We help her build them.
Where she learns she can.
The first cartwheel. The first pull-up on the bar. The first stuck landing, and the way she looks for you in the lobby right after. That look is what we coach for, and it is built one brave try at a time.
Call · 937.723.8799That is the whole thing. Not the medals, not the levels, not the trophy case. A coach who knows her name, knows what she is scared of this month, and knows the exact moment she is ready to try it without hands.
Gymnastics is how we do it. Being known is what she takes with her.

Meet the team

Owner · Auburn University gymnast
Olivia fell in love with gymnastics at ten and went on to compete for Auburn University on a full scholarship. She bought and rebuilt Performance Gymnastics to bring an elite program to the Dayton area, and to share the sport with every family who walks in. What she cares about most is the relationship with each gymnast: confidence, faith, and becoming the best athlete and person they can be.

General Manager / Head Team Coach
Jeanette competed for twelve years at Stars Gymnastics. The day she retired at sixteen, her coach offered her a coaching job, and she has coached competitive teams ever since. She came to Performance to build a competitive team and an elite program, and she runs the gym day to day.

Preschool Director
Holly runs Tumble Bugs, and she is the energy in the room. Every preschooler who comes through the door is safe first, having fun second, and learning as much as they can, in that order. She lays the foundation: the confidence and first skills that carry a child into the next level when they are ready to keep going.

Instructional Director
Michaela grew up in gymnastics in New Jersey and started coaching at fourteen on her own coach's suggestion, moving to competitive coaching at seventeen. She is a USA Gymnastics judge. She runs the instructional program: every class from first cartwheel to advanced skills.

Social Media Director
Born and raised in Dayton, Brittany grew up at Stars Gymnastics, where she and Jeanette were teammates, and competed for Centerville High School. After a year in Germany as an au pair she came back to the sport, because, as her high school coach told her, all roads lead back to the gym. She tells Performance's story online.
