In this episode of The MotUS Edge Podcast, hosts Stacy Rowe, Casey Jones, and Kevin Brubaker sit down with Orson Sykes, the visionary founder of Twist and Shout. Orson shares his journey from NCAA gymnastics champion to one of the most respected leaders in All Star cheer. He opens up about starting his gym, the challenges of hiring and retention, building strong athlete foundations, and navigating parent expectations. The conversation dives into when to push or pull back on skill progression, the future of All Star cheer, and the business lessons that have shaped his success over nearly three decades. Packed with wisdom, laughs, and a few dad jokes, this is a must-listen for gym owners, coaches, and cheer enthusiasts.
