In 2021, the ace gymnast Simone Biles withdrew from the Tokyo Olympics, shedding light on mental health challenges in sports. However, after two years of break, she finally returned and stood atop the U.S. Core Hydration Classic and Xfinity Championships podium. But this time, the gymnast had some extra help to cope with the stress.

Simone Biles and the special support

On August 27, Simone made her way to the 8 U.S. all-around titles, shattering the 90-year-old Alfred Jochim’s record of 7 national titles. But with a special dog support therapy.

USA Gymnastics in the wake of mental health struggles

The USA Gymnastics introduced a new pet therapy program to help cope with the stress with 15 pairs of dogs and handlers at the championships. Beacon, the golden retriever, has become the unofficial mascot for USA Gymnastics. What do you think about U.S. gymnastics’ new way of supporting their athletes?
