Mom. Wife. Coach. 

World-class acrobat turned coach, empowering kids to soar beyond limits.

Christine, born and raised in Quebec City, Canada, discovered her passion for gymnastics at the age of three, eventually competing at high levels by her teens. After graduating high school in 2005, she took her talents to the circus, becoming a Russian bar flyer and spending 15 years performing around the world. Her career reached new heights when she showcased her acrobatic skills on America’s Got Talent, earning national recognition. Inspired by her journey and shaped by global experiences, Christine founded Beyond Tumbling—a nurturing space offering personalized coaching that builds not only physical ability but also confidence and character. Through her work, she’s committed to breaking barriers and empowering young athletes to reach their full potential, both on and off the mat.
