OCTOBER GYMNASTICS IS HERE & WITH A NEW INSTRUCTOR!

We’re excited to welcome Alex Carpenter to The Edge as our NEW gymnastics instructor for October!
 

Alex brings plenty of experience and a lifelong love for the sport! She participated in competitive gymnastics for 12 years, including 3 years at Parkway High School, where she also cheered. For the past 3 years, she has been coaching gymnastics at the YMCA and loves sharing her knowledge and passion with young athletes.
 

Alex currently attends Rhodes State College, where she is pursuing a degree to become a Physical Therapist Assistant. Gymnastics and tumbling have always been a big part of her life, and we’re excited to have her bring that experience to The Edge!
