Grace Logan

Women’s Artistic Coach

Grace has taken part in gymnastics for many years in both a squad and recreational capacity. She has a natural ability with the gymnasts and whilst working in our recreational classes she showed a real flair with our Women’s Artistic squad so was offered the opportunity to work with them during their Thursday sessions. She also managed to squeeze in her WA coaching course before leaving us to complete her degree at university. Grace lives locally and so so will always be part of the club and we look forward to seeing her at Club Competitions in her role as a qualified judge and in Summer courses and occasional sessions.

Richard Carter

GG Coach

Rich really enjoys teaching all ages of children at Allegro, but has taken a particular enjoyment to teaching our tumbling groups. An ex gymnast himself, who represented Great Britain at the Eurogym Festival in Germany, he brings a natural leadership and ability to Allegro, constantly thinking up ways to help gymnasts achieve having huge technical knowledge of all of the skills the children are learning. Rich competed in Men’s Artistic gymnastics from a young age where he reached the National finals and represented London. He then transferred into Sports Acro and went onto be part of a ‘Men’s Four’. Having achieved that fantastic title he retired from competing to concentrate on his family, and his son is now also part of our club. Rich, a fully qualified coach loves to teach the girls and boys some cool tumbles and tricks and the children adore him.

Charlotte is one of our main Recreational coaches having just completed her coaching qualification. She has the gentlest nature and has a natural, kind and calm way with our gymnasts which is why she is loved so much. Charlotte started with us as a gymnast and has matured into the loveliest most responsible young lady and we feel really privileged to have her in our classes as a coach. She is studying for her A levels this year but will continue to teach in her regular classes and support us in our termly events.

Niamh Tsang

Niamh has been a fantastic gymnast since she was tiny and competed nationally as a tumbler. She is now an amazing cheerleader and is looking forward to not only taking over our tumbling squad but bringing some cheerleading moves and tricks to the gymnasts. Her lovely gentle nature brings that something special to the classes and she has very quickly become one of the children’s favourite coaches. Niamh is also hoping to be able to come and teach in some of our new Pre school classes too, and we know she will be a huge asset.
