In terms of influential personalities in gymnastics, Simone Biles comfortably tops the list. During a time when mental health issues are considered taboo, Biles has been a brilliant advocate in breaking the stereotype. Her withdrawal from the Team Artistic Gymnastics competitions at the Tokyo Olympics sent a motivating message to many people. Moreover, she returned and won two more medals in Tokyo. Now, the famous gymnast is going on a Gold Over America Tour to display their talents to people.

Simone Biles speaks about the tour

Athleta’s Gold Over America Tour concentrates on the celebration of influential female athletes who showcase their talents to inspire new generations. The tour starts from September and will continue through November. Biles spoke about the differences between competing in a major tournament and this tour.

“A gymnastics competition is a little bit more intense, more serious, but the gold over America tour is going to be lots of fun, it’s more of a show, there will be with a huge dance party on the floor. I think that’s really exciting for both the audience and us, to interact with them,” said Biles.

Professional events and meets are extremely competitive and the athletes are extremely focused. However, things are different in the Tour. Many youngsters aspire to become gymnasts as these athletes provide a platform to give them a never seen before experience. A fantastic initiative from Athleta.
