 Introduction

Success in life is a matter not so much of talent or opportunity as of concentration and perseverance - C.W. Wendte  
 

THE NATIONAL OPEN GYMNASTIC PROGRAM uses the "Profile" Gymnastic Development System!  This original and highly successful program was the first United States Jr. Elite Gymnastic Development System for the selection and development  of the exceptional/elite women gymnast - ages 6 to18.  This original American "Profile System" of learning elite level gymnastics is valued as the only  proven women's gymnastic development program in the United States.  The "Profile System" is found  most successful when begun at early ages of 6 to 9. This  would  include  such "Profile System" Junior Elite Developmental Program gymnasts that started at this early  age of  6 to 9. With some of the below listed girls continuing in this  "Profile" Junior Elite Developmental Program until teenagers. to include some of America's Olympic, World, N.C.A.A. best; i.e. Shannon Miller, Dominique Dawes, Amanda Borden, Amy Chow, Jenny Hanson, Jennifer Sey, Angie Denkens, Stacey Gunthorpe/their coaches and current U.S.A. National Team Members, Mohini Bardwha and Ashley Postel.

This proven and likely the  finest  independent American "Profile" Jr. Elite Gymnastic Program is based upon the original U.S.S.R./ Russian gymnastic "Profile Gymnastic Exercise System" of learning gymnastics.  The original research of the Soviet / Russian gymnastic "Profile System", was published the U.S.S.R. Journal Gymnastica, in 1973. 

 "IT IS AMAZING HOW MUCH IS ACCOMPLISHED IF NO ONE CARES WHO GETS THE CREDIT" - John Wooden, U.C.L.A.


 
  THE "PROFILE" GYMNAST PERFORMANCE RECORD:

  • Today's and yesterdays outstanding gymnast performance and health records show that the Profile Gymnastic Selection and Development Program is total in its development.  The Profile Gymnastic System along with its sports medicine, sports science and state of the art gymnastic techniques taught are both directly and indirectly responsible for developing many past and present United States gymnastic champions!  
    So, from 1980 through 2004 a great number of: (1)  HIGH SCHOOL, (2) A.A.U., (3) U.S.A.I.G.C., (4) Y.M.C.A., (5) N.C.A.A., (6) WORLD  and OLYMPIC GAMES champions along with their excellent coaches selected National Coach Gary Goodson as their mentor and they and their gymnasts were involved in the "Profile" National Gymnastic Development Program for many years.  In the 1996 Olympic Games in Atlanta, four members out of our "Magnificent Seven" 1996 Atlanta Olympic Games Women's Team, along with their coaches had been gymnastically active for years in Mr. Goodson's "Profile System"  Jr. Elite Gymnastic Development Program. Record shows that these Olympic gymnasts and their coaches were active from 2 to 7 years each working the Russian based " Profile Gymnastic System" and beginning with training and passing: (1)  National Physical Ability & Profile Elements Jr. Elite Testing, (2) learning and using many of Gary's United States/Canadian, Russian and Chinese studied, "state of the art coaching techniques", (3) using the state the art Sports Medicine/Science from  (Dr.'s Benadot, Nutritionist; Massimo, Psychologist; Rocco, Sports Orthopedic Surgeon; and  Physical Therapists Black ; Ross Breakville; and Physiologist , John Frapier while gymnasts attending Winter / Summer National & International Jr. Elite Development Program Training Camps.

    INTRODUCTION
    •  What we do upon some great occasion will probably depend on what we already are; and what we will be the result of previous years of self discipline - H.P.Liddon 
       

    The Profile Gymnast:   The Profile female gymnasts in the National Open Gymnastic Program will  become the best they can become in gymnastics by beginning her gymnastics as young as possible, perhaps as young as 6 to 8 years of age.  

    Then, follow these three important steps: 

    (1)  The gymnast must get into good gymnastic physical condition as soon as possible; and stay in good physical condition! 

    (2)  The gymnast must then master the key/core, "Profile Gymnastic Elements" as soon as possible! Note, Profile Elements are partially defined as elements of central tendency in families of gymnastic moves.*  

          *Definition of Profile Gymnastic Elements: Profile Elements are identified by listing gymnastic elements into families, i.e. the Kip Family as performed by women gymnasts on the un-even bars. These Kips are then listed in order of difficulty beginning with the simplest Kip to the most difficult/complex  Kip.  The Profile Element is the Kip in the middle.  The Mean, Median, Mode element in the family of Kips.  This simply becomes the element of central tendency in the family of moves.  These Profile Elements which have been determined in all families of gymnastic elements in each of the women's four Olympic events must then be mastered by women gymnasts as soon as possible! 

    (3)  The gymnast must then do thousands of correct repetitions of these Profile Elements! 

    (4) With the above steps (#1, #2, #3) well established, the gymnastic coach and gymnasts can now safely add an additional flip/twist or both to the "Profile Element" and they are now likely executing the best, possibly original gymnastic element in the U.S./World!
