Head Team Coach
Karinne began her gymnastics journey in Wisconsin at a young age and went on to compete as a Division III gymnast at UW–La Crosse. Throughout her athletic career, she developed not only a deep appreciation for the sport but also a passion for coaching and mentoring young athletes. What started as a love for gymnastics evolved into a fulfilling career dedicated to helping gymnasts grow both inside and outside the gym.
With more than 15 years of coaching experience, Karinne has worked with athletes of all ages and skill levels, from beginners learning foundational movements to competitive gymnasts pursuing ambitious goals. She is passionate about creating a positive, supportive environment where athletes can build confidence, develop resilience, and discover what they are capable of achieving.
In addition to coaching gymnastics, Karinne works at East Yard CrossFit, where she continues to help individuals pursue their fitness goals and embrace healthy, active lifestyles. Her passion for movement and personal growth extends across all ages and abilities.
Outside of the gym, Karinne enjoys exploring hiking trails, seeking out new swimming holes, and adventuring with her dog, Mowgli.
