A team led by 11-time Olympic champion Simone Biles has launched on a tour of the United States for a “high-energy and high-flying, gymnastics-meets-pop-concert spectacle.”

The Gold Over America Tour showcases its performers’ incredible aerial exploits and athletic ability, which has propelled some members of the group to Olympic triumph.

Biles stated in a news release that she is “so excited” and described the trip as “a victory lap around the US.”

“It’s more of a celebration tour,” Biles told ‘s Wire, referring to the tour’s forthcoming fourth event in San Jose on Saturday.

“Not just for us gymnasts, but for the audience as well because we’re all celebrating our big wins over in Paris, so to bring us all in one place and get to tour America, there’s no better way.”

She stated that she was excited to “share the love and passion that we have for gymnastics with everyone in the audience.”

The lineup includes many of Biles’ national teammates, including Jordan Chiles, who is presently appealing a decision that denied her a bronze medal at the Paris Olympics, Jade Carey, Hezly Rivera, and Joscelyn Roberson.

“We don’t have to get judged on every event!” When asked what the most significant difference between the tour and the competition was, Chiles told Wire. “There are no numbers; nothing like that. I believe it is simply about us having fun and expressing ourselves. There are many diverse characters on this tour.”

Team USA’s male representatives include Paul Juda, Brody Malone, and Frederick Richard.

This year’s trip, however, is the first time male athletes have joined the ensemble.

Biles described the athletes’ connection as a “brother and sisterhood” and stated that she was excited to work with gymnasts with whom she does not usually interact.
