OCTOBER 2023

Hello Team Parents and Happy Fall!


As the holiday season approaches, we're reminded of how Community plays a pivotal role at Intown Stars. Having a supportive and nurturing community around you is critical for gymnasts. It is a highly difficult, often all-encompassing sport that requires a lot from young athletes. Community makes it worth it to keep coming back to the place you know you're supported to do really hard things. But being a part of a close community is also pretty great for celebrations and parties, like when it's holiday time!


Our gymnastics community provides a safety net for both successes and setbacks. Celebrating victories together and offering consolation during losses as a community creates resilience, empathy, and confidence in the individuals within that community. And we're pretty proud of our amazing athletes and so grateful we are all a part of the same community.


Wishing you a beautiful October!


In gratitude,

Anna

Gymnasts of the Month

Congratulations Ah'lai (Level 8) & Aubry (Xcel Gold)

Ah'lai is an athlete that not only works hard in the gym, but has been truly setting the tone & expectation on our team of what it means to be a team player in for ISG Community. Wonderfully leading by example in workouts, she is an integral part of the glue that makes InTown gymnastics both special & excellent. Ah'lai, thank you for helping your teammates & coaches in instilling a strong, driven & passionate culture at InTown!

Aubry is not only a dedicated and hard working gymnast who is always ready to lend a hand or word of encouragement to her teammates, but she is also an amazing artist who has a talent for creating unique, beautiful custom designed leotards.

Coaching Spotlight

Coach Lexi joined our Team Program as a Developmental Team coach. Her energy and commitment to details made her a great candidate for a Team coach. It’s been a pleasure to watch Lexi mold & shape her athletes as she keeps her intentions consistent and her high expectations at the forefront. Lexi keep doing what you are doing! Your InTown families appreciate it!
