I began offering private lessons in the Maryland area in 2001 after many parents expressed interest in having me work with their young athletes. The rest is history. During the training session I focus on ‘the basics’ of the sport of gymnastic and work on ways to inspire the young gymnasts to reach their full potential. With 18 years of experience in the gymnastics gym, I know that the quality of the basics determine a gymnast’s destiny.

Some of the basics that are emphasized:

	Proper posture
	Competitive presentation
	Overall strength
	Core conditioning
	Flexibility
	Basic skills on all events
	Developing self-motivation
	Learning how to set goals and stick with it
	Overcoming fears, mental blocks, slumps, and frustrations

Training sessions: 30 minutes, 1 hour, and 1.5 hours
Individual, dual and group lessons offered.
