Our Staff Continue to Learn & Grow


This past July 14, Olympia, Team Central, and My Gym hosted a summer conference for all our staff.  Over 70 of our staff attended.  We had special guests Kate Day and Matt Zalewski come and talk to our staff.  Kate spent a couple of hours speaking about working with children with special needs and Matt spoke about athlete’s health and concussions.  We also had some of our own staff leaders give presentations on various different topics from skills and drills to customer care and service. 

August 9-11, we had 12 staff members go to Kansas City, MO for the USAG National Congress. USA Gymnastics National Congress & Trade show offers the best gymnastics education that the United States has to offer.  Olympia/Team Central were so excited to be able to provide this unique opportunity to our staff to attend educational presentations, as well as a number of live demonstrations, on a variety of topics, including coaching, judging, business, preschool, school-age/recreational, sports science, fitness, safe sport and more.  Upon returning from Congress, they will get an opportunity to then share what they learned to the rest of our staff.  Olympia, Team Central, and My Gym continue to encourage our staff to learn more and grow in their positions, in the sport of gymnastics, and in their personal lives.  We value these opportunities and want you to know that we continue to strive to be the Best in St. Louis!
