Spotlight: LGBTQ+ Community within Acrobaticgymnastics with Special Co-Host Legendary Arthur Davis

On this #episode of the Live Like an #Acrobat #Podcast, I am fortunate to have as my special co-host my former #Acrobaticgymnastics partner Two-Time World Champion in Acrobaticgymnastics, #USAGymnastics Hall of Fame Member, #CirqueDuSoleil Alumni, creator of @AcroArmy for #America’sGotTalent, and Internationally award winning acrobatic #choreographer for 25 years #LGBTQ+ legendary figure within Acrobaticgymnastics Arthur Davis. Together we are spotlighting the LGBTQ+ community within acrobaticgymnastics in honor of #PrideMonth, in an #advocative effort to remind the USA Gymnastics #organization and acrobaticgymnastics community that the #Pride of the LGBTQ+ #community should be at the forefront of their #athlete-centric efforts every day. Please join me and my co-host Arthur Davis as we #interview special guests which will include LGBTQ+ ally within the sport Sean Shields, our anonymous guest who is a recently retired athlete and for whom we will share her #stories and reflections, Arthur Valverde who is representing the #POC LGBTQ+ members within the sport, Derrick Chisamore a former LGBTQ+ acro athlete, and Canadian LGBTQ+ former acrobaticgymnast Bobby Knight. #blacktranslivesmatter #blmPlease consider voicing your desire for an amendment to the National and International AcrobaticGymnastics Code of Points and addressing this to the FIG AcrobaticGymnastics Technical Committee and to USA Gymnastics: 1. A new rule clarification that any pair group at any #competitive level does not need to be characteristically male or female in its artistry and skills2. A new rule clarification that states mixed pairs will be allowed to alternate top and base positions at any competitive level. In an effort to be #inclusive to LGBTQIA athletes now and in the future as well as dismantling #gender #stereotypes and #discrimination in our #sport.*Please consider starting a petition on behalf of the LGBTQ+ community on Change.org to facilitate this amendment. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app
