“GYMNASTICS” SEMINARS
It’s not “gymnastics”- it’s CrossFit.
Physics and biomechanics should be the basis for the skills we train. The goal is to apply knowledge of these elements to coach energy efficient movement patterns that count by our sports’ standards, are safe, reproducible, and consider the common range of motion CrossFitters typically have. It’s about working smarter, not harder.

The world is a big place, and if you are looking for a seminar but there isn’t one near you, PLEASE READ ON!
I’m a traveling coach- that’s what I do! I would be happy to entertain the idea of coming to YOU!
If you own the box or if you are a member and you think the owner might be keen to have me come visit, send me an email! I absolutely LOVE meeting new people in new places, and even if you think your “little town” does not sound enticing to me, know that my goal is not to holiday in beautiful places around the world- it’s to help the best I can!
I’ve traveled to some really “off the beaten path” places to coach, so don’t think I’m not willing to come to you. If my travel fees are covered and I get compensated for my time, that’s all I need!
If you find a location that is near you or where you might want to travel to, please contact the hosting gym to sign-up!

How does this work?
You and I schedule a date for a one or two day gymnastics seminar. I charge a (reasonable) flat fee that allows room for you to financially profit. I work out all the travel logistics, you advertise to your and your neighboring communities for the event, I get paid at the conclusion of the event and you keep the profits beyond that.
The goal is that we create a win-win-win scenario: I get to travel to meet amazing people and help them reach their goals; you can opt to make a profit while learning new training techniques for yourself and your coaching staff; and the attending athletes get to learn the simplest, most methodical and understandable ways to train their gymnastics skills from a fun-loving and friendly coach!
With your seminar we also schedule a free coach’s training day (up to 3 hours), and all attendees receive a take-away package of skills, drills and tutorials to continue their education on their gymnastics journey.
Again, we all win.
How are these gymnastics seminars different?
As I mentioned at the top of this page, I coach based on physics and mechanics. Though I have been coaching gymnastics since the age of 15, I am completely aware that this is CrossFit, and CrossFit is not gymnastics. For example, hollow body holds are a great exercise, yet have little to no value in the movements we perform. When was the last time you saw a static hollow body hold in competition? It’s a great exercise indeed, but not applicable to these dynamic kipping movements.
What I coach is relevant and to the point, and that’s the difference. All things I coach are physics and mathematics based, and honestly, they are just the easiest way to safely perform skills.
