Only a few gymnasts in the world are instantly recognizable as Simone Biles, the most decorated American athlete in her sport’s history. With over 40 Olympic and World Championship medals, Simone Biles is dubbed the “GOAT” (Greatest of All Time) for her record-breaking achievements.
Biles is also highly respected outside of sporting circles. Known as being one of the most famous celebrities to talk about her mental health struggles, she is an inspiration and role model for the Youth.
Simone Biles developed a passion for the sport early on. At six, she tried gymnastics for the first time during a field trip at her daycare center. The instructors advised her to continue training, so Biles joined a program with coach Aimee Boorman at Bannon’s Gymnastix in Houston. The rest is history!
