Letter: Inversion Gym of South Lake Tahoe appreciates community support
Submitted by paula on Thu, 10/31/2024 - 10:22am
SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, Calif. - South Lake Tahoe is home to several incredible youth-building programs, each with its own unique culture and contribution to our children. Inversion Gym sets its tone with an industrial setting filled with skilled and heartfelt coaches, and smiling children who might be inverted or air-bound at first glance. The team at Inversion has encouraged a mindset of excellence while simultaneously achieving a lighthearted and fun frame of mind. The result empowers the athletes to believe in themselves, overcome difficulty, and have a “home away from home” in a sense.
The Inversion Gym of South Lake Tahoe has evolved into a community of building strength, friendship, perseverance and skill since Coach Amy Thompson and Tristan Cochrane took the stern ten years ago. The gym offers opportunities for many ages and skill levels, from parent-and-me classes for tiny tots to recreation and competitive routes for gymnastics, trampoline, and tumbling. Let’s not forget to mention the awe-inspiring ariel arts!
South Tahoe Inversion Athletes and the Booster Club wish to wholeheartedly thank the sponsors who donated to their efforts for a very successful 2024 season! The donations from the community helped the Inversion Booster team support purchasing its athletes' leotards and cover coach’s fees.
Over the 2024 season, the girls' Xcel Gymnastics Team celebrated over 254 top-three individual medals, 2 first-place team finishes, 4 second-place team finishes, and 2 third-place team finishes. Many athletes placed in the top three at the state and regional level.
The Trampoline & Tumbling Team is made up of co-ed athletes who range in age from 5 - 19 years old and includes the HUGS division - a competitive program for children with special needs. Altogether the T & T Team raked in 41 gold medals and 12 silver medals for the season, including states and regionals.
Local businesses will start to see Inversion Athletes visit to kindly ask for continued support as the 2025 season begins, any contribution is appreciated to ring in another successful season! These monies directly support the athletes in their endeavors and are organized by the Inversion Booster Club. Sponsors will receive a notation in the newspaper along with their names printed on athlete’s T-Shirts.
