About jennifer...

I started my love for gymnastics as a HS gymnast for Britton, SD from 1991-1996.  I helped the Britton team to many runner-up State Championships.  After graduating HS, I went to college at Southwest State University in Marshall, MN.  I wanted to continue somehow with the sport, so I looked into the town to see if they had a HS team.  I was lucky to find that they needed an assistant coach for the Marshall Tigers.  I was the assistant from 1996-2000.  During this time, I was fortunate to go on a trip July 1998 to Budapest, Hungary.  There I attended gymnastics facilities and met Henrietta Onodi who was a 1992 Olympic Gold and Silver medalist on Vault and Floor for Hungary.  This experience was once in a lifetime and started my drive to continue to be involved in the sport of gymnastics and operate my own gym someday.  After graduating college with an Art Education degree, I moved to Aberdeen, SD and became a substitute teacher at Aberdeen Central High School.  I wanted to take a break from coaching HS age, and I found out there was a youth program called the Aberdeen Gymnastics Association (AGA).  I became the AGA Director in 2001.  I soon met Gene Brownell, former Athletic Director for the HS, and found myself drawn back to the HS level gymnasts.  I became an assistant coach for CHS in 2001 and took over for the Varsity team in 2003.  I also took a job as one of the HS Art teachers where I taught for 12 years.  I chose to leave teaching to pursue my dream to own a gymnastics facility. After I left teaching, I became the gallery director for Benjamin Victor Studios which used to be located on the campus of Northern State University.  I continued to focus on the AGA youth program until August of 2015.  I made the decision to leave the AGA to open the Next Generation Performance Center.  My wonderful, supportive husband, Aaron, and I have two children who love to help out and have FUN at the Next Generation Performance Center!
