Morgan Kuchynka
FOUNDER
Morgan is the founder of Pinnacle Gymnastics, Dance, and Ninja. After retiring from 9 years of competitive gymnastics and reaching her peak at level 10, Morgan began coaching in 2000 and immediately knew it was her true passion. After graduation from the University of Kansas in 2005 with a business degree, Morgan opened Pinnacle Gymnastics and began operating in a 6,000 square foot facility in Western Shawnee. The growth of the program has led Pinnacle to its current operation of two facilities: Shawnee and Kansas City.
With a deep passion for empowering children through physical activity, Morgan established Pinnacle to foster an environment where young athletes can grow, excel, and build confidence. Her dedication to the development of both gymnastics and dance programs has helped shape a positive, inclusive community where individuals of all skill levels can achieve their full potential. Under Morgan’s leadership, Pinnacle Gymnastics and Pinnacle Dance and Gymnastics have become cornerstones of the Kansas City area, offering a supportive and dynamic space for children to learn, grow, and succeed.
Morgan is a USA Gymnastics Professional Member and the Chairman of the USA Gymnastics Kansas State Administrative Committee.
Together with Hannah Thomas, Morgan has helped multiple athletes earn spots on collegiate gymnastics teams.
