I'm very new to gymnastics. My DD is 7 & just started to workout with the Excel Silver team at our gym but they are using it as a pre team for her (I'll get to that later).
My DD flew through the rec. levels at our gym, went from new level 2 to 4 in less then 6 months & only 3 hours at the gym per week. She's a beast! They finally moved her on to the excel silver team and are using it as a pre team because they don't currently have a JO pre team. I wanted her put with the current level 4 team but they won't. The excel team is much older 10-13 yrs old & the level 4 team is closer to her age. She has her ROBHBH, FHS, FHSSO, front & back walk overs. On the bars she has her pull over, back hip circle, working on her front hip circle. Her front handspring vault is pretty good. Beam is her worst but she can do a cartwheel, just not consistently yet & handstand 1/4 dismount is coming along nicely. She's only been working out with the silvers for a few weeks and is only getting 4 hours of gym time per week and they are currently getting ready for states. I really like the coaches at this gym but I'm wondering if I should be looking else where or should I give it a couple of months? Any and all advice appreciated...
