Ashton Locklear knew from a young age that she wanted to be involved in the sport of gymnastics. At age two, she could be found in the audience of her sister's tumbling and trampoline competitions mimicking the movements of the older gymnasts. Her parents realized there was no keeping this ambitious athlete away from her passion and natural talent for gymnastics. Now, this Elite athlete is part of the 2014 World gold medalist team and placed an impressive fourth place on the uneven bars. Locklear hopes to compete in the 2016 Olympics and follow in the footsteps of her idol, Nastia Liukin.
