My daughter was a gymnast from very early in her life. She started out in another state. We moved to Texas and spent time at a number of gyms and after several years came to Texas Best. At the time, TBG was very small, operating out of a strip mall space. As my son had also been a gymnast, we were well versed in the operations of gyms from cost to practice schedules to coaching styles, etc... Upon meeting Tricia, I knew we had found a very different concept in gymnastics. It was immediately evident that she truly loved the sport, the gymnasts and most importantly was concerned for their growth and development as individuals.
The atmosphere was very different than anything we had experienced. Her gentle but, firm manor clearly resonated with not only the gymnasts but, the families as well. It was relaxed and truly a team environment. She was fair, even and did not play favorites. The girls were relaxed and wanted to work hard to please Tricia, not because they were afraid of her. It was because they respected and loved her. And they knew she loved them.
Unlike so many coaches who road their success on the backs of the gymnasts until they burned them out, Tricia was as concerned with allowing them to be little girls first, then successful gymnasts. She created an efficient coaching environment with focus in all the right places.
Our years at TBG were some of the best my daughter had in youth sports/activities and I am so grateful for the time my daughter spent with her. I wish all youth coaches were as concerned with mentoring healthy, happy athletes as Tricia has been. She is a blessing to any child she encounters.
