GK Elite, the most recognized manufacturer of gymnastics apparel in the world, announces an athlete representation agreement with Shawn Johnson, and Jana Bieger.

“The 2006 season was a spectacular year for me,” said Bieger. “I value the relationship and support from GK Elite as I continue to train for the 2008 Olympics.”.

Bieger will be graduating high school in 2007 and will attend community college near her home in Coconut Creek, FL as she prepares for the Olympics in 2008. Bieger's next competition will be the American Cup to be held in Jacksonville, Florida on March 2-3.

“Endorsing GK is a dream come true,” said 2007 National All Around Champion, Shawn Johnson. “I have always chosen to compete in GK.  The fit of the apparel is so important to my performance and wearing GK gives me one less thing to be concerned about.  I thought that it was especially neat that they actually let me design the leotard that I wanted to wear to Championships using their custom design services! I am so proud to endorse a company who truly cares about the athletes and caters to what they want."
