Hi, welcome. Sounds like you really enjoy the gymworld.;) That is great. Glad your kids love it so much. I love the sport itself too and love to see my dd compete and train or hear her talk about what she has learned.

Just been so busy with things and in my head. Started going to the gym again and losing weight. Anyways, my dd's season is now also finished. She had her last competition on June 17th. She made regionals in May because she was 2nd in 1 of her 2 pre-competitions. So quite happy about that...

Put district final video in In my opinion she did really well. Of course I would say that, she is my dd, lol. But last she came 27th out of 36 girls. And now she came 18th out of 36 girls, and that with 2 falls. I will post her video here: http://youtu.be/c1_0g28sjyU Not sure if it will show...

As some of you might remember dd didn't have such a good 2nd meet to place for regionals. Ended up last, because of stuffing up bars. Well she thought because of that she wouldn't make regionals. But . . . . . . . . SHE DID!!!!! Because she placed 2nd at her 1st competition, she placed for...

Great that your dd is enjoying it so much more now.

With us in Holland I think it used to happen somewhat. But they put a stop to that now. They national gymnastics union has made a chart. This chart has got all the divisions, levels and ages on it. If you win a medal in the highest competition possible of a season, you have to move up a...

That is for sure. I told her, that is part of this sport. You can have good days, but when you need to show your stuff, it can go bad. It's already so wonderful she finally got to do the kip, she has wanted that for so long. And I hadn't seen it yet, and eventhough it was with bend knees, she...

Thanks. I saw her do it today for the first time, with warming up for the comp. Sadly she didn't get it for the comp. itself.:( But I am sure she will get better at it in the coming weeks.

And it didn't start well at all, resulting in ending last.:bawling: She started on bars and she finally mastered the kip last Wednesday. And she was being a little stubborn and adamant to put that element in. With warming up, she did it, but on the competition, it didn't work. Then she had to...

Thanks Deanna.

You know I will send you good luck, while sitting there watching and filming. You can do it girl!!!!:hug:

I think I applied to be a member, but not sure what it is about. Thought I could already post in Brag Alert anyway, or is it something completely different? Will try to find out tomorrow. Bed time here, waaaaay past actually.:zzz:

Great, she isn't on too much yet, got homework off course and I also check her things on internet sometimes, feel it is safer. But will let her know. She has 1 day of school to go and then a week break.:D

She is my daughter, Talitha and I thought I would surprise her and have people welcome her. She will tell something about herself soon. She had started a post, but when she went to post it, something went wrong. So I thought I would do this.:D

Welcome to this forum. Great that you took your daughter into this lesson and get her acquinted. I guess, yes gymnastics is a sport you get injured in, but I think it is like that with all sports. My daughter has done gymnastics for 7 years now and besides a bit of a sore knee for a few weeks...
