is exciting to watch children grow healthy. 

 Gymnastics combines many areas that are important to child development: strength, flexibility, grace and self discipline.  Not only does gymnastics offer healthy physical development; but it also establishes  personal and social skills that will stay with them for life.

Working hard and accomplishing goals builds confidence and self-worth. Gymnastics is a challenging sport that pushes children to work towards their fullest potential! 

Pre-school is a great age to start gymnastics! The "initiative" stage of growth.  The key to this stage is highly energetic learning.  Gymnastics training connects the mind and body teaching concentration and focus.  Gymnastics offers preschoolers a place to  explore  effective effort and body awareness. Because running, skipping, jumping and climbing is a part of who they are why not incorporate a sport that  teaches their growing bodies how to move with skill!
