This is what I LIVE to do. My love for Power Tumbling and Trampoline never went away. I just needed to find my way back. I had an athlete ask me "You really love what you do Coach Jill?". "Yes, I would never want to go work a 9-5 doing anything else." I lived in the gym growing up and I'll do it til the day I die. Life became easier when I knew what I was best at. When you know that you will never fail so long as your passion survives. You really have it made. I wish so much my dad could have seen me coaching 😭 He did do a lot for me in my sport, my team, and the USTA. He was so proud to hear I was back with USTA and coaching. He laughed his laugh and that ment approval. I didn't need it but, I was glad to hear it. It takes a great support system to also keep you going. I learned this through life. I will forever make an effort to let every Athlete who I have the opportunity to coach know just how much I'm here to support them in their sport now and through out life. I would never be the Athlete or Woman I am this day forward without this sport and having the Best Coach in the entire planet. To my Coach: @paula.grigsby.5 I could never thank you enough for the Life Lessons. Which started at 5 years old, to the much needed; What do I do now talks and supporting me still at the age of 38. To be coached by one of the best and Hall of Fame @usta_trampoline coach. I'm forever indebted. You have subbed in as MOM many times over and literally took me around this country to be able to compete and reach the levels I did. I can't say how grateful I am for you. Thank you doesn't even cover it. She has taught me everything I know in this sport. Now to be able to give back and coach others is all I want to do. An to the association I walked back into last year full of hugs like I never missed a National's. USTA means family. To me... It also means life. @usta_trampoline 💜💛🤸♀️💛💙🤸♀️💜💛🤸♀️💛💙 . . #USTAstrong #tnt #powertumbling #trampoline #doublemini #gymnast #trampolinist #coach #athlete #athletetocoach #USTA #florida #grateful #powerTumbler #powertumblingandtrampoline (at Lakeland, Florida) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cez57V2u3Ye/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
