former Chow’s Gymnastics coach arrested

… young coach moved from Mississippi to Iowa to take a job in 2018 at an elite academy known for training Olympic champions.

Liang “Chow” Qiao, the owner of Chow’s Gymnastics and Dance Institute in West Des Moines, thought highly enough of his new hire, Sean Gardner, to put him in charge of the club’s premier junior event and to coach some of its most promising girls. …

Last week, more than three years after being suspended from coaching, the FBI arrested Gardner, 38, on a federal child sexual abuse images charge. But his disciplinary case has still not been resolved by SafeSport, which handles sex-abuse cases in Olympic sports.
