Wayne ThodenI have been involved in the sport of gymnastics for more than 37 years. As a competitive gymnast, I found the sport to be one that I love and the most challenging sport there is. As a coach, I find this sport to be the most rewarding. We are able to influence the children we coach in a positive way. To be able to guide, mold and challenge children to bring out the best in themselves and build character is amazing. To watch them grow and help them achieve their goals, to share in their triumphs and sorrows is the best reward for me. I am happy to be back at Nastics after spending nearly six years coaching in Maui. Nastics is the finest gymnastics club I have had the pleasure to work at and I look forward to working with all the children. I have coached Junior High, and High School Gymnastics teams, as well as Junior High, High School, and College Cheerleaders, all team levels, one through ten and am USA Gymnastics Safety Certified. When not coaching I am also a photographer and have shot for USA Gymnastics and International Gymnast magazines. I like to write YA fantasy, I am a published poet and love to create art. I am currently pursuing a Bachelors in computer animation and web design, (so I might need some help with my math homework.) I was a stand-up comic for ten years and won $10,000.00 on Americas Funniest People.
