We have had success with buying a one night stay at water parks (sleeps 6) and selling raffles for $5.00 a piece. We have made quite a bit that way. Also if your gym does exhibitions for rec and team those are always a great place to sell quite a bit in addition to the ones families sell.

My daughter's coach recently shared that she thinks it will be difficult for my dd to do beyond level 8 due to her being too flexible. I don't understand the mechanics but she relayed that the muscle contraction needed for higher level vaults and the tumbling. She did say that dd has surprised...

Just took a few days off. Some of the post missed the big picture... Obviously I must not be a good story teller to forums.

You got me as well as a few others. Thank you!

You nailed it!!

Glad you could see it for what it was. A growth experience for us both. DD was in no way disrespectful, just frustrated when she spoke. I quickly called that put. Coach and I have good relationship, comfortable in speaking openly and she too gets my excitement in watching my kid further own her...

Hi loved your take. The only thing off, is the coach gets my kid (she had not been telling coach she wanted me out though). I think it finally became clear to DD that night and she talked to me. Coach also gets me and my humor and knew I too could hear her comment as well.---

I will stay with my original post ending. Yipee!!!

I think you are missing the bigger picture... Or not alluded to on my part. Several parents sit there day in and day out. I have a great relationship with the coaches and trust them. My kid has been even more engaged about gym and life in general. I feel good about it and a step in the ability...

Yes so two weeks ago my DD kicked me out from watching her in practice. What a great bonding and growth experience it has been for BOTH of us. Here is the history for those interested: DD trains 4 days a week (Total 16 hours). Typically I am in the gym 2 days a week (about 1.5 hours). I...

:) It is an amazing sport. Dunno I just asked my daughter left or right kartwheel. She said right. I said do you land on your right or left hand first..she said right. Love your info still but sticking with in my daughters case how the OT helped. Too bad you weren't there to see it with your...

... Thanks dunno for the reply.. Love how you described the scenario and how back walkovers typically occur. That's why I called it seeing is believing. I def. thought her issue was fear prior. I am just a parent and poorly articulate the ins and outs and mainly pay the fee and cheer her on...

Ok.. Dunno Your last paragraph is not a question but seems like a statement that my reporting of the events is inaccurate. According to you her hands were corrected and that solved the issue. I understand your concern that you don't want others chasing hip adjustments instead of proper hand...
