NO Drills, .......... NO Skill....... ..........Know Drills, ...........Know Skill

About Me

Gymnastics Teacher/Coach/Videographer. I have a serious case of A.D.D. If you don't believe in such a thing and that it's only in my mind, you'll be confused and frustrated with my behaviours. If you accept it as something that is mostly out of my control, then we can laugh about it and get along better. So, please, don't get mad at me when I get distracted by a thought or a person or something that changes the channel in my mind.I also have a serious case of Psoriasis, a dry, scaly, skin condition that I'm trying to heal through natural alternatives. It hurts and it itches really bad like ants biting me all over, sometimes. So, I still wear longs sleeves and long pants even in 90 degree weather. If you can refrain from asking me, "Aren't you hot?" in 90 degree weather, I would appreciate it. Because, believe me, I am (hot). But it's not as bad as you think. People who live in deserts wear far more clothing than I do. I'm a bad-ass tumbling coach if you listen to me; I know a lot. I have studied and analyzed so many ways on how to teach all the intricate skills of a master tumbler. You won't know it cause I'm quiet and calm; but be coachable and you'll see what I mean.

Sammm's Tumbling Video from Summer 2006. Edited on February 19th 2007:

Here's Jason's Magic Trick Video; Sleight of hand with playing cards.

Rock Climbing at Rockville Climbing Center in Hamilton, NJ with host/friend, Angela. This is where Jon used to work, climb, and play.

My Round off Backhandspring Lay-Out on Spring Floor. It's been a while since I tumbled, so the first few of them hurt cause my technique was off. My body will not be able to take the pounding any longer; but here's my layout from March 14, 2007.

Sami Tessle's Winter/Spring 2007 tumbling video. My latest project. Learn the front tuck, barani, Arabian, and the full twisting layout.

Here's Tom Cruise doing a Standing Tuck. Pretty cool. lol. haha. Supposedly, he used to be a gymnast.
