Coach Bryce Kirkley is a U.S. Marine veteran with 20+ years of tumbling and coaching experience, offering focused 30-minute sessions designed to help athletes build skills, confidence, and mental toughness.
Bryce specializes in strong fundamentals and helping athletes break through mental blocks that may be holding them back.
What Coach Bryce Works On:
- Mental blocks & confidence
- Forward & backward tumbling at all levels
- Jumps, flexibility, strength & technique
- Cheer, gymnastics & dance athletes
Sessions are kept small—1–3 athletes—to provide focused coaching and maximum progress.
After serving 9 years on active duty in the U.S. Marine Corps, including a deployment to Afghanistan, Bryce returned home carrying PTSD after experiencing the realities of war and losing a close friend in battle.
That experience became part of the reason he is so passionate about helping young athletes. Bryce understands what it feels like when fear and anxiety tell you that you can't move forward. He uses the resilience, discipline, patience, and mental strength he developed through his own experiences to connect with athletes struggling with fear and mental blocks in tumbling.
For Bryce, coaching is about more than landing a skill. It's about helping athletes trust themselves again, work through fear, and discover what they're capable of.
This isn't a hobby. It's his passion—and his purpose.
