I started classes here as a toddler. I always enjoyed
    coming and learning new tricks. WGC has had a
    great positive impact on my life as a whole. It got me
    active at an early age. It also spiked my competitive
    edge when we would have competitions for medals
    and ribbons. At WGC I created friendships that
    lasted a very long time. Coming into high school I
    ran into many girls I was in gymnastics with over
    the years. I created many memories there from
    countless hours of practice, fun, and the camp and
    sleep-over! I will never forget the fun I had there and
    it's impact on my life will forever be with me.

    I started gymnastics at WGC when I was 8 years old and very quickly fell in love with the
    sport. Gymnastics was everything to me. The sport, my teammates and my coaches helped
    make me who I am today. Doing gymnastics for ten years, yes it gave me strength, flexibility,
    cool skills, balance and other physical bonuses, but it also changed my attitude about myself
    and about life. It has helped me outside of the gym in every area of my life. Being a gymnast
    at WGC taught me determination and to never give up. My coaches always believed in me, even
    when I didn't believe in myself and encouraged me to keep trying. They kept us positive even
    when skills were hard, or fear crept in. We were taught not to give into defeat and to always
    give our all. There were days that you didn't think you could do one more tumbling pass or
    another routine on bars, but somehow you always made it through and your confidence in
    yourself and what you could do would rise. Gymnastics taught me to work as a team and push
    each other, to focus and block everything else out, that no matter what anyone else says I
    can do it. It gave me time management and responsibility. As a competitive level 10 gymnast I
    was in that gym more than anywhere else and I had to be very responsible with the time I had
    outside to get homework done, do well in school and balance life as a teenager. These are
    skills that I used when I went to college, in the work force and in my every day life still.
    After doing a sport like gymnastics, even today I am aware of being healthy and the way I
    eat. Gymnastics builds your self-esteem and makes you confident in your self.  It also gave
    me a support system of coaches that were always there.  Every kid needs an adult they can
    trust and look up to besides their parents who are going to help guide them not only in
    gymnastics but with life and the coaches at WGC did just that for me, especially my senior
    year of high school. WGC was like my second family that helped mold me into the person I am
    today.
