What is Important or Worthwhile to Pursue in Life?

That’s a tough question to answer, even for adults, let alone for young people to ponder without help. As you know, anything you do in life that’s important or worthwhile has long-lasting effects. Achieving will take focus and an investment of effort. Understanding this concept is a life lesson some young people will never learn until they are aging adults. Yet, some learn it early and get a head start to develop both self-reliance and character.

Life Lesson – Investment of Effort

At Dynamic Gymnastics, we teach gymnastics with life lessons in mind. We teach our students to set goals and do the work to reach them. They don’t do this alone.

We coach and mentor every student to help them improve and reach their full physical and mental potential, regardless of the gymnastics program they choose. Gymnastic skills are the path we take to help develop young people. For us, nothing is more important than serving and assisting young people in growing and improving.

Far-Reaching Effects

As Head Coaches for 34 years in 4 gyms, Sorin and Teodora have helped shape the lives of an estimated 15,000 young people with gymnastic training, mentoring, and competing. The self-knowledge our student gain is extremely valuable. Our experience of teaching and coaching them is precious. It has helped us become better coaches and share in the joy and excitement of our student’s achievements.

Our students benefit from learning new skills and accomplishing their goals.
