“"If at first you don't succeed try try again!"”
Shannon Michael
I started coaching gymnastics when I was an optional gymnast in Bend, Oregon at the age of 14. I continued to coach and compete as a gymnast until I was 18 after which I joined the Army and moved to North Carolina. After spending six years in the Army, I moved back to Oregon and began coaching again. In the past four years I have had the opportunity to coach preschool through optional level gymnastics in Oregon while attending college at PSU and serving as a Flute Player in the National Guard. I graduated from PSU in the Spring of 2009 and have been lucky enough to find a full-time job doing exactly what I love to do!
