Sam Brown Owner / Team Coach

I am the owner of All-American Gymnastics. I have been involved with Gymnastics for over 25 years. I have been a gymnast, coach, and now a parent of a few little gymnasts. Some of my gymnastics accomplishments include

1989 Junior Olympic National All-Around, Vault, Bars, Beam, Floor Champion
1990 Junior International Beam Champion
1993-1995 USA Senior National Team Member
1996-1999 Member of University of Georgia Gymnastics Team
4-Time All-American
1996-1999 SEC Team Champions
1998 &1999 NCAA National Team Champions
Had the opportunity to compete throughout the USA, and in England, Scotland, Canada, Japan, and Bahamas.

I started my coaching career immediately following my graduation at UGA with a BBA in Risk Management & Insurance. I coached at a local gym shortly, and then decided to open my own facility in Mcdonough, GA called All-American Gymnastics. There I taught a variety of classes as well as team. I had several state champions, regional qualifiers, regional team members, and I had one qualify to the National "B" TOPs Team. I sold the business and our family moved to Savannah, GA. In Savannah, I have coached several state individual champions, regional and national qualifiers. In January 2007, I began teaching preshool and tumbling classes to the children at Savannah Country Day School and am currently still love teaching many of their young students. I decided to open another gym here in Savannah because I love to teach and coach young children. I believe gymnastics is great sport for children of all ages, and really teaches many valuable skills and life lessons. I believe gymnastics has been such a positive experience in my life and has allowed my opportunities that many young people do not get a chance to experience.

Sam recently began judging and is now certified as a Level 5/6 & up to Level 10 for optional levels. She is also an NCAA judge, and we begin judging college in 2012.
