Marisol Concepcion, Owner
Marisol's love for movement and performance began at the young age of three when she first stepped into the world of dance. Her dedication to the art flourished throughout her childhood and adolescence before she transitioned to cheerleading, where her passion for coaching, competition, and athlete development truly ignited.
Marisol's commitment to the sport first took shape through the remarkable success of East Pasco Invaders Recreational Cheerleading, a program she founded and led to new heights. That success paved the way for the creation of EPIC All Stars, which achieved the prestigious honor of competing at All Star Worlds in its very first season. As the program continued to grow, her vision evolved into what is now EPIC Training Center, offering athletes expanded opportunities across competitive cheer, dance, tumbling, and gymnastics.
Marisol's vision has always been to create a safe, nurturing, and empowering environment where athletes can develop not only their skills, but also their confidence, discipline, character, and love for their sport. Her leadership has guided athletes and teams to countless accomplishments while fostering a culture built on hard work, encouragement, unity, and believing in yourself.
Dedicated to continually expanding her knowledge as both a coach and leader, Coach Marisol is a Certified Open Championships (OCS) Judge and has completed training in Personal Training and Nutrition Coaching. Her education in these areas allows her to better understand the complete athlete—from proper training and physical development to performance, fueling, and overall wellness—helping her provide EPIC athletes with the best possible training experience.
Recognizing the need for more diverse opportunities for local youth, Marisol expanded EPIC's programming beyond cheerleading to include dance and additional athletic development programs. Through EPIC Training Center, she strives to provide a well-rounded approach to athletic and personal development while giving athletes of different ages, interests, and experience levels a place to learn, grow, and thrive.
Marisol's commitment to community extends far beyond the walls of EPIC Training Center. She is a dedicated supporter of the East Pasco community and actively contributes as a member of Main Street Zephyrhills and the East Pasco Chamber of Commerce, advocating for youth enrichment, local partnerships, and continued community growth.
Through her unwavering dedication to her athletes, continued education, and commitment to the community, Coach Marisol strives to inspire every athlete who walks through EPIC's doors to become the strongest, most confident version of themselves—both in their sport and in life.
