What's New at
EDGE?
With fall approaching
and school back in session, we have plenty of
new happenings at Edge!
Welcome Our New Office
Manager We'd like to welcome
our new office manager, Tiffany
Ross!
If you do not know Tiffany,
make sure to stop by the front desk and say
hello! You may have seen Tiffany working
the office in the winter and spring sessions in
the evenings and Saturdays, but she will
now be working the office full time.
Tiffany lives in Mountain
House, but grew up in San Jose. She has four
children, two of whom do gymnastics at
EDGE! She left her job of six years at
a law office to work at EDGE!! Tiffany loves
the beach, the snow, jet skiing, and spending
time with her kids.
Meghan will continue to work in the office,
but will be cutting back because she was
recently accepted to nursing school!
Congratulations
Meghan!
New Equipment at
Edge Edge and the Edge
Gymnastics Foundation have recently purchased
some new equipment! We would like to
thank the Edge Gymnastics Foundation for the
following: 2 extra large 4-inch landing mats and
a new balance beam, and coming soon you'll
notice a new bar over the pit, a spotting
platform for bars, and an air floor! We also
have the Boulder (a great back-handspring
trainer), two 8-inch landing mats, and
coming soon a new bar set, a new barrel, and
additional stall bars! We are so excited for all
of the new additions as the Edge programs
grow!
We've recently added some
"equipment" in the viewing area as well.
Make sure to check out the chalk board on the
pony wall in front of the bleachers... a great
way to keep your little one's occupied when
you're waiting for class or siblings!
Edge Attends Region One
Coaches Congress
Many of our Edge coaches
attended Region One Congress August 21 - 22nd,
an educational seminar hosted by USA Gymnastics,
and taught by gymnastics industry experts from
around the country! This was an exciting
opportunity for our coaches learn some new
techniques and tricks to bring back to Edge and
teach to your little children!
Fall
Cleaning
We have
recently had some cleaning done in the gym
to get ready for the new fall
session! Our carpets are looking
beautiful after being steam cleaned. As a
reminder, please make sure to eat and drink
in non-carpeted areas only to keep our gym
sparkling! |

Support the Edge
Gymnastics Foundation!
EDGE
parents can now support the EDGE Gymnastics
Foundation through eScrip by adding EDGE to
their account. eScrip allows up to 3
groups to support, so parents can still support
their children's schools. EDGE's eScrip ID number
is 500024563.
To support EDGE with the eScrip
program, parents need to go to www.escrip.com and register. If you
already have an account, you just need
to add EDGE as a group you want to
support. You can find EDGE, by either
entering in Group Name "EDGE Gymnastics
Foundation" or Group ID
"500024563". |
TRX Fitness
Classes Coming Soon to Edge Gymnastics!
Have you seen our
TRX apparatus hanging from the stall bars in the
gym and wondered what on earth was their
purpose? TRX Suspension Training is a
workout using your own body weight to
build strength, flexibility, balance, and core
stability, all at once!
Edge will
initially offer 30-minute adult classes.
We are in the process of developing our
schedule, so let us know if you are interested
and what times are best for
you!
It's
all core, all the
time! |

Introducing Coach
Jade!
Please
welcome to Edge Coach Jade McLean. Jade
joined Edge in mid-August and has been working
primarily with Devo (pre-competitive) and
Teams.
Jade
has been coaching gymnastics for 17 years.
Her gymnastics career began
at the age of 4, and the flipping and twisting
in the living room quickly turned into
competitive gymnastics through the age of 17.
Her favorite event as an
athlete was bars. As a coach,
she has worked with all ages and levels of kids,
from parent-tot classes to elites.
She has a passion for
conditioning and is a strong believer in keeping
kids healthy! Aside from
conditioning, Jade says her favorite thing about
coaching is watching athletes' challenges turn
into success. She has
experience as a gym owner, as
a level 8-rated judge, and she has participated
in multiple community outreach
programs.
Her
life outside the gym includes working on
completing a degree in sports management, as
well as a recertification as a personal
trainer. She also loves to
travel; she recently returned from Africa, and
will be travelling to Belize soon.
Her favorite color is GREEN and
she loves cucumbers and oranges!
She
has coached in the Bay Area for 8 years, and we
are excited to welcome her to Edge where she
will initially work with the Devo 3, Level 5
Team, and Optional Team, as well as preschool
and Academy classes! Please take a moment to
welcome Jade and introduce yourself!
New
Teachers!
In
addition to our new team coach, we would also
like to welcome our new Academy and Preschool
staff who completed the Edge teacher
certification and training over the
summer! Please welcome Savannah Spencer,
Gunjan Baird, Carrie Stouffer, and Rachel
Chiang.
We
also have several teachers in training, who may
be shadowing classes as they complete their
training. Please welcome Jordan Ratcliff,
Hannah Lachman, and Kirsten Trout. We look
forward to them joining our permanent teaching
staff very soon!
