Like a National Level Training Camp
Our Gymnastics Camp is a training camp experience.  National gymnastics team members attend training camps before they go to compete at the Olympics or World Championships.  TOP qualifiers attend a training camp as a reward for scoring the highest.  Our Gymnastics Training Camp is that kind of training camp.  We know because we’ve been there. 

Acquire New Skills 
Summer is the best time for gymnasts to learn and acquire new skills, when they are not tired from a full day in school and there are no competitions (except Elite meets) to prepare for.  Our gymnasts will be in the gym acquiring their new skills for next year and everyone who attends the training camp will be doing the same for the weeks they are there. 

Train for the Next Level 
Ordinarily our gymnasts move up at least one USAG Level every year and the skill acquisition base for that comes during the summer.  Since camp gymnasts are not working our with us for the entire summer, we can’t make that guarantee, but we do guarantee every gymnast who attends camp will get the same training that our gymnasts do while they are there. 

Innovative Training
We can guarantee that you will train like you have never trained before.  Yes, we do all the basic training progressions that everyone else does.  But we also use the same training methods that have produced a U.S. Olympic and World Championship team member.  We also use all of the very innovative training methods that those of you who have read our series of gymnastics training books are already acquainted with. Every day you will be coached by two Olympic level coaches and the author of some of the newest most innovative training gymnastics methods and a dozen gymnastics e-books. 

A Different Training Experience 
So our training camp is very different from the normal, commercial, gymnastics summer camps.  This is not a summer camp experience, this is an Elite training camp program experience.  It is for gymnasts who want to train seriously at a high level and learn how gymnasts train to be an Elite
