Take your place next to your gymnasts: it’s thanks to you that they’ll go further!

Assistance techniques are there to help bring that extra input of energy that your gymnast might need. When you’re standing by, you stay close to the gymnast and you intervene if there’s a risk of danger or falling. When supporting, you are fully involved: with precise positioning, the coach gives the gymnast an experience of the entire movement, in order to help her create a representation of the work needed.

Through our training videos, you’ll learn all of these different techniques. You’ll find everything you need: where to stand, how to place your hands and at what moment you need to intervene. And to make it easier to visualize movements, we alternate with slow motion sequences and views from a body-worn camera so that you can see clearly where to place your hands. Images at normal speed allow you to see the whole spotting sequence in real time. After that, to master different spotting situations and feel confident, it’s all a question of training and repetition.

So, get out of your comfort zone – you’re up!
