Start Your Gymnastics Right!
A Comprehensive Guide for Gymnastics Coaches
This live video training offers an honest look inside my gym—what works, what’s imperfect, and why culture matters more than appearances. I’ll walk through how we manage a busy, mat-heavy gym by teaching athletes responsibility, safety, and respect for equipment, and why a “busy” gym can still be a safe, productive one when the right systems and expectations are in place. Led by Al Fong, this session is designed to help coaches and gym owners build stronger environments through education, ownership, and culture

LEARN TO BE A BETTER
At GAGE we like to take a 3-year approach when teaching advanced skills.
"Always train for tomorrow."
Some kids learn faster. Some slower.
It doesn’t matter.
Using this approach allows for
a healthy, nurturing culture where
gymnastics thrives and difficult skills become easier to learn over time.
The biggest challenges young coaches deal with are:
1. How to transition from a compulsory mindset to an optional mindset
2. Keeping kids healthy physically and mentally
3. Not killing the spirit while pushing the kids to excel in gymnastics
4. Trying to navigate through the noise of good coaching advice
and bad coaching advice.
On Tuesday I hope to help you on your coaching journey by sharing the things we have learned over 40 years of teaching and sharing the best methods to teach kids how to learn more advanced skills. Great for coaches who are currently coaching optional level gymnastics and coaches whom one day aspire to coach at the higher levels!
Teaching gymnasts high-level skills can sometimes feel like a daunting task. On Tuesday I will cover the way we teach and create an environment that endorses safety, more accessible progressions and ultimately helping the gymnast and coach find success.
Don't Miss it!
