Owner & founder

Melissa Doucette

Melissa is a former Team USA athlete who ranked second in the nation and fourth in the world in trampoline and tumbling. That experience shapes how she coaches: precise technique, honest feedback, and a belief that every gymnast can improve.

She has coached gymnasts of all ages and skill levels, from beginners taking their first steps to elite athletes preparing for high-level competition.

Her mission is to create a positive, inspiring environment where each gymnast can build confidence, develop skills, and reach their potential.

Our mission

Fundamentals first, progress for every gymnast

The gym focuses on beginner-level competition in a recreational setting. Our program develops strong fundamentals and supports each student's progress, whether they are learning a cartwheel for the first time or refining skills for more challenging routines.

When gymnasts are ready for a program beyond the gym's scope, our staff will help families transition to a gym that better fits their goals. We would rather see a gymnast thrive somewhere else than hold them back.

What we value

Positive environment

Encouragement that keeps gymnasts motivated and willing to try new things.

Solid fundamentals

Strength, flexibility, balance, and technique that carry into every level.

Individual progress

Each gymnast moves forward at their own pace, with support at every step.
