Here’s what people are saying about The Gymnastics Culture Cure
Kaysha Heck
Sports Physical Therapist
and Gymnastics Coach
"Dave's information on gymnastics culture is an absolute game changer.
As a busy coach and medical provider, I know all too well how hard it can be working in the sport.
We have gone through some tough times these last 5 years with gymnastics culture changing so much, and Dave's advice in The Gymnastics Culture Cure offers people clear, simple, and practical steps they can take to be happier in the sport.
I can't recommend this book enough to anyone working in gymnastics!
Courtney Kamberalis
Former Level 10
and NCAA Gymnast
"I had 2 ankle surgeries, back pain, and a shoulder injury in my career which all were extremely difficult to manage in my club and college settings given the culture we had.
Along with Dave's advice on my injuries, the concepts he talks about related to prioritizing your mental / emotional health as a gymnast, and taking steps to really make sure that you are communicating about your goals, were life saving for me.
Thanks to Dave's guidance with concepts he talks about in his new book, I was able to stay in gymnastics all the way through college, finish my career how I wanted, and ended up going to Physical Therapy school myself! I can't thank Dave enough.
Mike Reinold
Sports Physical Therapist

Co-Owner of Champion PT
"I've seen Dave use the exact techniques from this new book in the clinic and in his consulting practice - and they work.
It's been so great to see first hand how the ideas around updating the gymnastics culture to modern, science based techniques can make such a massive impact on the happiness and health of both the professionals working in the sport and the gymnasts who are training.
It's conversations like this that can really move the needle, and help people get to a better place. This is a must read for anyone in gymnastics.
