Skills and Drill
Drill and Skills
Drills for a wide variety of both men's and women's gymnastics skills. Includes skills for every apparatus as well as graphics of the skill for clarification. The skills page is
intended to be a forum for gymnasts, coaches, or anyone who just wants to learn about gymnastics skills. It was created because I noticed a lack of this kind of information on the net. If you are a gymnast it is not intended to replace your coaches techniques. It is just to give different viewpoints and ideas on how to learn a skill. Every gymnast learns skills differently. This is a place you can submit and find different techniques and methods to learn various gymnastics skills. This is NOT intended to teach anyone gymnastics in an uncontrolled environment. Many of the skills discussed could be extremely hazardous if done incorrectly. Please only work these drills under a qualified
coaches direction. Many of these skills involve flight, inversion, and unusual positions, any of which could result in serious injury, paralysis, or death.
