I train at KIPS Center for Fitness and
                                    Gymnastics in Hattiesburg, Mississippi.
                                    I train four hours a day Monday
                                    through Friday.  I am coached by one
                                    Russian and one Chinese.  The Russian
                                    is Viktor Firsov. He was a Russian
                                    National Team Coach, Olympic and
                                    World Cup Team Coach, and coached
                                    and mentored Vladimir Artemov
                                    (1988 Olympics Men's All-Around
                                    Gymnastics Champion).  Vladimir is a
                                    former coach of KIPS.  The Chinese
                                    coach is Wei Huang; she was the
                                    Chinese National All-Around
                                    Women's Gymnastics Champion,
                                    Chinese National Beam Champion,
                                    and competed in the World
                                    Championship.  I have competed for
                                    seven years on the KIPS Heartbeat
                                    Team.  I started gymnastics at 18 months
                                    at KIPS and I am still in it at the age of
                                    13!!  I love it then and I love it now!!
