Power Tumbler Melissa Doucette

Sarah Chrane posted a terrific profile on an inspiring athlete.

Melissa Doucette, a former NCAA standout from the University of Bridgeport, who, at the age of 24, decided to continue to train and compete as a level 10 with the hope of qualifying as an elite.

Melissa is now almost 26 and finished her elite journey last year. But because this sport makes it impossible to leave it behind forever, she’s moving forward in other ways, and has decided on her next adventure: power tumbling.
