Staff
Marla Bradley,
Owner, Business
Manager,
Gymnastics
Instructor
Marla is business manager and oversees all locations
and staff at Inclusion Athletics (Inclusion Dance,
Gymnastics, Ninja Warrior Parkour, and Inclusion
Fitness). Marla also owns North Country Website Design.
Marla coached the Forest Park High School and Middle
School Dance Teams for 8 years. During that time, the
Dance Teams went to many competitions and won many
awards. Marla has always tried to focus on students’
abilities and the way each dancer fits into the team as a
whole. Each student’s special ability is emphasized to
show that every person has different strengths. Marla
believes it is very important that a team should work
together to help one another strive to make each other
better, not only as an athlete, but as a person. Being on a
team teaches children to work hard, be punctual, work
well with others, and to support their teammates.
These are the characteristics that will be found at
Inclusion Athletics. Marla wants to see everyone
included! Fairness isn’t giving everyone the same thing.
Fairness is giving everyone what they need to
succeed. Not everyone will be treated the same
because not everyone is the same. Treating everyone
fairly and including them is important at Inclusion
Dance.
2023-2024 is Marla’s seventh season owning and
managing Inclusion Dance.
