Event Name: CROSSFIT GYMNASTICS CERTIFICATION
Event Date:  Saturday/Sunday, December 4-5, 2010, 9am-5pm
This certification will educate you in basic gymnastic movements which in turn will allow you to progress in your CrossFit workouts. Such skills and drills, basic or otherwise, will allow you to develop strength moves and variations in your personal training. All of these movements are based on form and the progression toward form with strength. Small moves will bring great rewards – you don’t rush these movements, you LEARN them!

“I will be hosting the certifications in order to expand the use of gymnastic skills and drills for those wanting to obtain proper form and use of gymnastics elements in CrossFit training. Proper execution of skills and drills for rings, parallettes, high bar/pull up bars, handstands. Emphasis will be on a multitude of movements including levers, planches, handstands, handstand pushups, dislocates, skin the cat, ground work, L-sits, muscle ups and much more. I want to challenge all comers with gymnastic moves but also show the importance of proper spotting, safety, while teaching the skill cues so trainers or trainees can pass on proper gymnastic movements in their workouts. There will be lecture and practical application of all drills taught with lots of Q & A. Not to mention my Texas sized humor will delight all those within earshot ”  — Jeff Tucker
