Natalie Bivens got her start in gymnastics at the age of three. Natalie's parents had her try multiple different sports, but ultimately Natalie fell in love with gymnastics. Natalie began competing at the age of five as an Xcel Bronze gymnast in February 2021. At her first meet, the Dragon Invite, Natalie finished in the top five on floor. Through the remainder of her 2021 season, Natalie competed two more meets as an Xcel Bronze.

Currently, Natalie trains at Pride of Illinois. Natalie's goal for her 2022 season is to have a tighter pivot turn on beam and get her back handspring on floor. In the future, Natalie hopes to get her giants on bars.
