Destira Star, Claire Stutzman, is a 7-year-old who dreams of becoming a fashion designer! Claire is currently a level 3 gymnast from Connecticut who loves all things creative. She has already started working hard to achieve her goals by learning to sew, designing on paper, and translating it into real life for herself and her dolls.

We sat down with Destira Star, Khloe Battle, and talked about her dreams for herself and what makes her limitless. Khloe is an 11-year-old gymnast from Texas. She has big dreams to become a veterinarian!

2023 is a big year for Destira. We are celebrating 20 years of making your gymnasts' favorite gymnastics apparel - and we are bringing you along for the journey! 

Why limitless? The word quite literally means without end/boundless. At Destira, we consider not only ourselves, but our entire community limitless. Starting with Donna, Destira has been built from the ground up to where we are today. Adding in her daughters, Jodi and Jen, Destira is now a well-known brand worn by gymnasts across the world.

Gymnastics is a fun sport filled with jumps, flips, and tricks on different apparatuses. If you enroll your toddler into a gymnastics class, you may find that they might not be completely invested in the sport, which is normal. As a parent, you can encourage and motivate your child to keep trying their best in class, as gymnastics is a wonderful sport for building self-confidence as well as common skills used in their lives like listening and patience. Here are some tips to keep your child interested in gymnastics classes.

Choosing the correct garments for gymnastics can seem like a daunting task - but that’s why we are here! The most important thing is that your gymnast is comfortable and able to move. Here is a few do’s and don’ts that gym parents can follow to make sure their child is set for class. 

Gymnastics is a sport for all ages. Some gymnasts start when they are young and in a Mommy & Me class while others start with developmental classes closer to the pre-teen years. While it does not particularly matter what age a child starts gymnastics, there are many benefits gymnastics has on young children. 

Gymnastics - a sport that can be tough on your athlete no matter what age. With skills that include flipping in the air, swinging around the bar, balancing on a beam, and so much more, as a parent you may be concerned about the safety of your gymnast. Here are a few tips to ensure your gymnast is being safe during each practice, workout, and competition. 

We are at one of our favorite times of year - Mother’s Day! Destira is a company founded on the belief that no matter what - family comes first. This Mother’s Day, we talked to all of the Destira Team about their moms, what it is like to be a mom, and their hopes and dreams for their moms and children. 

As parents of gymnasts, you know that competitive gymnastics can cost more money than you may have originally thought. Many gyms have booster clubs that focus on fundraising money for their competitive gymnasts year round. Here are some unique opportunities that your gym’s booster club can consider when looking to fundraise. 

Buying the right apparel for your gymnast can be tricky. The biggest key is to make sure your gymnast is comfortable; gymnastics unitards are great for this. At Destira, we offer both a traditional leotard as well as girls unitards.

If you are one of our Wholesale or Consignment clients, you are more than likely talking to Braylee or Emi each time you connect with us. These ladies work hard every day to ensure that your Destira experience is one-of-a-kind!

Destira is partnering with Girls Leadership, a non-profit organization that teaches young girls the power of their voice through social emotional learning, in an effort to continue providing instruction for gym owners, gymnastic coaches, and parents to help teach their gymnasts how to feel confident expressing themselves - in and out of the gym. We asked our Destira Stars a few questions about leadership, how to lead, and what it means to be a leader. See what they have to say!
