Delayne McKenzie (Fudge): Owner / Head Coach / Program Director (USAG Junior Olympic Team Coach Certified) 

"Gymnastics has been apart of my life for as long as I can remember.  I grew up in gyms; since mom had owned multiple by the time I was 6 when we opened Flipz in 2001.  Took my first steps on the gym floor.  Mom tried to get me to walk on the beam before I even knew how to walk.  I competed up through level 9 (qualified and competed at regionals twice) and by then after a few injuries and multiple years of trying to make a come back I took a step back from gymnastics to focus on school.  Never did I think I would get into coaching... but one day mom called and said we were short on staff and needed a coach for our new non-sanction team kiddos.  I had this little group of 5 kids so eager to learn and I fell in love.  I loved to see how quickly these kids were learning and how much they loved the sport.  That was back in 2015 and I have been coaching and loving it ever since.  Every year the girls surprise me more and more on what they are able to accomplish with their amazing teammates and the wonderful staff here at Flipz USA."
