In 2002, Sekerová moved to the United States, under the sponsorship of gymnastics coach and author Wayne Evans, to train as a power tumbler and become a coach. She rejoined the Slovakian team for the 2003 World Championships in Anaheim, where she finished 78th all-around. She was her team's top scorer on two events, and shared the top score for the team on a third event. At the 2004 Olympics in Athens, she ranked 47th. She then competed at the 2004 World Cup in La Serena, Chile, where she won the gold medal on balance beam. She also competed at the 2005 American Cup in New York.
