With 20 consecutive victories under her belt

Simone Biles has already made a name for herself for continuously pushing her own limits and raising the level of competition in gymnastics. Continuing on her streak, Biles further made history by winning her sixth national title. She is the second woman to reach that level of dominance and the first in nearly 70 years. This win puts her at 20 consecutive victories in the all-around.

Starting out on the balance beam, Biles became the first gymnast to land a double-twisting double somersault, and during a flor exercise, she became the first woman to land a triple twisting-double somersault.

Now, Biles is teaching her first MasterClass, an online education program on a variety of topics with classes also taught by Steph Curry and Serena Williams. There are more than 60 MasterClass courses available and subscribers can access the content with an All-Access Pass for $180 per year. Categories that can be accessed through the All-Access Pass include business, culinary arts, film & television, music & entertainment, photography, sports and more.

David Rogier, co-founder and CEO of MasterClass, said that Simone Biles “[N]ot only teaches gymnastics fundamentals and her techniques, she speaks about how she (and you) can overcome fear to become truly great.”
