Ex-Turn-Star Seitz: Mom with Moderation Plans - Ex-Turn-Star Seitz: Mom with Moderation Plans
Elisabeth Seitz, a three-time Olympian and former German gymnastics champion, has stepped away from elite sport. Last May, she announced her retirement in an emotional moment at the European Championships in Leipzig. Now, the athlete is embracing a new chapter—one that includes motherhood and fresh career ambitions.
Seitz’s life has changed dramatically since October, when she welcomed her son, Franz. She has described raising him as a 'lifelong mission,' a shift from her previous routine of 30-hour training weeks. Becoming a mother had always been a dream, and she is now savouring the balance between family life and personal growth.
Though she has retired from competition, Seitz remains active. She visits the gym regularly but has not returned to the apparatus since leaving the sport. Instead, she has taken on hosting roles at smaller events and delivers motivational speeches. She also runs training camps and experience days while working toward her coaching certification. Looking ahead, Seitz has expressed interest in television presenting. Alongside this, she plans to complete her teaching degree. Currently, she lives in Stuttgart with her partner, where she is building a life beyond gymnastics.
Seitz’s retirement marked the end of an era in German gymnastics. Her focus has now shifted to motherhood, education, and new professional opportunities. With her experience and public profile, she is already shaping a career that extends well beyond the competition floor.
