MEGA Gymnastics "McAlester Elite Gymnastics Academy" is a Christ centered environment dedicated to providing quality instruction in the sport of gymnastics. We take pride in teaching kids at all skill levels the fundamentals of gymnastics as well as advanced skills for the competitive gymnast.

Coach Heidi was a competitive gymnast in her youth and began coaching in 1982. She received her teaching degree from Hiram College in Ohio, then moved to Oklahoma in 1995 to attend Rhema Bible Training Center.

​

Coach T (Mike), a former Texas A&M competitive gymnast, began his coaching career in 1978. He's held certifications as a Men's and Women's judging, special needs gymnastics and has successfully coached Preschool through Elite Level Gymnastics.

​

Both coaches started their careers in the Bedford, Texas School District, both spent time in Ohio and both found their way to Oklahoma in the '90's. Ironically, they never crossed paths until 2000 when Heidi put her children in gymnastics at Tulsa World of Gymnastics and began coaching for them.

​

Both would have lives that took them in different directions, Heidi as a youth pastor and homeschool mom, Mike as a gymnastics and diving coach in Tulsa, Muskogee and Bartlesville.

​

God being God and doing what he does best, God inspired courage in these two to make an appointment to talk about gymnastics programming and equipment in the Fall of 2016. That meeting led to phone calls that turned into sharing and praying. In the Spring of 2017 the 2 married and now coach side by side, loving every moment and thanking God for the chance to share their passion and His glory with all the children that enter MEGA Gymnastics.
