    Parents Tumbling - Switching from cheer to gymnastics & how far do you drive to get to your gym? What's more

    Where I live the price is around the same. Having had one daughter cheer and one do gymnastics by far the gymnastics is more time consuming. When my daughter did All Star (Competes for school now) she practiced 6 hours a week. My 10 year old training level 8 practices 18 hours plus.
