I AM USA Gymnastics
Last week I was speaking with my “gym sister” Wendy Bruce-Martin. We both are proud of the work that we do in gymnastics and in the community. We were relating stories of some of the great things we have heard over the summer. Coaches and club owners going out of their way to help families in need. Gymnastics professionals rallying around a coach who was stuck with sudden illness. Coaches going into the “rival” clubs gym to help out when their “rival” had a death in the family. We all know great stories like these.
Wendy had the brilliant idea that we should start a hashtag showing positive things that we do in our communities, in our gyms, at camps etc and be proud that we are part of USA Gymnastics.
#IamUSAGymnastics
#WeareUSAGymnastics
I posted a couple of tweets last week and a few photos on Instagram using these hashtags. I believe this is something we all can get behind. Let’s carry this through Championships and National Congress.
We each see things we are proud of. We each do things that is WAY MORE than just teaching gymnastics. It is time to tell the world!
