Hi I am coach David. I started at J.E.T.S. in 2005. I’ve coached in each of our different gymnastics programs (pre-school, recreational, A.A.U. and U.S.A. competitive teams). I love coming to the gym everyday and being surrounded by great kids, parents, and coaches. My goal is to make the sport of gymnastics an enjoyable experience for each gymnast.

Hi! My name is Carrie Klassen. I am a mom of two teenage boys. I teach preschool as well as intermediate level gymnastics. My love of the sport began when I was around ten years old. I learned the majority of my skills at a club in the cities prior to competing at a high school level. I judged high school gymnastics after graduating and while in college. For the last eight years I had been teaching tumbling to cheerleaders until I joined J.E.T.S. which is just a fantasic facility.  I am inspired by the enthusiasm and efforts of these young athletes and thrilled to be a part of it!

Hello my name is Phil Barton, and I’ve been coaching at J.E.T.S. for around 3 years now. I love juggling, yoga, and learning gymnastics skills of my own. I was never a gymnast as a kid, I just learned to do flips and handstands on my own. When I came to J.E.T.S. I could only teach boys beginners gymnastics. Now I have learned to teach many different boys and girls levels. It’s great to watch kids of all ages learn new skills and develop confidence.
