This video was emotionally draining for me to make, but it’s also the most important video I’ve made… because truth be told, I felt like I couldn’t continue to just post on TH-cam as if everything was just “normal” or ok until this video was posted.. I couldn’t just have this gap in the timeline. I’m doing some amazing new things in life, I’ve found new passions and an incredible new community that I can’t wait to share with you all, I’m excited about life and all that it has to offer. This video is my Ultimate Goodbye to my gym, a little glimpse into my heart. Thank you all for your support ❤
This is so sad because I am a gymnast myself and I was hoping to see you one day at one of the competitions because we go to one in Florida. I’m not going to that one because it’s too far away, but I am in Ohio and my coach said that you guys come around here sometimes to meet cause I saw them in the back of one of your videos and I was hoping I’d see you guys😢❤
i’ve cried so much from just watching this. this is so upsetting. all the memories those kids have and you have will forever be cherished. losing a second home is so saddening
crazy for me to realize i met you right when the gym was closing, and even more to realize that was only about a year ago. but i'm glad so much has kept happening since then! and it's been great getting to know you and hang out with everyone together since then! love you rach. i'm glad life has kept moving and kept getting better since!
I'm so sorry Rachel, if u don't mind me asking, why did u close your gym?! I remember when I first watched your channel and loved it straight away. You made me fall in love with gymnastics even more and you got me coaching. I always wanted to train there but I didn't. I love you and all the girls and people who helped u all theses year. You made me want to build my own gym. Love you always, ultimate gymnastics.
I remember growing up watching your videos as a gymnast. Don’t give up! This is what you’re meant to do so I know you will find your way back and find a way to build a gym again. ❤️
I've followed you since your early SGG days and then the launch of your own gym.....my health was not good but God your students always made me laugh at their antics may your next chapter in life bring you as much love and happiness as the part that recently ended 🎄🎄🎅
It'll be ok :) I remember when I just just a little level one watching your videos :( I had so much inspiration, and it just made me fall in love with the sport. Truly, your videos are the reason I even started gymnastics. Now, I am a XCEL Gold...and I have been watching you ever since.
hi Rachel, I grew up watching your videos daily. I remember the excitement I'd get when I'd seen you had posted. I'm very sad, but I wish you the best in your life, and I look forward to your future videos!! ❤
Oh no! I love your channel. It's so awesome seeing your gymnast working hard to learn and develop their skills. They really love you, your coaching, and your gym. I can only imagine how heartbreaking it has been for you. I truly hope you're able to bounce back from this and continue to live out your dreams. Follow your heart. You're a great coach!
This is very sad news for everyone, gymnast, coach and subscribers. The feeling of losing a part of the family in a way, how many hours have I spent watching the evolution of each one. Thanks to you I have learned a lot of terms about this sport that I knew very little about. I suppose that everything has been done or tried to avoid this closure. I remain subscribed to the channel and ultimate too, you never know what can happen, a miracle ?
Rachel. You touched the lives of so many people. Not just the amazing kids you train, but all kinds of people all over the world. You made me smile and laugh since I found you by accident. I dont and never have done gymnastics. However I rooted for all your students and the fun you inject into your coaching is awesome. Its like losing a family. I cried myself to sleep so didnt comment when you first posted. You are beautiful and so talented . At least there is all this love and joy out there because of your posts. Im sure whatever comes next you will excel in . Wet cold damp England fades away when your on screen. Wishing you all the luck and money in the world. Im sure your students will be freinds for life. Thank you for everything. ❤ Hope you post some more excellence in whatever soon. Much love to all. Kez ❤🤠👍🥰❤🌈
I started watching you first on seven gymnastics girls and you were always my favorite Rachel and then on here your a.ways love the sport of gymnastics and I a, excited for the new vids amd the change in your content
i cried while watching this i love you so much rachel and this gym was my second home i love you guys and i pray for more projects like this in the future
Rachel, i am so sorry that this happened. I know that there have been many lives blessed by Ultimate in the time that you were there. I know for myself and based on the comments on this video that my life as well as many others through your channel have been blessed by your hard work and dedication to the sport and the young lives and their families with whom you have been blessed to be a part of. Thank you so much for sharing this part of your life with us. I know that God has big plans for you and you will exceed in anything you intend to do. I look forward to hearing more about whats been going on! Love and appreciate you, Rachel! Stay strong!
I can’t believe that you are closing your gym 😢it’s still shocking 😳 I have been a watcher of your videos for 5 years and have enjoyed and watched them THANK YOU SO MUCH for the memories and great content not saying goodbye but saying see you soon
I found this channel a year ago and I watch it all the time! When I saw this video my jaw dropped. It's so sad that your gym is closing and I wish you luck on whatever you chose to do next.
Wow! I am so, so sorry to hear this. You have always been such an inspiration Rachel and you have brought so much to so many lives. I wish you all the joy and happiness you deserve, both to you and all those wonderful young ladies whose lives you have influenced and improved in so many ways. To see so many of them, both past and present, at your last Friday meet was a mark of the esteem in which they and we hold you! Love you always from the UK!
It's never easy saying goodbye to something you love. I can only imagine how difficult this video was to make. It’s clear how much Ultimate Gymnastics meant to you. we love you
Rachel, All that I just want to say from the bottom of my heart & that is I totally think that you are such an amazing gymnast & not to mention I totally think that you’re such an inspiration to all of the little gymnast because they love & adore you very much because you are such a great mentor to them & I’m very sorry that you had to say goodbye to Ultimate Gymnastics but keep hanging in there Rachel because 2025 is right around the corner & I’m sure that you’ll find your way to build a Gym again because you’ve got your community behind you!
I cried while watching this video your videos inspired me to know what gymnastics is and become a gymnastics coach when I’m older at least an assistant one because I didn’t do gymnastics for a long time but I cried watching this video seeing the impact you made on these girls
I grew up on you video's and remember all the girls by heart, and you're the reason I started gymnastics. If that was gym, I would cry😢😢😢😢 would have loved to be in your gym❤❤❤❤❤❤❤Ps: I almost cried 😢😢😢
hey rachel! i have been watching you through my whole gymnastics carrier, its hard to see you sad and the gymnastics sad, you are what inspired me and i dont wanna see yougo! i almost cried while watching the video i love you so much and idk if u have saw any of my comments before but i love you with all my heart and soul, you will always eb in my heart! you should still try to post an update about how your doing, i wish u werent filming this video, im so sorry rachel..
I’m am sorry to see you go as I have been watching your videos for right back when you were on that other programme but I wish you all the best with your new journey I hope you will make some new videos off your new adventure ❤
Rachel, this was a hard video to watch. I had wondered what happened but figured life just got busy. When I saw the title of this video, I felt like I was punched in the gut. I was never a gymnast but I know how hard it is when a huge part of your life is gone, closed forever. I grew up as a competitive Irish Dancer. My das and nights revolved around my dance school, classes, practice, competitions, performances, my life was eat, sleep, Irish Dancer, repeat. All the injuries, breaking in new hard shoes, keeping my hair in curlers for days, all the Bobby pins shoved into my head, hours of dress fittings. One day, it all came crashing down. No warning, nothing. My school had to abruptly close. I never cried so much in my life. All the days I spent dancing on my toes, I couldn’t find the steps to walk out the door. The scrambling to make sure nothing was left at the studio, everyone trying to find a new school. A dance teacher many never got to say good bye to. The one thing that nobody can ever take away is the memories I have of my teacher, my school, my friends, my teammates. We were a family. We all had to find a way to keep going, many of us ending up in different schools and those whom were once our friends, our teammates, now our competitors. Still a family, just no longer together. Your kids will always be your family, no matter where they end up. I’m glad you got to say goodbye to them. Can’t wait to see where life is leading you. Big hugs and best of luck.
Thank you for sharing your heartfelt story. It’s always tough to say goodbye to a place that holds so many memories. I’m glad we can cherish those moments even as we move forward.
Rachel, this videos were part of my life when I was younger. I started watching when I was about 6 and I am currently 14. Whenever I saw all of the flashbacks I was immediately crying. But when I saw what the girls had done with the sidewalk chalk my eyes were balling. I am crying as I write this and becoming super emotional. One of my favorite videos were the team sleepover ones. I hope that one day you guys will find a new gym or be able to re open. Thank you so much for bringing joy to my day! I love you all!
Going through my hard drive and discovering all the old videos had me sobbing. I’m so thankful that you’ve been a part of our journey. The ultimate family is forever!
Hey Rachel, thank you for sharing 😢 At the beginning of the year you mentioned that the gym had to close. Seeing it now in the video is heartbraking. It is Not just a gym but for many people a second home filled with many beautiful memories. One door has now closed but another will definitely open for you again. That couldn‘t have been the end! You‘re doing such good work! I hope that you can open a new gym quickly and that better times will come back soon 🙏🏻 I wish you and your family a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year 2025 full of new opportunities ❤
Such an inspiration to our youth. Glad to see your channel grow like it has & remember all the amazing memories. I really like whatching you explain your story to your viewers and its sad to whatch this video rn as I'm in tears😭 im gonna miss you all
So very sad. You have touched the lives of thousands, all over the world, you have brought joy and laughter to so many people. I enjoyed watching every one of your videos with my granddaughter, when she started out in gymnastics I searched out a channel to share with her to inspire her growth in the sport - and let me tell you that you certainly inspired her, all the way down here in Australia. My granddaughter wanted to go to the US to see Disneyland and Ultimate Gym and Rachel. We wish you all the best for the future, keep dreaming, keep smiling, keep inspiring!
So sorry to hear your gym closed. I knew you were kind of young but had not idea you were only 18! You've done great things and certainly have a bright future ahead of you! Best wishes to you!
As someone who's been following since 2013 SGG days when I was a competitive gymnast, this was incredibly bittersweet to watch. I'm thankful to have been able to witness your journey as a gymnast, coach, and content creator at Ultimate. But wow am I excited to see what's next for you as well as the other gymnasts. You guys couldn't have been more perfect for each other and I'm glad you got to experience all these beautiful memories all though it wasn't forever. As Taylor Swift once said, the sad news is you're on your own now.. but the cool news is... you're on your own now !
I literally bawled through this whole thing super super sad the gym closed😢 seeing some of the kids from 2017 to now and how they have grown was cool❤❤❤
"I've never been so glad that I filmed so much" I'm so glad you did also Rachel. A few thoughts come to mind as I watch: I'm crying! Whenever I see Mal, I think of that mock job interview you did with her. So funny! I've never seen anyone more comfortable in front of a camera than Adri. Good to see Maggie's energy level hasn't diminished. Nice talk and tumbling pass Lily Ashley. Lennox is so cool. I'm still crying! I hope you're continuing to work with these athletes. Thank you Rachel for bringing us along with you to the Ultimate Gym!
Adry's growth into the confident young woman she is now has been an incredible journey and I'm so incredibly proud of who she is!! Thank you for your kind words, I hope you stick around for the next chapter!
I am so sorry you had to close the gym.😔 You now have a chance to start a new chapter in your life. I wish you success in you future plans whatever they are.😊😊
This is so sad because I am a gymnast myself and I was hoping I’d get to see you one day at one of my competitions cause we go to one in Florida. This is so sad
i heard about the gym closing on instagram because i follow lennox on there. i am so incredibly sad, even though im 13 and started gymnastics late all of your gymnast even if they are younger inspired me SO much, i even convicted my coach from a NO to a maybe for a gym sleepover
I only cried 7 times Because your channel is what got me in to gymnastics when I was 4 it was what I went to to learn new skills it’s the reason I am who I am it was also were I went after I had to quite for 7 years because I never stopped loving gymnastics I was always going to to gymnastics even if it was at my house I’m back at the gym now but when I wasn’t I was outside trying to attempt my bhs but getting drop on your head while trying to do it give you a mental block of going backwards so I still don’t have it but if I can get out of my head I’ll get it I’ll miss the gymnastics videos but when I was 4 it was the best thing to find your videos I would watch your videos in the gym I’m 14 now and I would never thought it would have ended and my 4 yo self would be crying so hard I truly and going to miss the videos I’ve grown up on it thank you for everything Rachel
Many doors are open to you. Not sure why you're shutting down your name is well known ,you do great work with the children. I can't see you being involved in anything less.❤ Inspiration to you ✴️
Rachel I am 10 years old and I started gymnastics because of your channel I was 4 when I fell in love with your channel and I'm sorry for this I cried so much when I watched this video. Kyleigh's video when she was 5 captivated me so much and you have helped me through this gymnastics journey I'm level 5 now. And I will always love Kyleigh,Lennox, Kylie, Scarlet and will pray that God will lead you somewhere else. From Danica Vega.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I love watching these gymnastics videos even though I have nothing to do with them. I also love to see these kids making progress and getting bigger I love you all and good luck with your further gymnastics career maybe you'll soon be seen at the top greetings from Germany sweetis 🥺💕 i miss you guys😭
I feel really sorry for you Rachel, from your gym closing forever. By seeing what's happening to and by seeing you crying to it. It's making cry a little bit and really care for you. I wonder how the girls, that were on the channel SGG (Seven Gymnastic Girls) with or on after you left, are about this.
I'm so sorry what I'm seeing that you're closing your gym. But you're still awesome and so are your students. We'll always see some of recent video.❤😔😥
Eventhough we don't understand how you are feeling right now and goodbyes are never easy but I want to take the time to thank you very much you are one of the main reasons why I started training in Gymnastics again. My thoughts are with you all right now and goodluck in the future.
And no billion dollar network could've made something even half as good. What Rachel did with a vision, some work ethic and a camera is truly remarkable! And keep watching she said she's not done.
I have followed you for years. The influence you have made another people's lives is truly incredible... You will be missed but you leave a legacy that will never be forgotten!!
And plus, you did absolutely amazing helping with your children and other people’s levels. I’m Ali. I’m from Melbourne Australia and I work with Puffing Billy Railway
I honestly cried watching this cause when I went and putted it in my perspective it made me when I thought what if that was my dance studio to close (its not btw) but I can't imagine what how all of those girls felt when they found out
I was wondering why there were no new videos, and now that I know why, it makes me very sad ! 😢 I know that you will miss your friends/students and the relationships you had with them, and hopefully, many will continue on ! 💞 Sometimes change comes when we least expect or want it ,but I know you will make the best of the new circumstances ! My best wishes to you and all the beautiful young faces from all of your videos at the gym ! 🫶
It feels criminal to me how easy it is for the owner of the building to kick you out so easily. No protection for you as a renter, so little time to find an alternative location, so that closing was the only alternative. I hope that most kids found another gym and kept there friends close! And that there talents did not go to waste. Can you please share some video's about what they do now? I understand how hard it has been, and not only to you! I wish all the Ultimate kids, coaches and all suporters all the best! Yours, Wouter from Netherlands.
You couldn’t be more wrong. In the USA, you can actually buy and own property. It’s not like this in many other places in the world. So the option is very simple: you buy your own place if you want to have security of an owner not renewing your lease.
This is so sad because I am a gymnast myself and I was hoping to see you one day at one of the competitions because we go to one in Florida. I’m not going to that one because it’s too far away, but I am in Ohio and my coach said that you guys come around here sometimes to meet cause I saw them in the back of one of your videos and I was hoping I’d see you guys😢❤
I'm sorry Rachel, I Hope you leave your channel up so we can go back and watch your videos! I don't know why I was unsubscribed, except You Tube is good at the stuff! I did subscribe today again, I hope your gymnasts find new gyms to train at. 🙏👍🤗😇😘

Why did it close
This is so sad because I am a gymnast myself and I was hoping to see you one day at one of the competitions because we go to one in Florida.

Your Legacy will live on throughout everyone you encountered ....
Kinda like an infectious Virus 😮
I’m so sorry❤
i’ve cried so much from just watching this. this is so upsetting. all the memories those kids have and you have will forever be cherished. losing a second home is so saddening
I literally remember kylie when she was little and my fav moment of her was when she got her kip! She’s improved so much!
crazy for me to realize i met you right when the gym was closing, and even more to realize that was only about a year ago. but i'm glad so much has kept happening since then! and it's been great getting to know you and hang out with everyone together since then! love you rach. i'm glad life has kept moving and kept getting better since!
It’s crazy to think about how much life has changed in that year but I am so incredibly grateful for you, for our community, for all of it!

All good things always seem to come to an end. You've done it Ultimate in the long run, Rachel ❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉

Oh no! I love your channel. It's so awesome seeing your gymnast working hard to learn and develop their skills. They really love you, your coaching, and your gym. I can only imagine how heartbreaking it has been for you. I truly hope you're able to bounce back from this and continue to live out your dreams. Follow your heart. You're a great coach!
Thank you for the kind words, it means a lot 🙏
This is very sad news for everyone, gymnast, coach and subscribers. The feeling of losing a part of the family in a way, how many hours have I spent watching the evolution of each one. Thanks to you I have learned a lot of terms about this sport that I knew very little about. I suppose that everything has been done or tried to avoid this closure. I remain subscribed to the channel and ultimate too, you never know what can happen, a miracle ?

I dont and never have done gymnastics. However I rooted for all your students and the fun you inject into your coaching is awesome. Its like losing a family. I cried myself to sleep so didnt comment when you first posted.
You are beautiful and so talented . At least there is all this love and joy out there because of your posts.
Im sure whatever comes next you will excel in .
Wet cold damp England fades away when your on screen.
Wishing you all the luck and money in the world. Im sure your students will be freinds for life.
Thank you for everything. ❤
Hope you post some more excellence in whatever soon.
Much love to all.

Rachel I am so sorry that happened I bet I can always remember watching your coach life vids in 2025 😢
Do you have any idea why it closed down?
@ when I saw the video it was so sad cause it was her gym
Hey Rachel, thank you for sharing 😢 At the beginning of the year you mentioned that the gym had to close. Seeing it now in the video is heartbraking. It is Not just a gym but for many people a second home filled with many beautiful memories.
One door has now closed but another will definitely open for you again.

You‘re doing such good work!
I hope that you can open a new gym quickly and that better times will come back soon 🙏🏻
I wish you and your family a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year 2025 full of new opportunities ❤
Look forward to your future projects Rachel.
Best regards to your family and community 💖
Take care, be safe and well 🙏🏻

That video was a throwback to 7 years ago!! I’m actually 25 now.
@ I knew my math wasn’t making sense!
Change is hard, but things always change for the better. Even if we don't see it that way at the start.
As someone who's been following since 2013 SGG days when I was a competitive gymnast, this was incredibly bittersweet to watch. I'm thankful to have been able to witness your journey as a gymnast, coach, and content creator at Ultimate. But wow am I excited to see what's next for you as well as the other gymnasts. You guys couldn't have been more perfect for each other and I'm glad you got to experience all these beautiful memories all though it wasn't forever. As Taylor Swift once said, the sad news is you're on your own now.. but the cool news is... you're on your own now !
You've brought a lot of smiles to my face. Hope to see you smiling again soon.
I literally bawled through this whole thing super super sad the gym closed😢 seeing some of the kids from 2017 to now and how they have grown was cool❤❤❤
God Bless All the HARD work. God is with you. From S.A. Texas
I was so inspired by all the videos that you made with your gymnast and this was a heartfelt message/story
"I've never been so glad that I filmed so much"
I'm so glad you did also Rachel.
A few thoughts come to mind as I watch:
I'm crying!
Whenever I see Mal, I think of that mock job interview you did with her. So funny!
I've never seen anyone more comfortable in front of a camera than Adri.
Good to see Maggie's energy level hasn't diminished.
Nice talk and tumbling pass Lily Ashley.
Lennox is so cool.
I'm still crying!
I hope you're continuing to work with these athletes.
Thank you Rachel for bringing us along with you to the Ultimate Gym!
Adry's growth into the confident young woman she is now has been an incredible journey and I'm so incredibly proud of who she is!!
Thank you for your kind words, I hope you stick around for the next chapter!
@@RachelMarieGymnastics Oh yeah! You hooked me 5 years ago and I'm not letting go!
I am so sorry you had to close the gym.😔 You now have a chance to start a new chapter in your life. I wish you success in you future plans whatever they are.😊😊

i heard about the gym closing on instagram because i follow lennox on there. i am so incredibly sad, even though im 13 and started gymnastics late all of your gymnast even if they are younger inspired me SO much, i even convicted my coach from a NO to a maybe for a gym sleepover
I'm sorry, but you will open new doors and you are a great person, that's why you will be successful 🤩
Thank you! 😃
I only cried 7 times Because your channel is what got me in to gymnastics when I was 4 it was what I went to to learn new skills it’s the reason I am who I am it was also were I went after I had to quite for 7 years because I never stopped loving gymnastics I was always going to to gymnastics even if it was at my house I’m back at the gym now but when I wasn’t I was outside trying to attempt my bhs but getting drop on your head while trying to do it give you a mental block of going backwards so I still don’t have it but if I can get out of my head I’ll get it I’ll miss the gymnastics videos but when I was 4 it was the best thing to find your videos I would watch your videos in the gym I’m 14 now and I would never thought it would have ended and my 4 yo self would be crying so hard I truly and going to miss the videos I’ve grown up on it thank you for everything Rachel

Many doors are open to you. Not sure why you're shutting down your name is well known ,you do great work with the children. I can't see you being involved in anything less.❤ Inspiration to you ✴️
Rachel I am 10 years old and I started gymnastics because of your channel I was 4 when I fell in love with your channel and I'm sorry for this I cried so much when I watched this video. Kyleigh's video when she was 5 captivated me so much and you have helped me through this gymnastics journey I'm level 5 now. And I will always love Kyleigh,Lennox, Kylie, Scarlet and will pray that God will lead you somewhere else. From Danica Vega.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

I also love to see these kids making progress and getting bigger I love you all and good luck with your further gymnastics career maybe you'll soon be seen at the top greetings from Germany sweetis 🥺💕 i miss you guys😭
So sad, Had me in tears.
😭 I love watching your vlogs my favorite sport is gymnastics , I hop
Your about to own your own gym and be able ultimate gymnastics again to vlog
I’m hoping to find a way to do it again soon. You never know!
I know it must’ve been hard, but there’s always the memories you guys have
When I first watched your vids I was like I do gymnastics to then I told mom I wanna go here because they are learning so much skills at a young age .
I'm crying, so much energy and Love.
I love watching these videos n these kids doing what they love may I ask y u r closing down sending lots of love ❤
I feel really sorry for you Rachel, from your gym closing forever. By seeing what's happening to and by seeing you crying to it. It's making cry a little bit and really care for you. I wonder how the girls, that were on the channel SGG (Seven Gymnastic Girls) with or on after you left, are about this.
I loved your videos and they are the best and you are the best. I will miss you. From Nour. 6 years old.❤😢❤😢❤😢😢
I'm so sorry what I'm seeing that you're closing your gym. But you're still awesome and so are your students. We'll always see some of recent video.❤😔😥
So sad.
I couldn’t help and cried.
Eventhough we don't understand how you are feeling right now and goodbyes are never easy but I want to take the time to thank you very much you are one of the main reasons why I started training in Gymnastics again. My thoughts are with you all right now and goodluck in the future.
Feels like ive lost a family .... its just like when Gymscool ended.... sad times.... ill miss you all so much
You had an Awesome channel no network would have given you the time of day that Tube did 💪
And no billion dollar network could've made something even half as good. What Rachel did with a vision, some work ethic and a camera is truly remarkable!
And keep watching she said she's not done.
I have followed you for years. The influence you have made another people's lives is truly incredible... You will be missed but you leave a legacy that will never be forgotten!!
Thank you for the kind words, it means so much 🙏
I’m So Sorry for this you’ve been doing an awesome job
Are you just moving? The Gym
Are you just moving The Gym
Hey hoping to get a new job to work at the gym also will your channel will be still there forever?
Did someone said to you you guys want to close down or did you decide to?
And plus, you did absolutely amazing helping with your children and other people’s levels. I’m Ali. I’m from Melbourne Australia and I work with Puffing Billy Railway
I honestly cried watching this cause when I went and putted it in my perspective it made me when I thought what if that was my dance studio to close (its not btw) but I can't imagine what how all of those girls felt when they found out
I miss you Rachel😢
Aww I am going to miss the gymnastic videos
I was wondering why there were no new videos, and now that I know why, it makes me very sad ! 😢 I know that you will miss your friends/students and the relationships you had with them, and hopefully, many will continue on ! 💞 Sometimes change comes when we least expect or want it ,but I know you will make the best of the new circumstances ! My best wishes to you and all the beautiful young faces from all of your videos at the gym ! 🫶
Thank you so much for the kind words. 💕 it’s been tough but I’m working on some new projects that will be hopefully just as beautiful 💕
Omg I’m so sad😭
@Daphne-z5n yeah I was sad too I was feeling bad for her she taught her gymnasts great skills
@ Ik she was an amazing coach😢
@Daphne-z5n yeah she was but I can always re watch her videos
She was my fav coach and this is my fav gymnastics channel at Keats we have the vlogs and Rachel amd all the girls will always have the memories
It feels criminal to me how easy it is for the owner of the building to kick you out so easily. No protection for you as a renter, so little time to find an alternative location, so that closing was the only alternative. I hope that most kids found another gym and kept there friends close! And that there talents did not go to waste.
Can you please share some video's about what they do now?
I understand how hard it has been, and not only to you!
I wish all the Ultimate kids, coaches and all suporters all the best!
Yours, Wouter from Netherlands.
You couldn’t be more wrong. In the USA, you can actually buy and own property. It’s not like this in many other places in the world.
So the option is very simple: you buy your own place if you want to have security of an owner not renewing your lease.
I still miss that gymnastics when I was there when I was 6❤❤❤😢😢😔😔😔
❤
Why did the gym close? I'm sorry that you had to go through that, but hopefully, something good will happen in the end.
Hi Rachel. What is the actual reason for it closing?
I am soo sorry you are soo inspiring to me
Your gym is closed forever, this is indeed the hardest video!!
I'm really gonna miss that place 😔
We all do 🥺
I am going to watch you in 2025 because I love you so much Rachel 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
God will have a plan for you ❤
❤️❤️❤️😢 love you
Why is it closing?
Landlord decided to sell the building.
I always wanted to join this gym
Goodbyes never
good.
Why did it close
This is so sad because I am a gymnast myself and I was hoping to see you one day at one of the competitions because we go to one in Florida. I’m not going to that one because it’s too far away, but I am in Ohio and my coach said that you guys come around here sometimes to meet cause I saw them in the back of one of your videos and I was hoping I’d see you guys😢❤
Wait what happened why did they close down
You didn't mention why it closed. Is that a secret?
I'm sorry Rachel, I Hope you leave your channel up so we can go back and watch your videos! I don't know why I was unsubscribed, except You Tube is good at the stuff! I did subscribe today again, I hope your gymnasts find new gyms to train at. 🙏👍🤗😇😘
I’ll be continuing to post on TH-cam!! There’s just going to be a bit of a content shift. I hope you love the new content that will be coming out 💕🥰
why did it close?
Landlord sold the building and gave 30-day notice. I really hope Rachel can own the land her gym is on one day.
She didn’t own It and the owner wanted to do something different with the building.
Why do you shut down your gymnastics gym I enjoyed watching your gymnastics challenges
I’m so confused. Why did the gym close? I’m so sad
Will you still be posting?😢
