Chandler is on the invite list for the United States National Development Team and is already making significant progress towards the USA Olympic squad. “My main goal in gymnastics in the future is to go to the Olympics and make gold all round”, says Chandler.

Chandler started gymnastics when she was just three-years-old and she continued with this passion ever since. Chandler’s parents, Latoika and Rajaul King, have supported their daughter’s every move and have high hopes for her future.

When people watch Chandler perform they are so impressed, but she does it with ease. She says that her favorite thing about gymnastics is that she gets to meet new people, and show her new skills, and perform in front of people.

Chandler will definitely become a star in the sport because she has a lot of potential. She wants to be the next Olympian, she just needs to trust the process and keep moving forward.
