Congratulations to Heidi who has recently become our youngest qualified coach!


Just a year ago Heidi was the star turn at our First Summer Show. She managed to dive roll over eight other gymnasts, then she decided to give up gymnastics and try some other sports.
However within a few months she realised that she was missing gymnastics and asked to return as a voluntary trainee coach. She has been helping at Women’s Artistic training on Saturdays. British Gymnastics (BG) does not allow under 14’s to become qualified coaches.

Recently Heidi had her 14th birthday and she attended a course on Sunday 29th June 2014 gaining an Award Scheme Coaching (ASC) Award. She is now qualified to coach all the skills covered in the BG Core Proficiency badges. She will have to wait until she is 16 to move to the next level.
Jo, our Head Coach, said, "Aspire Gymnastics is very pleased to have her as a Young Leader and a member of our coaching team".

Well done Heidi J
