Hooray for Coaches Day is presented by Mickey’s Sports and Promotions. We are profiling Dan Caldwell.
You’re never too old to start gymnastics, that’s according to Gymnastics coach with Renfrew Recreation, Dan Caldwell. Dan was an adult when he found his way to the sport. He suffered injuries as a white water kayaker and went looking for another sport that could help put him back together again. He found what he was looking for in his mid-thirties, and has been participating and coaching in the sport ever since. He believes there’s something within the sport for every body, no matter the shape, physical fitness level or skill. But he says he’s not a pushover as a coach, he loves to engage, be creative and keep things fun, but you have to be willing to put in the work. His philosophy is hard work takes you a long way, he says easy is rarely rewarding.
