Testimonials

I have coached competitive soccer at all levels, including Michigan High School State Championship Teams, Premier 1st Division and Elite Division Teams and even collegiate teams for over 25 years. I often notice that there are some girls and boys that just perform head and shoulders above the rest. Nearly always those girls and guys tell me that they have trained in gymnastics. My own daughters and sons have trained at Mills Gymnastics USA and I can not say enough good things about what that has done for their physical development, self-discipline, self-confidence and their ability to avoid season and career ending injuries. All four of my children have gone on to compete in collegiate sports. The development of core training, balance and agility that is mandatory for all competitive athletes is truly an element that is emphasized and developed at Mills Gymnastics USA. I strongly recommend that coaches of ALL other sports encourage their athletes to take gymnastics classes to improve, enhance and maximize their performance.

Fact: At the recent 2009 News Herald Swimming and Diving meet 4 of the top 6 divers had trained at MILLS GYMNASTICS USA.

Gymnastics core training by MILLS USA has increased my players upper, mid and lower body strengths. Improvements I have notice in my players: Flexibility (injury reductions), Balance and Coordination, Focus and Concentration, Agility and Quickness, Mental Preparedness (games, practice and most important – school), Team Building, Natural strength and abilities, Visual Surroundings on and off the game field. “When you are prepared to take on a challenge by practicing and conditioning in anything you do, greater results will follow.”

FACT: Woodhaven High School’s pole vaulting record was set this past season at 14 feet, eclipsing the old record by nearly two feet. The athlete, Rich D. is a gymnast at MILLS USA.

I have been a coach / trainer for volleyball teams for the last 8 years. I have been privileged to coach several levels of volleyball. In my experience the girls that have gone through gymnastics are by far more advanced with their playing ability and talent.
There are certain techniques in volleyball that require diving or as we call it “sprawling” on the floor after playing the ball. The girls that have been through gymnastics are much more confident in hitting the floor because they understand the proper way to land.
Specifically with Mills Gymnastics USA I have coached 8 different girls that at some point been apart of Mills USA. Those 8 girls were some of the most teachable, confident, hardest working players I have coached. Five of those players have gone on to the college level and competed in volleyball. I am positive that their training with Mills has helped advance them to where they are at now.
Thank you Lanny and team for what you do for these kids. The confidence level is outstanding and there is nothing more rewarding as a coach then to see your players excited to participate in that sport. Keep up the excellent work.

My children compete for MILLS GYMNASTICS and absolutely love going there. They have been taking gymnastics here since they were 2 years old … Gymnastics is a great sport that really helps with any sport the child may do in the future…
