Hi Cheer family,
Many of you know me as Mehgans’ mom however I am also the mom too Madison and two other older children Dalton and Hailey. Our family recently participated in its’ last season at our previous gym. With that being said my husband and I wanted to create a cheer and tumbling program so that the local community would not feel the void of being left with no such program locally. Our new program is Horizon Storm Cheer & Tumbling. With so many participating locally we knew that we could not let 17 years of a good thing close. This is not my only business venture as I also run a special needs micr-school Horizons Tutoring in Coolidge AZ as well, 3 of my 4 children are special needs which is why this is such an important part of my work. I have hired a team of wonderful people to get out season up and running. If you see me around you can call me Mrs. Rebecca, Mehgans’ mom (which is actually what I hear the most). This season will be full of change, new expectations and high rewards. With our youngest two kids involved in cheer its definitely become a
lifestyle. I can’t wait to see your children thrive with the wonderful group of coaches that we have brought on to help them this cheer season.

My wife and I have 4 kids. Our family participated in the local cheer and tumbling
program for several years and with them closing their doors we thought it would be a great idea to open a program of our own Horizon Storm Cheer and Tumbling to fill the void. The kids that we have met and interacted with over the years have become like family. Our home, trips, sleepovers, and more are always overflowing with our Children’s friends that they have made throughout their time in these programs. I enjoy fitness, working out music, building, watching chickens and racing.

As a dedicated mother of two daughters, Krystal Barton is deeply rooted in the world of cheerleading, both as a cheer coach and a supportive cheer mom. Her passion for the sport was reignited this past season as she cheered on her daughter’s competitive “Ohana” team, a role she thoroughly enjoyed.
Krystal’s own journey in cheerleading began at 13, and she has been in and out of the cheer world ever since. Now, she’s thrilled to bring her experience and enthusiasm to her new role, teaching tumbling and co-coaching alongside an “Amazing staff of coaches.” Get ready for the Storm!
