Instrumental To Your Journey : Coach Leslie Garman and Coach Macy Mills

Vitality Gymnastics: With a combination of raw talent and relentless work ethic, Eden Samson has become an exceptional athlete, teammate, leader, coach and person! She was born with a natural curiosity for this sport and over time, after years of backyard tumbling, basement beam work and living room floor routines, she grew her love and passion for gymnastics. She finally made the decision to start learning the art of technique with the help of coaches in a real training facility at age nine. Once she stepped foot into the gym she excelled quickly, starting on team immediately upon her arrival. She quickly established herself as an integral member of the team, contributing both her skills and her passion to its success. Though Eden has faced her fair share of mental blocks, growth development setbacks and life-changing experiences, she has consistently overcome obstacles with resilience and determination. She has exemplified what it means to be a true athlete and leader in this sport, but we have also had the privilege to witness what an incredible Mother she is to her young son, Bryson. With the support and love from her family, friends and Boyfriend, Chase, Eden continued taking a full class schedule every year, earning a 4.2 GPA with Honors, on top of her continued training in the gym. Her story is a testament to perseverance, marked by unparalleled achievements that set her apart in ways few can match. As she wraps up this season, she will continue to move forward as a role model and inspiration to others, through her love of the sport and beyond. We are so proud of you Eden, for staying true to the incredible person you are and continuing to shine in everything you do!
