I dropped in to see coach Leonard Isaacs at his new club in Lake Barrington outside Chicago.
Owner Gary Griffin brought Leonard in to KIAGA – a gorgeous, clean 23,000 square foot facility only 3 years old.
Leonard Isaacs and Bill Sands were the first Elite American coaches I ever followed. They coached together in Chicago a … few years ago. 🙂
Both are still two of the gurus that influence me most as a coach.
Leonard is an advisor and consultant to Tumbl Trak, coming up with new innovations to make Gymnastics training safer. This time he showed me a series of non-spotting progressions for teaching high to low “Bail” handstand on Bars. That video will be released soon.
Here’s a background article on Kids in Action – KIAGA’s Coach Gary.
