For 40 years, Bill and Sharon Grogan have helped Paragould athletes learn more than gymnastics. They've taught them grit. In this episode, Bill and Sharon share how their own experiences with gymnastics and cheerleading eventually led them to coach nearly 100 kids at the Paragould Community Center. Seeing a clear need in the community, they took a leap of faith and opened Champions Gymnastics in 1986. They reflect on the loyal people who helped them build the business, Bill's experience working with Olympic medalist Earl Bell, and the many athletes who became like family along the way. It's a story of entrepreneurship, perseverance, community, and four decades of lasting impact in Paragould. In the end, not only have they built a successful program, but they've developed a growing family. 

Get ready for a jam-packed episode of The Chad & Cheese Podcast as hosts Joel Cheesman, Chad Sowash, and Emi B serve up their trademark mix of industry news, corporate earnings, and unfiltered banter. The episode kicks off with personal updates and shout-outs, covering everything from Chad's slippery "Charlie Brown" beach wipeout in Portugal to a Harvard report on workplace outcomes, the rise of late-night interviews for night owls. As the episode shifts into corporate strategy, the hosts put the latest financial filings and major market moves under the microscope. You will hear them break down the Q2 earnings, cost-cutting strategies, and future outlooks for ZipRecruiter, Recruit Holdings, and Indeed. The team then brings back their signature "Buy or Sell" segment to grade recent consolidation in the space, evaluating MetaView's acquisition of Reval (and its autonomous coworker "fillmore"), CareerMinds picking up Jobrapido, and the big transition of a long-time leader at LinkUp. Finally, the episode tackles the serious side of hiring tech with a look at global regulatory compliance and vendor transparency involving Maki People, Mochi AI Assessments and Recruitics, before winding down with a nostalgic debate over the unexpected relaunch of MySpace. To find out who gets a "Buy," who gets a "Sell," and exactly why the hosts are skeptical of the latest AI trends, you will have to tune in to the full episode.

Many CrossFit Coaches and Owners struggle to program and coach high-skill gymnastics that actually help their athletes unlock new skills.

World Champion Sean Townsend joins GymnasticsVille Host Mubarak Simmons to preview the 2026 U.S. Gymnastics Championships. Townsend won a World title on parallel bars in 2001, the first American man on a Worlds podium in 22 years, and trained alongside Mubarak at Houston Gymnastics Academy under coach Kevin Mazeika. Today he's the head coach there, with two of his own athletes competing in Phoenix this week. With Asher Hong, Brody Malone, and Donnell Whittenburg all out of the field, Townsend breaks down why he thinks Malone is playing the long game, names his five-man pick for the World team in Rotterdam, and explains why he believes the 2032 Olympic team could be the best in U.S. history. He also shares the untold story of competing at the 2001 World Championships in the weeks after 9/11, when his team was told they weren't going, then found out two weeks later that they were. This is the second of two GymnasticsVille previews ahead of Phoenix. Listen to the first, with Highland Park ISD Gymnastics Coach Justin James, wherever you get your podcasts.

On July the 4th 2026, surrounded by family members, loved ones and close friends I married the most beautiful person in the World. It was truly the best day of our lives and we both felt incredibly lucky to have shared the experience with soo many wonderful human beings. Ozzy is now two and a half years old and growing at a pace that me and his Mum find rather bewildering. The past twelve months have been full of both challenges and positive milestones in all aspects of my self employed work. I've shared my Olympic story with thousands of children again this academic year, coached many young gymnasts at both ends of the performance pyramid and have had many exciting opportunities to work with elite athletes. Gymnastics continues to evolve but as we reach the half way point in the LA 2028 Olympic cycle the financial framework within the sport is something I'm watching extremely closely. A wedding signifies the start of a brand new chapter and I feel optimistic about the possibility of building a long lasting legacy that will give back to the sport of artistic gymnastics for many years to come. And this is my story. 

Welcome back to Goalie Science — Episode 148. Derek is ready for hockey season. Jamie is running on an iced espresso and white monster combo and fixing up a house he probably shouldn't have bought. Both are ready to get into it.

Theres coaching and there's special coaches who do special things and Sarah Mercer passed by the half time show to share her experience and knowledge.

The countdown to LA28 has officially begun, and there's no better way to kick it off than looking back at the gymnast who made history in Seoul. Three-time gold medalist Daniela Silivas joins Dance Dad with John Corella to explain how ballet training shaped her gymnastics long before LA28 was even a headline.   Daniela grew up training in communist-era Romania, where her first year of gymnastics consisted entirely of ballet, flexibility, and strength training, seven days a week. She breaks down how gymnasts use dance training to build the control that shows up later on beam and floor, the same foundation today's LA28 hopefuls are building, whether they realize it or not.   She also revisits her floor performances at the 1987 World Championships, where she earned three perfect 10s across the competition, and the story behind the skill now known as the Silivaș mount on balance beam. That routine helped carry her to Seoul, where she medaled on every event and became one of the most decorated gymnasts in Olympic history.   As the world turns its attention to LA28, Daniela's story is a reminder of what it takes to get there. Listen to the full episode to hear how a ballet training that began when she was five years old in Romania turned into three Olympic gold medals, and why the fundamentals still matter more than the flash.   Episode Breakdown: 00:00 Meet Three-Time Gold Medalist Daniela Silivas 02:24 Winning World Championship Gold As A Team 06:51 Inside The Legendary 1987 Romanian Team 10:59 Why Ballet Comes Before Gymnastics In Romania 16:24 Performing Compulsory Routines For Judges And Crowds 20:27 Throwing A New Skill At The Olympics 27:33 Falling In Love With Gymnastics At Five 33:44 Turning Nerves Into Confidence On Beam 38:14 Coaching The Next Generation Of Gymnasts 47:44 Creating The Silivas' Mount On Beam   Connect with John Corella: Follow Dance Dad with John Corella on Instagram Follow John on Instagram Join Dance Dad with John Corella on Patreon Visit John Corella's website Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm

Texas produces roughly a quarter of the nation's elite gymnasts. Until this year, it had zero Division I women's gymnastics programs. That just changed. On this episode, Texas coach and judge Justin James joins GymnasticsVille to break down Texas State University's historic launch of the first D1 women's gymnastics program in state history. Justin is the Head Girls Gymnastics Coach at Highland Park ISD, Director of Recruiting for the Texas Armadillos GymACT team, and a member of the Texas and National Gymnastics Judges Associations, with nearly 14 years as gymnastics director at Kingwood High School before that. We get into: - The Oklahoma connection behind Texas State's decision, and why the school's president credits OU head coach K.J. Kindler with helping him see it through - Why it took 40 years for a Texas school to go D1, from football economics to Title IX - Inside the Aggie Ascension, the group working to bring a varsity program to Texas A&M - Why Texas State's location makes it a recruiting goldmine - McMurry's surprise new program and the murky history of Houston Christian's old varsity status - Justin's read on the men's gymnastics scene heading into the Xfinity U.S. Championships and LA 2028 Read more at gymnasticsville.com  Watch the full video on YouTube: https://youtu.be/gKQSq5vRzU8  Follow Justin James: Instagram: @justinwjames X: @TheJustinJames Follow GymnasticsVille: Instagram: @gymnasticsville TikTok: @gymnasticsvillehq

Host Jeremy C. Park interviews Mitch Gaylord, who discusses his Olympic gold medal winning gymnastics career, his transition into acting including roles in movies like Batman Forever, his keynote speaking, and his current work as a producer with Higginbotham Financial. Mitch shares his background, explaining that while he originally dreamed of playing football or baseball, his growth trajectory and the encouragement of his parents led him to discover his natural talent for gymnastics through tumbling and trampoline classes. He describes the feeling of "flying and defying gravity" that initially drew him to the sport. Mitch highlights what it takes to succeed in gymnastics, covering the importance of discipline, core strength, and mental strength beyond just physical talent. He shares a challenging experience at the Junior National Championships in New York, where he felt intimidated by the competition and made mistakes in 50% of his routines, as a result, missing a key opportunity to advance. This experience marked a turning point in his career, prompting him to commit to improving his mindset and confidence moving forward. Mitch talks about his transition from UCLA to becoming a top-ranked athlete, describing how Kurt Thomas' belief in his potential led to a pivotal decision to leave UCLA for a year of intensive training. During that year, Mitch went from being an alternate in 1981 to becoming number two in the country in 1982, and eventually reaching the top ranking in 1983 and 1984. Mitch discusses his decision to return to UCLA for the 1984 season and the team's historic NCAA championship win. He then describes the pressure and expectations during the 1984 Olympic Games in Los Angeles, where the U.S. men's gymnastics team, including Mitch Gaylord, Tim Daggett, Peter Vidmar, Bart Conner, Jim Hartung, and Scott Johnson, competed with a home court advantage at UCLA's Pauley Pavilion. Although picked to place third at best, the team ultimately defeated the world champion Chinese team and won the gold medal, marking the first time in history that a U.S. men's team achieved this feat, and Mitch emphasizes the importance of team support and unity in their success. Mitch shares two special moments from his Olympic experience in the 1984. The first was scoring the first ever 10.0 in U.S. men's gymnastics during the compulsories, which created momentum for the team. The second was a personal disappointment when he failed on high bar, but was supported by teammate Peter Vidmar who reminded him of the team's greater mission. Mitch reflects on his Olympic gymnastics career, where he won gold, silver, and bronze medals, and he shares how his experience transitioned into a career in film and stunts, including working on Batman Forever. He talks about being a keynote speaker and explains his two signature keynote speeches: "Raising the Bar" and "Turning Fear into Fuel," which draw from his athletic career to inspire audiences about overcoming challenges and building confidence. He also discusses his current role with Higginbotham Financial, where he works in life insurance, particularly with high net worth clients, and emphasizes the importance of having conversations about life insurance protection for families.

In this episode of the Perform Happy Podcast, I sit down with Alyssa Olin, former Division I gymnast and licensed clinical social worker, to have an honest conversation about the difference between tough coaching and trauma in youth sports. We explore how harmful coaching practices can become normalized, the lasting impact they have on an athlete's mental health, and why every child deserves to have a voice and feel safe in their sport.Alyssa shares her own experiences growing up in gymnastics and explains how repeated fear, shame, punishment, and emotional invalidation can affect the nervous system long after an athlete leaves the gym. We also discuss the warning signs parents should watch for, why mental blocks often have deeper roots than people realize, and how learning to reconnect with your body and emotions is an important part of healing.In this episode you will hearWhy "normal" coaching behaviors are not always healthy or safeHow trauma can affect confidence, performance, and identityWarning signs that an athlete may be strugglingWhy emotions and physical symptoms deserve to be taken seriouslyHow parents can support instead of dismissing difficult feelingsWhy self-worth must extend beyond athletic performanceThis conversation is a reminder that great coaching builds trust, not fear. When athletes feel safe, heard, and valued beyond their results, they are far more likely to thrive both in sport and in life.Connect with Alyssa: https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/therapists/alyssa-olin-oswego-il/1579790Alyssa's website: https://www.dztherapy.com/alyssa-olinLearn exactly what to say and do to guide your athlete through a mental block with my new book "Parenting Through Mental Blocks" Order your copy today: https://a.co/d/g990BurFollow me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/complete_performance/Join my FaceBook page: https://www.facebook.com/completeperformancecoaching/Check out my website: https://completeperformancecoaching.com/Write to me!

The History of Italian Gymnastics traces the remarkable rise of one of the world's most successful gymnastics nations—from Italy's early Olympic champions and circus acrobatics roots to the Vanessa Ferrari revolution and today's powerhouse led by Alice D'Amato and Manila Esposito. We explore the forgotten pioneers, iconic eponymous skills, the dominance of Jury Chechi on rings, the 2019 breakthrough World medal, the unforgettable Paris Olympics, and whether Italy has what it takes to defeat Team USA during the Los Angeles quad.

What does 30 years of elite movement — from rhythmic gymnastics to international circus performance — teach you about the body? And how does that change the way you use Pilates with athletes? In this episode of The Pilates Lounge Podcast, Katie Crane sits down with Lauren Skopal — exercise and sports scientist, founder of Limber Sports Performance, and former international acrobat. Lauren brings a rare perspective to movement education. Her background spans 12 years of competitive rhythmic gymnastics, 15 years performing aerial and acrobatic acts around the world, and a career in sports science and Pilates. The conversation is rich, honest, and packed with practical insight for Pilates professionals working with active bodies. In This Episode, We Discuss Lauren's journey from elite gymnastics to international circus performing — and how that shaped her body awareness Why gymnastics-trained athletes make the strongest performers in disciplines like circus and acrobatics Common injuries in artistic athletes and how Pilates supports long-term joint health How Pilates can be embedded into athlete warm-ups, cool-downs, and strength and conditioning programs The gap between sports science education and what Pilates actually teaches about the body Why niching down in your Pilates business actually brings in more clients, not fewer Lauren's new online flexibility program inspired by gymnastics-based training Key Takeaways ✨ Body awareness starts young — and Pilates builds on that Gymnastics trains the body from a young age to move with precision, control, and effortlessness. Pilates shares that same attention to detail. Lauren sees a natural connection between the two disciplines — and uses both to help athletes understand how their body works. ✨ Pilates belongs inside the training program, not just the rehab room Most athletes only discover Pilates after injury. But Lauren makes the case for weaving it into warm-ups, cool-downs, and accessory work — before problems arise. It doesn't need its own time slot to be effective. ✨ Core-driven movement is a performance tool, not just injury prevention Pilates builds stabilization, movement control, and muscular endurance. Lauren says that when athletes know how to use their core well, it improves force transfer, biomechanics, and overall performance — not just joint longevity. ✨ Niching down builds authority — and attracts more of the right clients Lauren focuses her practice on athletic populations. Katie reflects on the same choice in her own studio. When you know exactly who you serve, you become the go-to person for that group. Referrals follow naturally. About Lauren Skopal Lauren Skopal is an exercise and sports scientist and the founder of Limber Sports Performance. She has over 30 years of experience in sport and movement as an athlete, international performer, coach, consultant, and educator. Lauren competed in rhythmic gymnastics nationally in Australia for 12 years before spending 15 years as an international acrobat and circus performer. She holds a Bachelor of Exercise and Sport and Health Science and a Master of Applied Sports Science from Deakin University. Lauren works with artistic athletes, gymnasts, dancers, tennis players, and circus artists — helping them build the stability, mobility, and movement quality they need to perform at their best.

Simone Biles and Rebeca Andrade are two of the greatest gymnasts in history. Yet they competed against each other just five times in nine years! In this episode, we tackle what may be gymnastics' biggest structural problem: the world's best athletes rarely get the chance to face each other. We propose a complete overhaul of the competition system, including world rankings, federation-free qualification pathways, athlete-controlled careers, an elite season, and fan-voted wild cards. We also explore how sports like tennis, the WNBA, and other professional leagues handle competition, athlete compensation, data rights, and fan engagement—and what gymnastics can learn from them. Plus, we discuss real-time scoring technology, VR and AR viewing experiences, digital-twin technology, and other innovations that could modernize the sport and make gymnastics easier to follow for fans around the world.

This week Scheana is flying solo and answering your wildest, messiest, and most unfiltered listener questions before jetting off to London with the band. She opens up about navigating betrayal in her marriage, why “100% perfect trust” isn't always a realistic end goal, and the emotional work that actually goes into rebuilding a relationship after hurt. Elsewhere, Scheana dives headfirst into the Marciano/Jessi drama: did she actually tell him to lie for her, why she's reconsidering close friendships with straight men after all this chaos, and the new revelation that completely shakes up the narrative. She also reflects on her own cringe-but-relatable post-divorce dating era, the unique nightmare that is dating while on reality TV, and why she avoided dating apps altogether when she was single. Plus, Scheana weighs in on Ally's messy-yet-iconic Perfect Match era, Summer House reunion timeline gymnastics, handling nonstop online hate, and whether her new music may or may not contain a few familiar inspirations. There's also a sweet Stassi mom moment, a mini rant about slut shaming, and a reminder that women are allowed to be messy, complicated, and human.

GymCastic Live: Featuring Chae CampbellReplay tickets available → Get tickets here SAM OLDHAM INTERVIEW British gymnastics legend Sam Oldham is here, and yes, we're going to talk about everything from winning Great Britain's historic (first in 100 years) bronze medal at the London Olympics that changed everything for British Gymnastics, to the chaos, comedy, and emotional whiplash of elite gymnastics life. Sam brings the rare combination of competition accolades, deep gym nerd-student credentials, and the kind of honesty about athlete culture that makes you gasp-laugh and then immediately need a therapy session. We discuss the pressure cooker of British Gymnastics, his friendship and love for his coach, surviving weight-obsessed culture he swore he would never succumb to, and being followed by a Japanese gymnastics spy!
