Jade brings not only competitive experience to the table, but tons of coaching experience too! She competed her way through JO Level 10 and has coached all ages and skill levels for 9 years. She most recently was a Compulsory Director before she decided to return to Laketown Gymnastics. There is no doubt she loves coaching, and is excited to raise her 2 young children with us!

Hisham is originally from Egypt, where he competed as a gymnast for 14 years, and was on the Egyptian National Team! He is a coaching specialist on Bars & Vault and brings 12 years of collegiate and USAG coaching experience to our competitive team! He has a fun energy he brings to practice, and we know to always be ready for a high five! When he's not here he enjoys spending his time with his wife and their brand new baby!
Coach Nick
Nick helps coach our Xcel program, our performance show team 'Tumblers' and is the friendly face you see out on the floor during Open Gym! Nick has worked with primarily our Gold Xcel group and helps with our Silver group too!
Coach Liv
Liv competed her way through the JO levels, ending at a level 10 and moving on to compete at Hamline University for 3 years, before joining the Chan/ Chaska High School competitors as an Assistant Coach. She brings tons of knowledge to our program and is so fun to be around!
Coach Jessie
Jesse has 20+ years of coaching experience, bringing some crazy awesome spotting techniques to our gym! He's coached many state champions (and won multiple titles himself in Football) and lives by the motto: 'If you believe you can achieve it!' He has a contagious positive and fun energy that you can see provides gymnasts with security and confidence to try big skills!
Coach heather
Heather coaches our Bronze & Silver Xcel Teams! She loves coaching these teams because they are essentially the first competitive opportunity for gymnasts and enjoys helping them learn the ins and outs of competitions and just how strong and capable they are!
Her daughter competes on our JO Level 4 team and they love being able to spend time together in the gym!
