Rec Gymnastics Report Cards
Parents want them.

Instructors often don’t like writing them up. ☹️

Kids aren’t keen on Report Cards. ☹️

Class time is often wasted doing the evaluation. ☹️

Click PLAY or watch how Flair Gymnastics does it on YouTube. A training diary, rather than Report Card.

Flair Gymnastics Coach Uniforms
Click PLAY or watch it on YouTube.

If instructors LOVE their uniform, no problem.

If they try to avoid wearing it, we have an issue. ☹️

My favourite coaching uniform system over many, many years was a simple tank top that could be quickly thrown over anything … or worn by itself.

We kept some at the Gym so any coach who had forgotten (or forgotten to wash) could grab one on the way into the Gym.

coaching Adult Rec Gymnastics
Great interview with coach Sara Baer from Saluki Gymnastics, Carbondale, IL.

My favorite aspect of teaching adults is their excitement about being there, challenging them, and experiencing their joy and surprise when they do something they never thought they could do.

The hardest part about teaching adults is balancing time allocated to improving basic skills, increasing flexibility, and conditioning needed to progress in gymnastics with only one practice a week while introducing new skills so that they don’t get bored.

Sara Baer spills the beans on what it really takes to coach adult gymnasts.
