Coach Bio

David Rivera

Owner | Executive Director

David discovered his passion for coaching in 2006 at a boutique gym in Yonkers, NY, where he quickly realized the transformative power of sport. To him, gymnastics — with its unique blend of self-discipline, determination, and artistry — is one of the most effective platforms for shaping young minds into confident, resilient leaders. He believes deeply in the impact of positive coaching. This philosophy serves as the cornerstone of his approach, guiding athletes not only toward technical excellence but toward personal growth, character development, and long-term success beyond the gym walls. Throughout his career, David has proudly coached athletes to the US Classic and American Classic, helping them reach the highest levels of Junior Olympic and elite competition. His student-athletes have gone on to compete at multiple Division I colleges.
