Founder of the Ontario and Canadian Rhythmic Gymnastics Federations in 1968, the creator of the Four Continents Championships, and the crusader behind the sport's acceptance into the Olympics, Evelyn Koop's story is highly accented with experiences that originate in Sweden and across the world.

Evelyn Koop has taught Physical Education courses in Rhythmic Gymnastics, previously called “Modern Gymnastics”, at the Universities of Toronto, McMaster and McGill. Mrs. Koop authored the books of "Basic Modern Rhythmic Gymnastics" and "Judging", she developed Technical Manuals, By-Laws, and Constitutions for Rhythmic Gymnastics.

In 1991 “The World’s Best” international invitational competition was created, where Evelyn Koop was honoured by the Canadian Gymnastics Federation, naming the competition “Koop Cup”. Evelyn Koop was the choreographer for the opening ceremonies of the 1976 Olympic Games, demonstrating rhythmic gymnastics, which opened the door for the sport to be a part of the Olympic Games.

The first Olympic competition, in 1984, was won by a former Kalev athlete, Lori Fung. Evelyn Koop has had the honour of being selected as a world level judge, attending many international competitions, including the Olympic Games in Atlanta 1996. Evelyn was honoured to send Camille Martens from Kalev, as Canada's only competitor in rhythmic gymnastics at the 1996 Games. In 2000, Kalev's Emilie Livingston represented all of the Americas at the Olympic Games in Sydney!

Kalev has the most successful RG and AGG teams in Canada. Evelyn Koop will continue to expand and develop her love for rhythmic gymnastics in ever-new directions.
