Really proud of the work we’ve done to better support these outstanding athletes in their journey of life. Our mission is to help our athletes thrive in life and in sport. We’ve made great strides in the last quad and are looking to do more.
I love this! Such an honor to witness this in person and be a part of Congress this year. I will support this mission in any way possible!
Kim Kranz, PT, DScPT, SCS, FACHE thank you for this post! It is very encouraging to see USAG focusing on the mental health of athletes and coaches! It would be amazing to see more opportunities provided to these hard-working athletes and coaches. For example, it would be awesome if USAG could help to promote city gymnastics teams across the nation similar to the NBA and WNBA! This would provide more opportunities for USAG athletes to participate in competitions. It would also provide more opportunities to support mental health awareness and build up the athletes and the entire sport!

Love to hear this! And for someone who works for a mental health company, as well as an ex-gymnast, I value those who try to make an improvement in their athlete’s lives ❤️
Kim, would love to chat about our ACT! Mental Health and Sport Certification U.S. Center for Mental Health and Sport

3moLiterally never attended a more positive and “light hearted” yet competitive atmosphere in Minneapolis. How the gymnasts interacted with each other. How the coaches and audience boosted each other up. It was very special to witness. Bravo!
