Meet the Founders

Waves was founded (and is run) by a family with gymnastics in their blood. Owners Tod & Angie met while coaching at a gym in Corpus Christi. They went on to open Tags World Gymnastics in South Texas, where their daughter Abby (our Director) honed her skills. Together, they shared their love for the sport with their community.
