Our Staff
Our Staff
Our staff is made up of passionate coaches, athletes, and mentors who are dedicated to helping every athlete grow both inside and outside of the gym.
Our coaches bring a variety of experiences, backgrounds, and strengths to our team, but we all share the same goal: to create an environment where athletes feel confident, supported, challenged, and proud of what they accomplish.
We believe coaching is about more than teaching skills. It’s about building confidence, teaching discipline, encouraging teamwork, celebrating progress, and helping athletes learn how to overcome challenges. Whether an athlete is stepping onto the mat for the first time or working toward their next big goal, our staff is committed to meeting them where they are and helping them reach their potential.
Our office staff is just as dedicated to our families and the success of our athletes. From answering questions and helping families navigate schedules and registration to keeping the day-to-day operations of the gym running smoothly, our office team works hard behind the scenes to make Top Degree Athletics a welcoming, organized, and enjoyable place for everyone.
We are proud to have a staff that cares deeply about our athletes and their families. We are constantly learning, growing, and working to provide the highest-quality training and experience possible.
At Top Degree Athletics, we don't just coach athletes—we build confidence, character, and champions.
Coach Austen
Owner and Operator
Hey everyone! I'm Coach Austen, the owner of Top Degree Athletics. Cheerleading has been a part of my life since I was a young girl, and I began my coaching journey at just 14 years old in 2010 as a junior coach at a competitive cheer gym in Colorado. I took every opportunity to learn, coaching cheerleading, tumbling, working events and the front desk, and even cleaning the gym on weekends! I worked at that gym for almost 10 years before enlisting into active duty army in 2019. My passion for cheer and tumbling has driven me to create a space where families feel at home, a true "home away from home." As both a dedicated coach and business owner, my mission is to inspire and empower every athlete to reach their full potential.

While I was in college, I had the opportunity to start coaching and I fell in love with the sport all over again. Being able to build the foundation of strength and shaping to tumbling skills is what I find most important in my coaching style.
