About

Hi, I'm Coach Ben. 

The Story

Growing up, I trained as a competitive gymnast in Franklin, TN, developing the technical discipline that defines my coaching style today.

​While I transitioned solely to basebal in High School—eventually accepting a college scholarship—I realized quickly that I prefer instructing gymnastics. So, I maintained a coaching position throughout my time earning my degree. After a brief time in the corporate world, I adjusted to coaching full-time in 2024. 

The School of Tumbling was founded as a way to take everything I learned from years of competitive training and share it in a way that truly puts the student first. The typical gym experience can miss that personal touch, but this space offers athletes the individual attention and clear goals they deserve. I’m excited for the 2026 season, and I can’t wait to help our students reach their next milestones with confidence. 

​Our Philosophy: The Science of Progress

​At The School of Tumbling, I don't just instruct tumbling at a surface level. My goal is to build intelligent, articulate athletes who understand the 'how' and 'why' behind their momentum, providing a specialized education that turns the physics of tumbling into a personal source of confidence and strength.

​A core pillar of my system is goal-setting. I work with every student to define specific short-term and long-term goals, creating a roadmap that ensures they aren't just moving—they are achieving. By focusing on the "why" behind every movement, we build athletes who are skilled, smart, and safe.
