I think this is a nice book about gymnastics, but like one reviewer said, it's a little too short. It starts off with a forward by Shannon Miller, a history of gymnastics, what to wear to class, and shows a typical gym. The section with the skills was pretty good, but there weren't many in here. The instructions were nice and detailed, though, and I liked the rythmic gymnastics and sports acrobatics part. It's great for people who want to learn about the sport or beginning gymnasts.
A Really Good Book for Beginning Gymnasts
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
This is one of the best books on gymnastics I have read. It has pictures that show people how to do the move, and it starts with really simple tricks and moves on to the most difficult trick in the book- a backhandspring. It also has parts on sports acrobatics and rythmic gymnastics. It's a great book, but I would recommend it to beginning gymnasts.
Excellent For Beginning Gymnasts

This is a very good instructional guide for begging to early intermediate gymnasts. It starts off with a forward by Shannon Miller and a history of gymnastics. Most of the book explains how to do artistic gymnastics skills from an easy forward roll to a back handspring. It also icludes sections on rythmic gymnastics and sports and acrobatics.
