Allen

Coach Casey has been a very enthusiastic, passionate, and joyful member of ASI for the past five years. She is one of our most cheerful coaches in Allen who can discipline their kids with a mixture of laughter and hard work! You can see this work ethic in the variety of gymnastics classes that she coaches starting from toddlers all the way up to level 3 team. Her favorite event to coach is bars!
Gymnastics has been a big part of Coach Casey’s life since she was a little girl. She was a competitive gymnast for 9 years before becoming a varsity cheerleader in high school. She has been coaching gymnastics on and off since she was 16 years old. Her background with children just doesn’t start and end there, for she studied physical education at Missouri State University and has worked with special needs children for over 2 years.
Coach Casey believes that a structured, encouraging and real atmosphere is beneficial for children to strive. She sincerely believes that “gymnastics is great for the overall development of kids, physically and mentally, but also it’s just very awesome!” She says “not only does gymnastics help develop courage, strength, team work and self motivation, but it teaches them how to work hard for what they truly want”. She loves coaching at ASI since we allow every student to experience gymnastics by teaching them to believe in themselves.  A fun, rewarding and challenging experience is what keeps Casey going and we can not wait to see the many more triumphs she brings to our gym with her strength and determination!

We have been fortunate to have Coach Trent with us for the past 3 years! He has shown off his talent in multiple programs such as boys gymnastics, power tumbling, parties, and other fun products, making him an obvious choice for our Coaches Corner! Trent loves gymnastics because he says “it cultivates balance, coordination, air awareness, strength, and speed, and these things translate well into almost any other sport.”

Trent is described as a hands on, energetic, and an encouraging coach and his kids are always excited for his class! What Trent loves the most about being able to coach his students is “the potential of being able to leave a lasting positive impact on my kids.” When Trent isn’t coaching he’s practicing martial arts which he has been doing since he was 7 years old, he says “it plays a major role in my life and how I see the world. It also lends itself surprisingly well to coaching gymnastics.”
Not only does Trent love working with his students, but also with his coworkers. Working with similarly goal oriented people, Trent has been able to develop positive relationships with his fellow coaches, and he says, “my coworkers are some of the best friends I have, and it is a wonderful to enjoy the work I do and the people who work with me.” We truly enjoy having Trent on our team, and look forward to working alongside him week after week!

Brittany has several years of experience with working with children. She started out babysitting and began coaching in her junior year of high school. Her favorite event to coach is balance beam! Brittany is a strict but energetic coach, and believes gymnastics is great for kids because it “builds strong character by teaching kids to overcome their fears. Gymnastics also makes kids very athletic. In my experience, a kid who can do gymnastics can play almost any other sport and excel at it”. Brittany loves ASI because it’s a fun place to work. “Everyone is so nice and friendly, and the energy in the gym is awesome!” We feel very lucky to have a coach with Brittany’s expertise.

As soon as she heard about the opportunity to coach here she knew it would be the perfect fit for her! She remembered how much she looked forward to open gym as a child and wanted to give other children that same excitement. Coach Chelsea feels that she has already formed a bond with so many kids through gymnastics.  “It allows each kid, from all shapes to engage in an activity that can help develop all parts of the body. It gives them a chance to learn discipline as well as guidance to becoming better athletes and human beings. Coach Chelsea mentioned one of reasons she loved coaching so much is because she, “gets to watch some of them grow from their first class in Kidz Gym and continuing to move on up.” ASI Mesquite feels so lucky to have a coach that makes it a priority to make a difference in these kids lives.

She is always updating her student’s parents about their progress. She greets her kids with a huge hug and excitement. We asked her what she thought made gymnastics great for kids,

“Its helps them learn about their body and the strength that they didn’t know they had. How to control their legs, arms, stomach, everything! They learn discipline and how to conquer fears because in gymnastics those two are important.”

Coach Joanne answered why she loves coaching at ASI,

“My kids! I can have a bad day but one class can just turn that all around. They are so animated and are like mini adults who make my job more fun! Plus, I have always had a passion for gymnastics, so being to combine two of my loves is EPIC!”
