Kelly Keown

Kelly Keown is a displaced mermaid and retired gymnastics coach who served the Georgia community for 31 years. While she has formal education in early childhood development, she has spent the last 31  years working on land producing many state, regional and national champions as well as college athletes. She is the owner of GYMPACT by Kelly that provides consulting services to gymnastics and cheer businesses to help them reach their full potential as well as the Co-Owner of REACH Coaches Education that provides on site hands on training for clubs & their staff.

Her coaching style is team focused and she inspires young women by helping them find their passion, drive, and inner strength to be the best possible athlete they can be. Just like a crusty barnacle, she can be crusty. Scrape away the rough exterior and you will find a coach that loves deeply gives her whole heart to her athletes.
 
Her heart desires to share her knowledge with the coaching community and create unity among the gymnastics world before she retires to her seaside shanty to spend her retirement days fishing, floating, and basking in the Gulf of Mexico sun.
