Beth has been flipping all of her life! She also danced and acted in her early days until she landed a spot on the first gymnastics team in Winston-Salem. Her love of the sport inspired her parents to open Salem Gymnastics Center in 1980 where she continued to teach and compete in gymnastics. This led her to a full gymnastics scholarship at Illinois State University.

Fate dealt an interesting blow during the fall semester of her freshman year. Beth suffered a torn ACL after a fall on the uneven bars - unfortunately, the injury required reconstructive knee surgery. She spent the next four months in a full leg cast, six months on crutches and two years in rehab. She learned many things during this time, including both patience and a giant swing on bars, in which she was the first ISU gymnast to compete.

After college, Beth came back home and along with her parents and husband, began running the family business. She has been a long-time NC-USAG Board Member and a speaker at both USAG State and Regional Congresses, SwimConsultant seminars and was an integral part of USAIGC Nationals from 1989-2001.

Additionally, she is the Founder GymStart, serves in lay leadership at St. Timothy’s Episcopal Church and loves to travel and listen to Jackson Browne. Beth is married to Kenny Morphis and has two awesome children, Jon and Alex. She loves working at Salem with her husband, father and son and feels very fortunate to have a job she looks forward to going to every day. Her hope is that the lives she touches will take the lessons learned and continue on to greatness wherever they go.
