Nasser Parvinrouh was an Olympic gymnast and competed for Iran in the 1964 Olympics in Japan. At one time, Mr. Nasser was ranked 16th in the world!

Mr. Nasser established Nasser Gymnastics Academy in August 1970. Mr. Nasser taught Physical Education, Recreation, and Dance at Faulkner State Community College, opened a couple of satellite gyms in Baldwin County and Northern Mobile, and then opened his first gym in Mobile in 1982. He built the gym that we’re in now in 2000. 

Nasser loves gymnastics and introduced the local community to the great sport. At 81 years old, Mr. Nasser remains young at heart and loves working with our pre-school classes. He also helps to define curriculum and train coaches. We are proud to continue following his teaching methods and traditions today. 

Michelle grew up in the gym with her family. She competed to level 5 before becoming a cheerleader at Murphy High School and competing as a part of the first Nasser All-star Cheerleading Squad. She’s coached tumbling, cheer, and all levels of gymnastics fundamentals starting with 18 month olds in mom & me classes all the way through preschool, school-age, teenage, and even adult classes. She’s also coached competitive team levels 1-6 over her 20+ year tenure. She loves coaching compulsory-level competitive gymnastics.
