This is a risky class because the student does not have a coach at home to work with them on proper form and technique and the potential for injury exists.

I've been coaching gymnastics and dance for 14 years. I'm a current owner/operator of a gymnastics business located in Southern California. I'm certified through USA Gymnastics and Acrobatic Arts and I've learned from many different coaches and instructors throughout my years of coaching. I truly love to see the gymnast improve with unique progressions. Watching students achieve skills and be excited about accomplishing a body movement is amazing to watch!Reviews
