Springfit

Gymnastics coach.

Kayleigh Donovan

I love gymnastics because it is a fun way of keeping fit and I have done it alongside trampolining for most of my life!
Seeing the gymnasts having fun is great to be part of and make it happen, and it’s very rewarding to see how pleased they are when they get their next proficiency award. A badge and certificate can mean a lot to younger children with lots of ambition. I feel proud to have helped them achieve it, and contribute to the huge smile on their face as they run to their parents to show them.
Clearly I like coaching the little ones because they are fun and full of energy and like to try new things. It is great to see that develop into the older ones, who are more able to listen and understand what is required of them. Their control and discipline is very good to work with, and we still get to have fun!

Springfit has given me a healthy and fun job to focus my time on, as well as an activity to practice and work towards improving during the week. I like to try and pass on what I’ve learned to the many children that attend the club.
