For Parents
Everything you need to know about TILT Independent and how it helps your teen grow into a confident leader.
Why This Matters
Gymnastics already teaches discipline and grit. TILT takes it one step further—helping your athlete learn how to:
- 1Speak up with confidence (without being "bossy")
- 2Handle feedback and pressure
- 3Lead teammates and younger athletes in a healthy way
- 4Communicate clearly with coaches, peers, and adults
- 5Build habits that transfer to school, jobs, and life
This is leadership training disguised as "gymnastics stuff." (And yes… it works.)

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this interfere with training?

Not at all. TILT Independent is built for life skills first. Coaching/judging are tools we use to teach leadership.
