Vicky’s love of dance began at 4 years old. She took Ballet, Tap, Jazz and Tumbling from Cindy King Dance Studio, in Maryland for 7 years. During those years she was involved in several public and private performance recitals. Her years of professional training prepared her to later design her own choreography for school performances. At 12 years old she auditioned and was selected for a Ballet-Pointe class at GJ Dance Studio, where she also took gymnastics. Vicky has a passion of the true classical arts and finds great joy in sharing her passion with every little girl in her class.

Gymnastics has been part of my life since I was very little. I started rec classes when I was 3. By 8 years old I joined the level 5 team at Gwinnett Gymnastics center. I competed through level 8 until I was 13 years old. Once high school came along I made the transition to cheerleading and cheered all four years for various sports and I was part of my high school’s very first competition squad my senior year. After high school I went to college at UGA and kept up with my tumbling as a hobby. Prior to teaching rec classes here at All Around I taught rec gymnastics for 2 years at Gwinnett Gymnastics Center. I have been part of the All Around Gymnastics family since November of 2010. It has been such a blessing to get to know so many smiling faces here and I think I have the most fun and fulfilling job that there is to have! I am married with 2 little boys of my own.
