small town in NH. if it wasn,t for the presidential primary, no one would know where we are.
ok, i know there are only nine, but it doesn't sound as good
All gymnastics comes from tumbling.
Obviously on Beam and Vault but on Bars all flips are taught first on floor
Conversation with parent,“Why are they working handstands when they need a back handspring?”
come up with a plan and have the guts to follow it through.
GIVE the kid a correction. Don't just tell them what they did.
They probably knew that already.
Has anyone seen the movie “Old School”?
Womens Gymnastics is 90% legs. Make sure you condition for it.
The Stomach tends to be the weak link. If the midsection is weak the body will not react
Arm conditioning- Pushing, Not just pull ups.
You Can not ignore the importance of MENTAL gymnastics.
For a child to be able to successfully do a skill they need to really understand it.
Sure they can get lucky every once and a while but they need to be able to see it, feel it,
Thesimple (yet unfortunate) answer is that kids get hurt.
When kids get hurt it forces me to break a skill down to give them“parts” of the skill they are working on.
handstands should be done on every event, every day

- PLAN. PROPER PLANNING PREVENTS PISS POOR PERFORMANCE
- TEACH THE BIG PICTURE. DON'T BE SO TECHNICAL WHEN THEY ARE LEARNING.
- PATIENCE. NOT EVERYONE LEARNS AT THE SAME PACE
- TEACH IT RIGHT THE FIRST TIME
- SAFETY ROLLS. LEARN HOW TO FALL. IT IS GOING TO HAPPEN, BE PREPARED
- SMALL MUSCLES HELP BIG MUSCLES USE ALL OF THEM! CONDITIONING FOR SUCCESS
- PROVIDE TRAINING STATIONS, TWISTING RULES ETC. AND ENCOURAGE SIMPLE BASICS. -- THEN LET THEM EXPLORE
- SAME DIRECTION TWISTING FRONT AND BACK
- ARMS LEAD THE WAY
- SPOTTING IS A STEP NOT A SOLUTION
ok, i know there are only nine, but it doesn't sound as good
- FAILURE IS A PREREQUISITE FOR SUCCESS. LET THEM KNOW THAT IT IS OK.
- THEY CAN NOT MAKE A CORRECTION WITHOUT RISKING FAILURE
- ALL GYMNASTICS STARTS WITH TUMBLING
- TEACH IT RIGHT THE FIRST TIME
- GO BACK A STEP IF THE GYMNASTS GETS CONFUSED.

- TRY TO BE VERY METHODICAL.
- GIVE CORRECTIONS NOT OBSERVATIONS
- BE PATIENT

- Hit the board hard, close your eyes.
- TUMBLING IS 80 % LEGS. YOUR CONDITIONING SHOULD REFLECT THAT.
- THE STOMACH HOLDS THE BODY TOGETHER, IT IS OFTEN THE “WEAK LINK”
- ARMS NEED TO BE STRAIGHT, NEED TO PUSH, PULLING EXERCISES FOR BALANCE.
- MAKE THE MUSCLE STRONG. THEN TRAIN IT TO BE FAST.
- THE USE OF PLYOMETRIC CONDITIONING
- BODY SHAPES

- BREAK THE SKILL DOWN
- TEACH WHAT EACH PART NEEDS TO DO. TEACH WHAT THE END AND LANDING FEELS LIKE
- FIND AS MANY PLACES AS POSSIBLE TO DO THOSE POSITIONS

- OPEN SHOULDERS
- NEUTRAL HEAD POSITION
- TIGHT BODY
handstands should be done on every event, every day
- DONE EVERY DAY (AFTER FLEX., DURING FLOOR, WHENEVER)
- BASE FOR EVERY EVENT
- HAVE A PLAN, WHAT DO YOU WANT THEM TO GET FROM THIS?
- SPLIT WALK 3 SEC. SQUARE, THEN FLAT
- HANDSTAND FORWARD ROLL STRADDLE THROUGH
- BACK AND FRONT LIMBER
- BACK EXTENSION ROLL
- 3 STEPS KICK FRONT, SIDE, BACK
- KICK FRONT, SIDE, BACK, BWO
- ALTERNATE FRONT WALKOVER
- FORWARD ROLL TUCK, PIKE, STRADDLE UP TO HS.
- FRONT AND SIDE CARTWHEELS
- SIDE AND FRONT AERIALS
- SAFETY ROLLS- THERE IS ONLY 1 GUARANTEE, YOU ARE GOING TO FALL, SO BE READY.
- FORWARD AND BACKWARD ROLLS
- HANDSTANDS BEFORE CARTWHEELS
- FRONT AND BACK LIMBERS
- FRONT AND BACK WALKOVERS BEFORE HANDSPRINGS
- FAR ARM CARTWHEEL
- OVER STUFF
- ONTO STUFF
- UPHILL
- DOWN HILL

- I TEND TO DO HURDLE FRONT HANDSPRINGS BEFORE ROUND OFFS
- FRONT HS

- FHS - FRONT TUCK/ PIKE- REBOUND- BOUNDER

- RUN PUNCH FRONT- BOUNDER- REBOUND
- RUN PUNCH FRONT- PUNCH FRONT
- FHS-FRONT PIKE- FRONT
- ROWS OF BHS (TIME THESE!)
- ROUND OFF BHS “SET”
- BE WILLING TO SPOT “SET” AND LAYOUT FOR GOOD BODY POSITION
- I TEACH LAY OUT FIRST. THEN PIKE/ TUCK
- MAKE SURE THEY KNOW HOW TO LAND
- I PREFER TEACHING A STRAIGHT ARM DROP FOR TWISTING. (LIKE ON TRAMPOLINE)
- TEACH IN 1/4 INCREMENTS (ON TRAMP)
- TEACH A LATE TWIST BECAUSE TWISTS GET EARLIER AS-THEY GET COMFORTABLE. (MOST DOUBLE BACK FULL-OUTS BECOME 1/2 IN 1/2 OUT)
- TRY TO KEEP “THE END” THE SAME. ADD TWISTS TO THE BEGINNING
- MATCH FRONT TWISTING WITH BACK TWISTING. (A FRONT LAYOUT LANDS THE SAME AS A BACK LAY OUT 1/2. A FRONT 1/2 LANDS THE SAME AS A BACK LAYOUT 1/1)
- SIDE ARCH UPS/ ROCKS
- JUMP TURNS WITH CORRECT ARMS
- BHS TO STOMACH, ROLL SIDEWAYS IN DIRECTION OF TWIST

- ROLL DOWN WEDGE MAT
- SWIVEL HIPS (SEAT DROP 1/2 TO SEAT DROP)
- CRUISE (STOMACH DROP 1/2 TO STOMACH)
- CRADLE (BACK DROP 1/2 TO BACK DROP)
- IT’S ALL ABOUT AIR TIME.
- I TEND TO TEACH DOUBLE PIKES FIRST.
- DEAL WITH THEIR FEAR

- SPOT LANDING BETWEEN FLIPS
- LOTS OF TUMBLING UP TO FAT MATS
- LAYOUT UP- FLIP OFF
- FAST LEG LIFTS ON BARS
- DOUBLES WITHOUT GRABBING LEGS INTO PIT
