Louis Smith BMW commercial

This is very well done. Features coach Paul Hall.

As Olympic gymnast Louis Smith prepares for London 2012, Form and Function — a documentary by Richard De Aragüés, director of TT 3D Closer to the Edge — explores the tensions between delivering both form and function in his performance as he aims for gold at London 2012, and the parallels in the development of the BMW i8.

Louis broke a finger on Horizontal Bar and is out for about a month. UPDATE: He’s already back training. Turned out to be more minor than prognosis.

Coach available in Toronto

Keith Russell by email:


Last year I was in Brazil presenting at a Biomechanics conference and doing coaching clinics for a couple of state federations and I had the pleasure of meeting a young lady Cassia Farias in several workshops / lectures.

Cassia is coming to Toronto in July for a one year work / study experience. She has asked me for information on Coaching Courses (she is familiar with most of the content of our Foundations Course via those lectures / workshops) and on possible job opportunities in Ontario. …

I found Cassia to be very alert, very intelligent, always prompt, and possessing a very pleasant personality. I strongly expect she would be a great asset to any club. Her English is fair, but I am sure will improve rapidly once here. …

Aside from Artistic coaching experience, she has a P.E. degree and background in Trampoline and Circus Arts. Check Cassia’s Resumé. (DOC)
