We have been at COA Elite for over four years now. It started off with my oldest daughter who was coming out of youth cheer and wanted to experience all-star. Her baby sister shortly followed in her footsteps and created this passion not just for cheer but for the COA elite program. 

My child can come out of her shell here she absolutely loves the staff and coaches here at COA Elite she turns into this performer it’s like a switch turns on and she’s ready to go! She is pushed to limits we didn’t know she had with some amazing coaches in her corner cheering her on. My daughter has learned at a young age you don’t always win and COA Elite has helped teach my daughter grace and win or lose you always have dignity. She recently made a comment not too long ago “Mommy I can be ME at COA”  Shortly after I was blessed to be assigned to help in the gym. I feel like I was assigned to help keep the party going as soon as you walk in the doors you are going to have a great experience. COA has not only been a healthy outlet for my daughters and their confidence, but for me as well we gained friends that are considered family. 

COA elite also looks out for athletes moving on from the gym and have a next step to keep going in life whether it’s a career goal or school. The coaches and staff really admire the athletes rather than competitive or rising stars the entire gym becomes one and as a primarily African American cheer gym seen by the community that is what makes us the center of attention. We are caring we are welcoming we are family.
