Meet Our Gymnastics Leadership Team
Emily Schoelzel (Kramer) – Gymnastics Camp Director This will be my third summer as Gymnastics Camp Director, and I’m especially excited to be back after being on maternity leave last summer. I’ve been part of the JCC family since 2011, when I first started as a part-time coach during summer camp, and it’s been so special to grow within this community over the years. Camp has always been one of my favorite parts of the year, and I’m so excited to spend the summer with your gymnasts, helping them learn, grow, and have an amazing time!
Abby Tarlo – Gymnastics Director Abby has been part of the JCC community for most of her life—starting in preschool and growing through gymnastics and camp! She began as a gymnastics coach, worked full-time after college, and returned in 2019 as the Recreational Director before stepping into her current role as Gymnastics Director. After some time away, Abby is back and excited for another great summer of gymnastics camp!
Sierra Black – Gymnastics Coordinator Sierra is heading into her third year at the J and is a vital part of our gymnastics program. Her passion, energy, and dedication help create a positive and encouraging environment for all of our campers. You’ll see Sierra at camp Monday through Friday, leading activities and supporting campers every step of the way!

“Our daughter absolutely loves JCC gymnastics! The JCC staff is amazing, and her gymnastics classes and summer camps are rigorous and fun. A perfect balance and fit for our family!”
“My daughter was part of last year’s camp and she really loved it. She even cried when it ended and made me promise to take her back in 2022. I think the camp was not only an opportunity to build gymnastics skills, but also an opportunity to build relationships with other girls. They supported each other and worked together, that is so valuable for her future.”
