Gym Jam Camp

Here are some of the coaches and counselors dancing together at the end of camp dance.
Some of the gymnasts, Malayna, Anika, and Lilia, building a little home for them at the beach on Wednesday.... which was our beach day (the kids got to go to the beach after practice on Wednesday).
Lilia dug herself a little hole to climb into.
The camp counselors and coaches acting a little bit crazy on Thursday night.... this was at the dance.
Me and some of my gymnasts at the dance; Malayna, Lauren, me, Anika, and Lilia.
And here are some of the coaches and then of course Cindy... the lady who runs the show... the business lady of the camp... Marshall, Cindy, Aladine, Kyle, and myself at the dance.

Gym Jam camp was a really fun experience for me. It was held up on University of Santa Barbaras campus, so it was georgious. I met a lot of cool new people. Got to coach along side FIVE olympians (3 American olympians and 2 Canadian olympians) as well as many other collegiate gymnasts from around the nation: we had guy gymnasts/coaches from Nebraska, UCLA, and THE Ohio State, we had girl gymnasts from UCLA, Boise State, Oregon State, Michigan State, UC Fullerton, and UC Sacramento, as well as many other experienced coaches. I learned a lot and enjoyed coaching the many different types of gymnasts and levels that I was able to coach. Hopefully I will have the opportunity to work at the camp next year.
