How did you determine the name of your business? We chose GymJam because it combines "gymnastics" and "fun" which is what we strive to provide - quality instruction in a fun and positive environment.

What's the coolest aspect of your business? The coolest part is that our whole family is in it together. We are so involved in what our kids are doing, and they are involved in our work. We know their friends and their friends' parents.

What is the most amazing thing about what you offer? Every day we get to inspire kids to become the best they can be. We know we're making a difference in so many people's lives. And the kids themselves are inspiring other kids in the gym.

What does the future hold for your company? We want to keep providing a challenging and rewarding program for as many children as possible. The goal is to keep them in the sport through high school and send as many onto collegiate athletic teams as possible. We have already sent four to universities (three to UCLA and one to University of WA - two with full-ride athletic scholarships and two with walk-on positions).

What is unique about your business? I think what is unique about our business is that because it is a place where families congregate, it is like a big extended family. For many of the parents, it is their social network. Most of the time it doesn't feel like work; it's just what we do and who we are.

What's one thing that someone out of the loop would never guess? For some reason, people are often intimidated by Chris when they first meet him. But the kids who he coaches know he's crazy and a bit of a goofball. He tries all kinds of ways to help motivate the kids even if he looks ridiculous. The parents just watch and laugh, and probably think, "What is he doing now?"
