Erika Briscoe on a Remarkable Comeback & Chasing Her Elite Dream

Erika Briscoe's gymnastics journey is far from conventional. She began the sport at Iowa Gym-Nest when she was young, but when she reached level 7, she opted to try other activities. Briscoe was away from gymnastics for five years before owner and coach Paige Roth encouraged her to return to the sport she loved.

After an incredible comeback, an injury, and a year of college gymnastics, a casual joke with her coach turned into a reality, and now Erika is 100% devoted to pursuing her dream of competing elite gymnastics.
