Sarah Korngold (USA) On Valuing Athletes As Humans and Not Just as Gymnasts

Sarah Korngold, coach of Shilese Jones, discusses how they are very deliberate with their training, how Shilese has autonomy over her own gymnastics, which also helps boost her confidence in the skills she's going to perform, how USAG has listened and allows (and trusts) the coaches and athletes to prepare in the way that works best for them, and how Shilese has solidified for Sarah that her methods of coaching and enabling athletes can work at the highest levels of the sport.

Chellsie, The Landii's and Sarah Korngold are what has been needed in USAG for so long.

[@VoroninHop]

As a long loooooong time gymnastics devotee (since the 70s) it's great to finally see such a huge shift in attitude in the USA coaching ethos.
