Our Mission

Our Mission.

Nick Ruddock Gymnastics exists to improve, evolve and progress the sport of gymnastics, and everyone involved in it.

That includes you. And if you’re serious about being the best version of yourself, and contributing positively to gymnastics in any way, we’d love to help.

Everything we do is centred on five key beliefs

Key beliefs

# 1

All gymnastics leaders, coaches and athletes should be ABLE to improve.

Location, budget, age or experience; none of these things should be barriers that get in the way of you accessing educational content and other opportunities to learn, grow and develop.

# 2

Everything coaches do should result in a positive, prosperous career and a better quality of life.

We don’t believe in ‘winning at all costs’.

We believe in being fiercely competitive, but we strongly believe that when an athlete is in your hands, you take on a significant chunk of responsibility for their wellbeing. Coaches should work to increase happy, healthy and hungry-to-learn athletes, and everything we do promotes that approach.

# 3

Education provided for coaches and athletes should be accessible and applicable.

It’s all very well providing education, but if the learning curve is too steep, neither you or your athlete will improve. By softening that learning curve, your skills and knowledge gradually improve, allowing the performance of your athletes to follow.

# 4

Success isn’t a dirty word, and we should strive for it.

We’re serious about success, from grass roots, right through to Olympic level. It’s key that we contribute to your success, and the success of your athletes, challenging you to fulfil your potential and supporting you to becoming the best version of yourself.

# 5

You deserve world class content, education and experiences.

We aim to make everything we do world-leading; from amazing events, to our coaching programmes to our online material. We don’t phone it in – you can expect the very best, every single time.

Nick has had a huge impact on the development of gymnastics coaches, always inspiring us to strive to better ourselves

From what I’ve learnt from Nick in the last 3 months is invaluable, and I couldn’t pay enough money for it
