Sabrina Vega to GAGE

Sabrina’s coaches did a great job. But she’s switched to Fongs, hoping the change will get her back on the A-team.

Sabrina Vega … was a member of the United States national team that won gold at the 2011 World Artistic Gymnastics Championships. …

Vega competed at the 2012 Olympic Trials. She finished 10th in the all-around and was not named to the team. …

How has training been going?

Training’s been going great! I feel like this move is definitely helping and I’m really liking this gym. [The training schedule] is different from my other gym. We go 6 days a week and focus on putting new skills in, technique, and all that. Right now, I’m working with Sarah Finnegan, Maddie Desch, Brenna Dowell, and other Level 9/10 athletes.

Did you miss the last training camp?

I had to go and have shoulder surgery so I’m in rehab now. It was an old injury so I just had to go and repair it. It’s supposed to be a 4 month recovery. We could work out on it but it’s a perfect time to fix it and I won’t have to worry about it in the years to come. This was probably the perfect time to take the time and repair it so when I do get healed up, it’s straightforward from then on. My goal is to heal up but if I’m ready to compete [for Classics and Nationals], then I will.
