Purpose:   Provide kids of all ages building blocks for success through the physical activity of gymnastics . Instructors are expected to bring professionalism, enthusiasm, safe practices, and their own unique experiences and strengths to their teaching, while following all guidelines as outlined in the Instructor Handbooks. CSC has a curriculum ready to be incorporated into all lessons, but provides the opportunity to use your own skills to become the best you can be.

Success is measured by each instructor’s ability to gain smiles and skills from within full classes, build loyalty through active learning week after week, and then progress students up to the next level.

Instructors teach with the support and guidance of an entire team of other coaches led by a Gymnastics Coordinator who is in charge of setting the standards of instruction for the program. Excellent training toward higher levels is provided.  Instructors also implement and/or promote specific themes, skills, goals, projects, and events, as assigned.

1. To TEACH.
2. To provide OUTSTANDING CUSTOMER SERVICE.
3. To provide a SAFE AND HEALTHY ENVIRONMENT for all.
4. To have FUN (and encourage others to have fun).

• Experience in child related services or youth sports coaching is given priority.
  
• Gymnastics teaching experience previously is a major plus. 
  
• A background as an athlete in competitive youth sports – especially gymnastics - is a great bonus.

General Skills: Leadership – Self-motivated, but also a team player.
