Patti Komara wrote this little article that is dead on. One thing that parents are willing to pay for is their child’s education. Why not sell your program as such. I truly successful preschool program is, by nature, educational. I’d love to hear everyones thoughts on this…please leave a comment.

Anyways….the link the article is below:

GymnasticsCoaching.com is one of my favorite gymnastics sites. Here is part of the “about” page:

Gymnastics is fundamental to all sport and essential for acrobatic sports.

Trampoline and gymnastics are prerequisite for athletes who want to flip and twist.

Here we post items of interest to all coaches of acrobatic sports. Increasingly we will be adding video now that services like YouTube make it convenient and inexpensive.

Remember that this is a blog, opinion, not journalism. We have no fact checkers nor lawyers. If you see a mistake we are happy to fix it. If you have a different opinion on something, we would very much like to post it.

Anything NEW or DIFFERENT we want to share.

GymnasticsCoaching.com is edited by Rick McCharles from Canada. He is a career gymnastics coach and part-time talent scout for Cirque du Soleil.

Rick’s website is one of the most updated gymnastics sites on the net…check it everyday.

Welcome to GymnasticsLinks.com. I have been trying to think of a way to develop this domain for a while, but I could never really come up with anything. I think this blog solves that problem.

I will try to feature one gymnastics site per week. Beyond that, I can’t promise much. Hopefully this will help someone find out a little more about gymnastics.

On to the first featured site…The Chalk Bucket.

The Chalk Bucket is an online gymnastics community. One of the great features of The Chalk Bucket is the ability to join groups to better describe yourself. Some of the more popular groups are: Parents, Gymnasts, and Coaches. The Chalk Bucket started about 2 years ago and already has around 700 members. Join The Chalk Bucket….it’s FREE.

By the way, I also run The Chalk Bucket.
