Terry Gray - Head Coach
Gymnastics has been a very important part of my life for over 30 years. As a youngster, my parents owned a small club in Ohio where I began my involvement as a gymnast. When my competitive career ended I was not ready to leave the sport that had been such a big part of my life. While attending Kent State University I became an assistant coach for the women’s team along side Head Coach Brice Biggin. I also began coaching at a small club, training the girl’s team and within a couple of years I knew what I wanted to do. I opened up FLYTZ USA Gymnastics Inc. in September of 1995. In a short time we became the premier club in Northern Ohio. In 1999 I joined Mary Lee Tracy for two years in Cincinnati where I helped train some of the biggest names in the sport such as Kim Zmeskal and Dominique Moceanu. I sold my gym in 2005 and moved out here to Vegas. I love it here because it never rains, in Ohio it rains all the time. I have been very fortunate in my gymnastics career to be surrounded by some amazing athletes, coaches and parents. I have had a great deal of success and a lot of great memories. I am looking forward to creating many more with the athletes, coaches and parents of Browns gymnastics. I am looking forward to meeting all of you as well as helping your daughters reach their goals.
