Brought to you by Beam Queen. Join the ultimate online platform for gymnasts and parents who are looking to level up in and out of the gym. It's where elite-level experience meets real advice. Within the app, you'll find on-demand videos for gymnasts and parents, live digital events, and exclusive Beam Queen perks. It's founded by Samantha Peszek, the creator of Beam Queen. She is a 2008 Olympic Silver Medalist, 2007 World Championships Gold Medalist, three-time NCAA Champion & 17-time All American for UCLA. She has always believed that beam is the "make it or break it" event. When you master beam, it leads to confidence on the other events as well. We love doing our Beam Queen Bootcamp events in person, but we want to give gymnasts around the world even MORE inspiration and education! Members of The Club will get access to the best gymnastics resources every single month from experts who have walked the walk. Get ready for challenges, pep talks, dances, tips from Olympians and NCAA Champions and live digital events. Don’t worry, if your gymnast can’t make the LIVE events, they will be recorded and uploaded to the app directly following the event, so you won’t miss a thing! Want to know the best part? Each week you’ll have the opportunity to check out the latest videos because we release NEW ones every week! So how will this help my gymnast? Not only will they receive access to all of the content in the on-demand library, they will also get access to exclusive live digital events designed just for them. Can’t tune in live? No problem. All events are recorded and added to your portal, so your gymnast will never miss out. I’m a curious gymnastics parent, sooo how will this help me? We love sharing knowledge with gymnasts, but parents—you deserve just as much inspiration and education! Let’s be honest… you’re at practices, you’re at meets—why not impress your gymnast by asking about her “Tkachev?” As a member, you’ll get access to expert-led gymnastics resources designed just for parents who want to stay informed and involved. Inside our on-demand library, you’ll find videos covering everything from nutrition, fear, and confidence to time management, injury prevention, and even college recruiting.
