About Dee Dee

Hi, my name is Dee Dee Foster. I was a gymnast for 17 years. I competed as both an Elite and an NCAA gymnast.

Gymnastics has been such a big part of my life, and because of that I wanted to pass some of the great life-lessons I learned as a gymnast on to YOU. So, I decided to create a mentoring service and write a series of books just for gymnasts. And the best part is, DearDeeDee.com is for every gymnast at every level!

- XOXO, Dee Dee
