Moving to a new gym

[j5flip]

Hey I was wondering if anybody could help me out on this one. I was wondering if anybody here has ever moved away to train, like Gabby did. I have been wanting to do this so I can improve my skills and go far in gymnastics and get better coaching. But my parents aren't cool with this idea, but I really need more time in the gym and coaches who know what they are doing in order to help me. If anybody has any advice is it welcome! Thanks

How old are you? What level are you? Have you talked to your coaches about training more?

Frankly I wouldn't let my kids move away to train either.

There's no way I would do it either....you need to try and get your parents on board to get you into a decent gym at this point and make some progress where you are. What Gabby Douglas did was the exception, and not the rule, and it worked for her but I wouldn't advocate a situation like that for the general gymnastics public...
