Coach Leonard Isaacs


Leonard Isaacs worked with Bill Sands back in the early years of Elite women’s Gymnastics.

And he’s still coaching today.

One of the sport’s most celebrated innovators, Leonard pioneered the concept of teaching gymnastics with progressions rather than spotting.

This idea, revolutionary for its time, was enormously influential on Doug Davis, Tumbl Trak founder and one of Leonard’s mentees.

Through their close relationship, Leonard helped develop some of Tumbl Trak’s most important products, including the Laser Balance Beam and Pit Pillow!

See more on his legacy on his Tumbl Trak Ambassador page.

would Trump support the L.A. Olympics 2028?

I don’t think so.

As President, Donald Trump campaigned to bring the Olympics to Los Angeles.

But I fear that he and his Party have spiralled into thinking where only the rich deserve tax payer dollars. He’s likely to do everything he can to disparage the Games should he win the 2024 election.

My opinion. I hope I’m wrong.

Black Olympic Floor podium

I’m old enough to remember when Gymnastics coaches thought gymnasts of African heritage were usually too tall, too heavy to be great at our sport. They actively recruited children of Asian heritage.

We were wrong.

Andrade, Biles and Chiles captured gold, silver and bronze in the women’s floor final. It was the first Olympic gymnastics podium with three Black women. …

The podium also represented 20 Olympic medals with Biles owning 11, Andrade six and Chiles three.

inspiring kids to do Gymnastics

Handing out medals to just a few is only one small goal of the Olympic Movement.

Motivating children to do sport — I’d argue — is much more important.
