Meet Tony Valdez!
Welcome to my dream, Bensalem School of Gymnastics! I am Tony Valdez, the proud owner. My love for gymnastics began in Kindergarten. I was introduced to this amazing sport at Herbert Hoover Elementary School. After that gym class I was chosen to be in the show and got to showcase my skills in vault and tumbling. My love for the sport grew and I continued in gymnastics through my school years, perfecting my talent. In high school, I started placing and took 1st place in the All-Around for the Lower Bucks County meets.
I worked hard after high school, saving to achieve the first of my goals and open my own gymnastics school. Helping boys and girls achieve their dreams in gymnastics has made my dreams a reality.
Bensalem School of Gymnastics was open in 1990 and has been successfully competing in USAG gymnastics sanctioned events for over 30 years.
Meet Josh Merz!
Hi! I’m Coach Josh. I have been coaching for Bensalem Gymnastics since 2008. Fun fact, Tony and my father did gymnastics together at Neshaminy High School! I am up to date with USAG gymnastics certifications/safety courses/background checks and more. I attended Bensalem Gymnastics when I was younger. I believe most athletes will be surprised with what they can achieve with hard work and dedication.
I am drawn to nature/wildlife. I have volunteered at nature centers in the past. I enjoy going on camping and kayaking trips. On my kayak I did 70 miles down the Juniata River. I have also done long trips in the everglades, Minnesota, and Canada.
Meet Alex Smith!
Hi! I’m coach Alex. I have been coaching gymnastics for 11 years at Bensalem Gymnastics. I have all of my up to date USAG gymnastics certifications/safety courses/background checks and more. I love working with children of all ages/abilities. I was also on the competition team for Bensalem Gymnastics in my younger years! My favorite event was the uneven bars. My heart and soul has always been in this amazing sport. It has taught me so many things such as strength, self confidence, discipline, and determination. I will forever cherish the everlasting memories gymnastics has given me.
A few things about me……… I love the outdoors! Fishing, camping, kayaking, pretty much anything you can think of doing outside. One of my favorite hobbies is painting/drawing. Anyone who knows me knows that I love to jam out to Rihanna and break out some dance moves. Animals are my absolute life!! I love to stay physically active and enjoy doing sports/weightlifting. I’m OBSESSED with doing handstands, I literally do them everywhere.
