MICHELLE DODGE
Receptionist and Social Media Coordinator
I started working at Gonyons Gymnastics in 2003. I was hired in as a coach’s assistant. By the end of my first year I was coaching my own classes. At the end of my third year I became the Preschool Head Coach. I was Safety Certified, USAG Certified, and First Aid Certified.
Sadly, in 2010 an injury forced me to give up coaching. Switching gears, I became part of the office staff. In addition to office management, I coordinate the information that goes out on all of Gonyons Gymnastics social media sites. Recently, to further my training, I've attended a Facebook Marketing seminar. I'm dedicated, hardworking, and proud to be a part of the Gonyon’s team.
