The Coaches

Nattalie Kirkconnell

It’s funny how life circles back around. I began as a student of Rhythmic Gymnastics back in the day when I was only 4 years old. Rhythmic Gymnastics has been a solid foundation for a beautiful life that is always evolving. I remember many years ago stepping out onto the floor as a very nervous and unsure little girl. My childhood was filled with hard practice, challenging meets and unforgettable friendships. I became the State and Regional Champion at an early age, which only drove my determination to be the best I could be. With non-stop support from my family, I travelled all over the United States to compete. I was fortunate to have trained at the USA Olympic Training Center and to compete in the USA Nationals. One summer, I toured with a fabulous group of girls throughout Europe. These unforgettable experiences are what made me who I am today. I first found my love of teaching by becoming an elementary school teacher 8 years ago. From there, I connected back to my physical roots by landing into a fabulous Yoga class, which led me to become a Yoga Teacher for the last 7 years. And as the river flows, I stand here today on a path that has been waiting for me all along, coaching Rhythmic Gymnastics. What’s even better, is that I am coaching with MY very own coach. How amazingly cool is that? I am here to provide your child with lots of love and dedication to bring out their individual, beautiful qualities that every child has to offer! With hard work, dedication, determination and lots of love we will move mountains! Hope to see you at the gym!

Nattalie and Maureen’s story starts long ago. Their lives were intertwined many years ago when Nattalie was just a young child. Coach Maureen was Nattalie’s creative and inspirational coach for 12 years. Together they grew and learned many valuable lessons from one another. As the world moved on, so did each of their lives. They each travelled down separate paths for a period of time, only to be reunited here and now! Now they are joining forces once again as peers to coach and create a new generation of Rhythmic Gymnasts here in beautiful Palm Beach County!
