Summary: A Rhythmic Gymnastics Bible
Comment: This is one of the best, most complete books I have ever read about any sport, and it inspired me to try rhythmic gymnastics, which I now love. A fabulous resource, with plenty of pictures and diagrams, this book includes chapters about body movements, dance, apparatus handling techniques, putting together routines, coaching hints and strategies, competition advice and info, and much, much more. This is the only book that you will need as a rhythmic gymnast or a coach to get the best out of rhythmic gymnastics. A wonderful, fantastic book, and highly recommended!

Summary: The Best Book Out There On Rhythmic Technique
Comment: This is a great book for coaches and athletes alike. It goes through detailed explainations of jumps, apparatus technique, balances and general dance steps. This book is especially great for coaches because of its detailed descriptions and explainations. Younger gymnasts will need guidance due to technical jargon used, but it is definately a must have for any coach, gymnast or rhythmic enthusiast.

Summary: Simply the best book on Rhythmic Gymnastics you will find
Comment: This is the best book on coaching Rhythmic Gymnastics (or any sport) I have ever seen - It is so incredibly detailed. Talk about value for money !- it is absolutely packed to the brim full of precise descriptions on floor technique, handling the apparatus, developing strength and flexibility, dance, preparing for competitions, and more. It also includes many excellent diagrams to accompany the text, demonstrating beautifully the form and technique required for each skill clearly and simply.This book is the ONLY book you will ever need to purchase on Rhythmic Gymnastics to coach all the way up to the elite level. The book offers many good tips for gymnasts wishing to be elite to get the competetive edge they need and to be the best they can be. I thoroughly recommend this book to all.
