Hi, I'm Lauren, and I coach Recreational, Advanced and Squad classes. I've been coaching for 10 years, and my favourite things to coach are Bars and Tumbling. I love getting to know so many gymnasts and watching them progress and develop their skills.
​
I was a gymnast for 8 years, with my biggest competition being the Alternate Island Games in 2019. Before Artistic Gymnastics, I trained in Acrobatics, competing at Regionals and Nationals. I love incorporating acro skills into my coaching whenever I get the chance!
​
Outside of gymnastics, I've been doing CrossFit for 5 years, which allows me to use some of my gymnastics skills. Each year, I compete in the CrossFit Open, and for the past 2 years,, I've qualified for the Quarterfinals. Coaching and staying active are my passions, and I enjoy sharing that energy with my gymnasts!

Along with coaching, I work in a preschool and also coach trampolining. I've been involved in trampolining for over 15 years and even had the chance to compete in the UK when I was younger. I'm looking forward to helping each gymnast discover what they love and excel at in the gym.

Positive Coaching
Hi, I'm Elinor and I coach recreational, advanced artistic and squad gymnastics. Vault is my favourite apparatus to coach, but what I enjoy most is meeting gymnasts of all ages and learning how to coach new skills. It's amazing to see everyone progress and achieve their goals.
​
I did gymnastics for 12 years, competing in events likes the Alternate Island Games in 2019, two National tumbling competitions in Durham, and Regional acrobatic and tumbling competitions in the South West. Outside of coaching, I'm currently at Sixth Form studying English, Photography and History. I'm passionate about helping gymnasts grow, both in their skills and confidence, and I can't wait to see what we'll achieve together!

Hi, I'm Ella, and I coach both recreational and squad gymnastics classes. I've been coaching for a year, but I was a gymnast myself for 8 years. One of my proudest moments was competing in the Alternate Island Games in 2019, where my team won Bronze!
​
My favourite apparatus to coach is bars, but what I enjoy most is seeing gymnasts get excited about learning new skills and celebrating their progress.
​
Outside of coaching, I'm currently at Sixth Form studying Psychology, Sociology and English Literature. I'm passionate about helping gymnasts grow in their skills and confidence, and I'm excited to share my love for gymnastics with them!

Women's Artistic Level 1 (In progress)
Hi, I'm Sarah, and I coach the Display Teams! I love choreographing and teaching routines, especially on floor and beam, and I enjoy coaching floor skills, tumbling, dance and acro. My favourite part of coaching is working on pairs and group acro balances and lifts! It's so rewarding to see gymnasts collaborating and supporting one another.
​
I've been coaching for over 10 years, much of that time alongside Anna and Lauren. I also had the opportunity to live and coach in Cornwall, where I met Orla, who choreographed the floor routines for the 2023 Alternate Island Games.
​
Outside of the gym I work at the GSPCA, and have a huge love for animals!
