the BEST gymnastics coaching manual is …

Yup. It’s best English language gymnastics book available, in my opinion, succinctly explaining the movement pattern approach of principle author Keith Russell.

The 3-ring binder format allows you to add your own coaching resources.

The Coaching Level 2 and 3 manuals are also recommended though they have weak chapters and have not been revised in many years.

E-mail Gymnastics Canada for current prices as their website shop is “under development”. (Actually it’s been under development for months. Or years. … Don’t hold your breath.)

Far more than 100,000 copies of the Canadian Level 1 have been published making it, I believe, the biggest selling gymnastics coaching manual of all-time. You may find a copy in your local library.

Ruschkin Publishing is currently working on a major revision. I’ve seen drafts. It looks great.
