Amanda, Don't worry, I did not take it personal.
I do not have any gymnastic exp. so that is why I ask lots of questions and
watch the girls in the classes instead of being on the internet the 2 hours I am there.
I want to know/learn and be informed.
Yes, you are correct - a quality...
Amanda, No I do not have any gymnastic exp....that is why I ask alot of questions.
I did not take it personally. This is why I want to know. If I am spending my hard earned $$, then I want
it go to good use/proper skilled use.
I know what they can do, just being a novice watcher...but yes...
Bog...I have that report card in front of me....and I have used it to eval the girls...that is why I am confused why gym 2 says they are behind.
This is where i feel the bad blood between the 2 gym may come into play....??!!??
MD State Gym Girls Gymnastics Level 2 Curriculum - YouTube
If this is truly a level 2 - my children and do all these moves....
Like I said, I am just wondering if the gym 2 owner down-played my childen's skills during their test session?
What do you think?
Gym # 1 does "fun meets" for level 3-4 and then competes at L4 and above. DD #1 states that she wants to "go to the Olympics" but I have to take her to a local meet so she can see what I is actually all about. So, I still have some homework to do. But I do have to think and figure out...
Yes, gym 1 does have a competition team for girls and boys.
the USA gymnastics level 1-4 althlete report card which i am reading now...my girls can do all the level 1 and 2 stuff
bridge kick-over 70-80 % of the time. hip circle 50-80 % of the time.
Thanks everyone for your advice.
Which is one other issue I have. After talking with them...they tell me, "we were talking about what to do with your
girls. We feel they would be challenged more if we move them."
The girls go 4 hours a week....2 sessions for 2 hours each time.
SOrry...but when I type too much the website...
How imparative is it to do a cartwheel from the right side and from the left side?
I have one girl who is a "righty" and one who is a "lefty". They were told the need to know how to do them from both sides.
Thanks
Have been going for 4 years...they are in Level 2 - Developmental.
The new gym states they are between a level 1-2. Says they the girls lack strength and flexability. I had them tested at the 2nd gym because I wanted to switch them.
The owner of the 2nd gym used to work at my gym go there...
Sorry....I wrote in Word...cut and pasted it...and still does not post correctly.
When I type...my computer says the website locks up and has to "recover" page and losses all data!
SOrry - frustrated!
