Both Tim
and I are acrosport gymnasts. Together we have over 14 years of acro
experience.
I was first
introduced to acrosport gymnastics my freshman year in high school. I
attended a Seventh-day Adventist Academy in North Dakota, Dakota Adventist Academy, and became
part of their team, the Acrolights, under the direction of Tedd Webster.
While acrosports in an international competative sport, many Adventist
academies and colleges/universities have acrosport exhibition teams. Almost
all of these schools incorporate "Say No to Drugs" messages into their shows
and performances.
After graduating
from academy, I had the opportunity to join the Southern Adventist University
Gym-masters under the direction of Steve Jaecks. My husband, Tim,
was also a member of the team. While on the Gym-masters, we were able to
perform in the Columbus Day Parade in New York City as well as at several
NBA half-time performance--the Chicago Bulls, the New York Knicks, Indiana
Pacers, Atlanta Hawks, Milwaukee Bucks, Orlando Magic, and others. We
performed more than once at several of these events. The Gym-masters
also toured and performed for local schools and colleges/universities.
Tim and I after Homeshow
(April '99)
After my
first year at Southern Adventist University, Tim and I transferred to Union College in Lincoln, Nebraska.
We were members of the Union College Gymnaires coached by Frank Martinez for
three years. While on the Gymnaires, we had the opportunity to tour
to several different schools in the Midwest--North Dakota, Minnesota, Colorado,
Nebraska, Missouri. We also traveled to several SDA colleges for Acrofest,
an acrobatic extravaganza/convention for SDA academies and colleges. Our
team also traveled to Mexico during Spring Break 2000 to build an Adventist
church in Paraiso, State of Tabasco, Mexico.
From 2001-2003,
Tim and I taught at Guam Adventist
Academy where we also coached the Acro-Zorries. While we no longer
got to perform gymnastics, we taught 26 students from grades 8-12. Currently
we are teachers at Mount Vernon Academy,
and although we don't coach, we will will always be gymnasts at heart!
