Biles was raised in Spring Texas in the Houston metro area, where her and her sister Adria received adoption by grandparents Ronald Biles and Nellie Biles. Simone first became interested in gymnastics while she was just six. The coach Aimee Borman invited her to Bannon's Gymnastix which was where they went on an outing. Biles won a gold medal for vaulting, and a bronze medal in floor during the 2010 Women's Junior Olympic National Championships. In 2011, she began competing in elite levels of competition. Two years later, she was a dominant competitor in the sport.
