Let me start with my recent story: when the same day flight was delayed for almost 4 hours, our National competition trip became an adventure. Miss Liliya stayed calm to make my daughter and me feel less stressed, gathererd her wits end to save all the possible time, and managed to make there on time with still great results! It was a very impressive, unforgettable and worthwhile competition with Miss Liliya.
Yes, My 10-year-old daughter has great experience at Freedom with coach Miss Liliya.

I know she loves watching the ābig girlsā with their advanced moves. And the older girls are sweet to the...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreI had the incredible opportunity to teach at Freedom Academy's Summer Camp in 2022. From the moment I arrived, I was welcomed into a warm and inviting atmosphere that made me feel right at home. Lily, the Academy owner, treated me like family and included me in the coaches' circle, which was truly special. I absolutely loved working with the studentsātheir dedication and commitment to learning and improving every day made coaching a joy. The facilities are top-notch, and the coaches are all deeply passionate about their work. Itās an experience I will cherish forever, and I hope one day to return and enroll my own daughters at Freedom Academy.

The learning experience was truly inspiring, and Iām eager to share the knowledge I gained with my own gymnasts. Love...
