Tiffany Stone is a mom of 4, who retired from gymnastics long ago and fell in love with cheer! I still tumble and love teaching athletes of all ages and abilities through personalized training! I attended college, studying Exercise Science and Sport Psychology before making the 1997-1998 Atlanta Falcons Cheerleading squad, which ended my studies early due to the time commitment involved. I quickly fell into coaching, choreography and fitness training which fueled the passion I have for teaching tumbling and cheer!
One thing I always teach my athletes is to keep growing! I love the motto: forward motion always which I adopted from my former boxing coach. I lead by example and I am constantly finding ways to better myself and my skill set. I held the USAG State Chair position for Power Tumbling and Trampoline for 8 years, as well as being a certified judge for the sport. I currently hold certification as a Physical Therapy Technician, Fitness and Nutrition consultant, BLS, CPR and First Aid instructor, USASF certified safety and deductions judge, and I am a USASF member coach in good standing since joining in 2004.
I opened a tumbling training center at 24 years old and loved serving the athletes in my community for 20 years with athletics focused on cheerleading, tumbling, acro and stunt, competitive trampoline, ninja classes, clinics, choreography, and more! I franchised FlipSide Nutrition two years ago to help athletes and families on the go, meet their nutritional needs with teas that boost energy and offer vitamins and minerals the body needs to stay in top health.
Currently, I work full time for Georgia Power Company and lay Coach for Winder Barrow High School. I am excited to be able to continue coaching closer to home and look forward to promoting positive experiences for youth athletes!
My favorite skill: the handstand! One of the most important tumbling foundations, you’ll often find me upside-down somewhere!
