So you want to help gymnasts gain flexibility, explosive power, and crush their goals? Awesome. Learning the essential gymnastics coaching principles is the best way to become the go to person for your gymnastics community.

But the process of where to start can feel daunting. What are the safest and most effective flexibility methods? What strength and conditioning exercises will get gymnasts more powerful? Should gymnasts lift weights? And if so where do I start? What are the best injury prevention and pre-hab strategies? How do you build a fun, yet high performing culture where athlete's are motivated?

I'm going to help you cut through the confusion - to not only learn proper, science based flexibility and strength techniques, but also help them sky rocket training so they can see performance boosts and you can be happier in your day to day life.

In Essentials for Gymnastics Coaching, I'll walk you step-by-step through the "must know" principles that I have used to help 1000s of gymnasts gain flexibility and strength, reduce injury, and perform better. You'll also learn what I teach coaches and gym clubs around the world about culture development.

So get going, gymnasts are waiting for your help and expertise!
