My name is Manuel Perez, and I have been teaching gymnastics and motor skills since 1973. The Fun and Games Coach is the result of many years of specializing in motor skills and movement. Throughout my career, I’ve had parents, teachers, and directors comment on the results they’ve seen in their homes and classrooms. They wanted to replicate these results but did not have the proper equipment or know-how to properly use it.

Fast forward to today, the short video clips on this website can help anyone that works with children accomplish similar results. I have found that motor development plays a huge role in children’s confidence and self-esteem. By also impacting the self-discipline of the child, there is a steady positive change in behavior both in the classroom and at home. Fun and humor, in my opinion, are the keystones to unlocking a child’s willingness to learn. Physical and mental challenges are not as daunting when a child is distracted from what they fear. My expertise is in using these positive characteristics to reach and teach children.

Humor is especially relevant when approaching children who are overactive or have low self-esteem and other issues. My goal is to help children develop self-esteem, self-worth, and self-discipline through joy from physical fitness. Having presented my creative teaching techniques to learning centers, church weekday schools, and sports camps, and doing over 30 Motor Skills and Movement Workshops, I started my “Gymnastics Plus Mobile Gym on Wheels Program” in 1986 at learning centers, Montessori schools, weekday preschools, and private schools. I was teaching children as early as 18 months through early elementary.
