About our Coaches

Rhonda and Steve Miller have been teaching gymnastics at the Bucyrus YMCA since 1983.  In 1986, they took over the head coaching position when the former coach relocated.  Beside teaching the progressive classes at the Y, the Millers also coach the Bucyrus YMCA Aerials Gymnastic Team.  They have had an average of 25 gymnasts on the team each year.  The team competes at the District, State and National level.  While other Y’s continually lose their programs, Bucyrus has managed to keep the program going strong.

Their training in gymnastics has included attending numerous camps and clinics throughout the years.  They have trained under several National level college coaches such as Ohio State, Nebraska, Penn State, Rhode Island, and South Carolina, just to name a few. Their continuing education also includes clinics, videos, and periodicals pertaining to the sport.

Rhonda serves as President of the Northwest Ohio Coaches Association, a position she has held position since 1995.  She is also a commissioner for the State of Ohio, representing the Northwest Ohio District for the YMCA of the USA ; this position she has held since 1994.  Rhonda is also employed by the Delaware City Schools as an educational aide for a multi-handicapped classroom.

Steve is also employed at the Timken Bearing plant in Bucyrus, where he has worked  for the past 33 yrs.  He and Rhonda have two grown children, and two grandchildren.  Besides gymnastics, they are also avid golfers.
