Three-time Olympic gymnast Dominique Dawes joins Lisa to talk about her quest to change the culture of gymnastics through her gymnastic and ninja academies. She recently opened a new location in Rockville and tells us about the activities available at the grand opening celebration. She also talks about her years in the world of elite gymnastics, including as part of the 'Magnificent Seven' that won the gold medal at the 1996 Summer Olympic Games in Atlanta. Lisa and Dominque also dive into the darker side of gymnastics with the Larry Nassar scandal, and the abusive tactics used by many coaches, including Bela and Marta Karolyi.
