Jenna has been coaching with us for 6 years. Prior to coaching she did recreation artistic gymnastics for two years before switching to Acrobatic Gymnastics. She competed in acrobatic gymnastics for 6 years and made it all the way to level 10. She brought home many medals including state, region, and national titles from all over the country before retiring from the sport. She then ended up working here at her childhood gym where she first began gymnastics. Coaching the team inspired her to begin competing again. The 2015 season was her first time ever training and competing in trampoline and tumbling. She brought home multiple medals during the season including State and Region 2 champion in Tumbling. She competed again in the 2016 season and met her personal goal of competing level 8 all around. Now the 2017 season has begun and she has decided to focus solely on coaching our growing team.  In 2015 Jenna also got back into Acrobatic Gymnastics and competed in Valley’s Got Talent. In 2016 Her group called Acro Continuum competed again in Valley’s Got Talent and won their category. In her spare time she enjoys horseback riding. She recently graduated with her AA and AS degree and has hopes of owning a gym one day so she can continue to teach kids something that she is so passionate about.
