Greetings!

Gymnastics Fun
The more a child tumbles, climbs, creeps, and crawls, the more densely wired the brain becomes for academic success. Movement is the architect of a child's brain. The two hemispheres of the brain are designed to constantly communicate with one another. The left side of the brain controls the right side of the body, and vice versa. Bilateral activities, common to all gymnastic programs, require both sides of the body to work together and separately.

IGM Gives Back
A thoughtful young man, Shrey Pothini, will be hosting his 8th birthday party at IGM on November 12th to support Avenues for Homeless Youth (www.avenuesforyouth.org). In partnership with IGM, his hopes are to collect many hand/bath towels and shower gel for the needy children. Please drop off donations any time between now and November 19th at IGM. We are thrilled to be a part of Shrey's good effort and we thank you in advance for your help.

Coach's Corner
From Coach Travis

Howdy, y'all! My name is Travis Doig. I am new to IGM and am excited to be coaching your children! Travis DoigI came to IGM from Texas to help with the boys and recreational programs. I remember how much fun gymnastics was (and still is) growing up, and it is great to see the excitement on the gymnasts' faces each time they come to class. Not only do I want to make the sport fun, but I also hope to teach them a little bit about life through gymnastics
