Ms. IngridMs. Ingrid has been teaching Gymnastics for more than 30 years. She was a National Rhythmic Gymnast, as well as a National Diver in her home country of Chile. In Chile, she received a degree in Physical Education and began teaching 3 years of Artistic Gymnastics to the National Team in Chile.
By fate she landed in Birmingham in 1987, married, and she now has 4 grown daughters. In America, she immediately began her passion to teach by taking a head coach position at Mountain Brook Gymnastics for 6 years. Afterwards, Ingrid decided to establish her own business. She briefly taught at W.J. Christian school. However, the school was not able to accommodate the growing program. Fortunately, the Don A. Hawkins Recreation Center supported Ingrid's Gymnastics for 14 years. This recreational gymnastics program produced many happy gymnasts and proud parents. In 2006 her USAG sanctioned competitive team (Levels 1- 8) produced its first handful of State Champions! For the past 20+ years, Ms. Ingrid has worked and continues to work with numerous Pre-Schools and Daycare Centers bringing fun, safe and imaginative gymnastics to toddlers all over Birmingham! Ingrid's current location in East Lake opened in 2008 across First Avenue from East Lake Park. Thank you for supporting us! |
