Girls Gymnastics Team

The goal of EGA's Women's Gymnastics program is to bring our young athletes to their fullest potential in competitive gymnastics.

Our competitive team program puts an emphasis on discipline, perseverance, mental awareness, and team unity. Our highly experienced coaching staff is dedicated to offer each gymnast the best professional instruction in competitive USA Gymnastics. They are extremely passionate about their role in guiding gymnasts through training and helping them develop into strong, disciplined athletes both mentally and physically.

Our competitive girls team members practice 8-25 hours per week.

August 2018 Student of the Month: HALEY!

We are proud to announce Haley Adams (JO Level 8) as our August Student of the Month!

Haley's favorite event is Bars because "It has always been easy for me." Her favorite gymnastics skill is "a Free hip giant on Bars and Handstands... everywhere!". Haley started gymnastics when she was just 3 years old! Sometimes "working as hard as I can every time I'm at practice" can be challenging, but she loves working hard to learn a new skill and getting it! To date, Haley's biggest gymnastics accomplishment is "Getting my Level 8 skills! -- Thank you to my Coaches... Without them, I would not be where I am today". When she's rarely not at the gym, Haley likes to play fornite and do handstands, and her favorite book is Raising the Bar by Laurie Hernandez. Not a lot of people know Haley loves spending time on the lake boating with family.

Keep up the good work, Haley!

EGA's 2018 Open House was a BLAST!

July 2018 Student of the Month: ERIKA!

We are proud to announce Erika Lattimore (JO Level 9) as our July Student of the Month!

Erika's favorite event is Bars because "the new skills are really exciting to learn and execute!" Her favorite gymnastics skill is "a Front Giant on Bars". Erika started gymnastics when she was 3 years old at EGA in the Baby Cubs class! "Gymnastics takes a lot of hard work, time, and dedication both mentally and physically, but it's worth it when you get new skills and great results in competition!" Erika loves that gymnastics is always different -- "Each day and each level brings new challenges and exciting skills". To date, her biggest gymnastics accomplishment is "Getting 2nd Place on Bars at Regionals this past season!". When she's rarely not at the gym, Erika likes to spend time with family and friends, and her favorite book is Courage to Soar by Simone Biles. Not a lot of people know Erika is moving to Georgia on Friday -- "I am so thankful to my EGA Coaches who have taught me great gymnastics and set me up for success at my new gym... I will miss you all!" ... And EGA will miss Erika.

Keep up the good work, Erika! Good luck to you at your new gym! You will be deeply missed.
