Some of the best moments in gymnastics never make the podium. Or even to a competition.
They’re the encouraging words from a coach, the excitement of learning a new skill, the high five after a tough session, the friendships made along the way, and the quiet moments of pride that remind us why we love our sport.
That’s what #ManahauMoment is all about.
We’re inviting the gymnastics community across Aotearoa to share the moments of joy, connection, celebration and community that make gymnastics special.
Whether you’re an athlete, coach, judge, volunteer, parent, supporter or club, we’d love to see your #ManahauMoment.
