teaching kids about UNSAFE touching

Parents of recreation gymnast needed to be educated about “spotting“, of course.

great SPOT – coach Chad Buczek

Chad is coach and owner of Metro South Gymnastics Academy, Canton, Mass.

At a competition in Tennessee, 9-year-old gymnast Cherrish Remy barrels her way toward the vault and launches herself off the springboard, but she’s off the mark.

Luckily, her quick-acting coach Chad Buczek appeared out of nowhere and caught little Cherrish before her fall could go really badly.

“I instantly broke out into a sweat,” said the girl’s mother. “It’s definitely not the first time he’s saved her,” she continued, speaking of Coach Buczek.

Yeo Sejeong – Vault spot

The near coach is a terrific spotter. And he has a second coach spot on the other side for some vaults.

As one who likes double spotting, I appreciate this.

Simone’s Yurchenko Double Pikes

Podium training.

Very good spotting, as well. He’s ready in case of under-rotation.
