My name is Autumn and I started going to this exact gym when I was 3 years old, and from Age 3 I fell in love with the sport of cheer and gymnastics. I was always the smallest in my class and the big true leaders would always have fun and would make me fly these big scary stunts but I never had any fear. I grew up in the gym and was part of the first cheer team coach Lexie taught. I did All Star cheer from 4th grade to 8th grade, and then continued to compete in High School cheer all four years. I've had many dreams when it comes to the sports of cheer and gymnastics but deep down I will always know that this gym is home.

My name is Lexie Brown and I am the owner and head coach at Elyte Tumbling and Cheer! I have a wonderful husband and four crazy kiddos. Lydia, Jack, Annie and Henry. My little family lives at the Geyser Ranch where we spend our time with a lot of cows, a handful of horses, half a dozen chickens, dogs, cats, and a majestic heard of backyard elk! When I'm not coaching I enjoy sewing, reading (now listening to audible), vising family, and making memories with my kids.

My background in tumbling started in gymnastics around age 3. I was a competitive gymnast in Iowa before moving to Ely when I was 12. Upon arriving to Ely I quickly found my niche with the Ely Elite All Stars cheer program. I competed with that team for 5 years. After graduation I began coaching at Airtime Training Center in Springville Utah. There I found my love for coaching and was the director over the tiny tots program, coached recreational gymnastics and tumbling classes, as well as assistant coached the competitive cheer teams levels 1-4.

I moved home in 2013 to prepare to serve a mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints and started coaching at Tumble Bugs Gym. I loved being back in the gym that had given me so much over the years! Upon arriving home from my mission I slowly worked with the owners of Tumble Bugs Gym on the skills necessary to bring back the competitive cheer teams to the gym! I then purchased the gym in 2020. I have a passion for cheer and tumbling and love having the opportunity to share this amazing sport and my passion with so many in Ely, Nevada.
