With confidence of the validity of my statement, I am saying that in my past 35 years of coaching on both sides of two major political systems of the World as the Romanian National Team Coach for 17 years and as Head Coach of the United States Olympic Team for the past 3 consecutive Olympic Games, visiting many gymnastics clubs and National Team Centers, I have never seen a more beautiful better organized, and more efficiently run gymnastics facility and program than at Tulsa World of Gymnastics .........
Tulsa World of Gymnastics is the State of the Art gymnastics program in the United States. They provide wholesome athletic training for young children throughout the Tulsa Area.................
As important as national recognition is to a gymnast, the model for ethics and integrity that the Bradshaw's provide is even more valuable to the impressionable young people they train.
How one person with vision, persistent leadership, and enthusiam can make a difference!! My children and I were overwhelmed by the magnitude and caliber of the gymnastics meet. (American Classic
