In a historic moment for San Diego Gymnastics, two exceptional athletes are set to make their mark at the upcoming USAG Regionals. Kiana and Ellie, both products of the esteemed gym, are primed to showcase their talent, dedication, and the unwavering support of their community as they embark on this milestone journey.

Kiana: Blending Irish Dance with Gymnastics Mastery

Kiana's journey into gymnastics is a testament to her boundless energy and passion for movement. From her early days of self-taught acrobatics in local parks to her formal training at San Diego Gymnastics Gym, her progression has been nothing short of remarkable. Joining the gym after a family move in 2021, Kiana quickly found her stride and secured her spot in the Regional Championships after an impressive showing at the SoCal State Championships earlier this spring.

But Kiana's story is more than just about gymnastics. Alongside her gymnastics pursuits, she will also be representing the gym at the National Irish Dance Championships this summer in Texas, underscoring her versatility and dedication to her craft.

Ellie: A Beam Champion with a Passion for NCAA Gymnastics

For Ellie, San Diego Gymnastics has been the nurturing ground for her burgeoning talent and passion for the sport. From her tentative steps into her first gymnastics class at the age of 3 to her remarkable achievements as a Platinum athlete, her journey is a testament to her grit and determination. This year marks a significant milestone not only for Ellie but also for the gym itself as she represents them at the USAG Regionals for the first time in its history.

Beyond her achievements on the mat, Ellie's admiration for NCAA gymnastics, particularly teams like the Florida Gators and Alabama Crimson Tide, has fueled her aspirations. Her dedication to the sport extends beyond competition, as she draws inspiration from gymnastics icons like Simone Biles and Trinity Thomas for school projects and personal growth.
