    Parents Bridgeway Academy

    Oh boy! I know I posted before asking about A Beka. A friend just told me about Bridgeway Academy, and I have started looking into it. It looks good, but I have to admit I have said that before. Has anyone used BWA? If so, I would like to hear your thoughts and/or experiences. Thank you so much!

    Parents X-Brace

    Has anyone had any experience using the X Braces? DD is experiencing heal pain, and she has asked to get these heal braces. It seems that a couple of her teammates use them, and they say they work very well for them. I just want to get a more wholistic view if possible. These are the ones we...

    WAG what is going on with Gymnastike

    I just have to ask. What is wrong with this site? I watched the poll for top level 10 team and have seen the skewing of scores. Some were in the teens and now down to single digits...this before I see Gedderts got out . Good for them. I voted for Texas Dreams if it matters! And we don't even...

    WAG KT tape

    I am not asking for medical advice...DD has seen a pt and has an ortho appt. in less than a week. I just want to know if the KT tape that is sold in retail stores is really as good as they market it. Has anyone used or had a DD/DS who has used it and found relief? Thank you!

    WAG Yurchenko Vault?

    I am just trying to understand. Is there a direct connection between the handspring vault and the Yurchenko vault? In other words the only way a kid will have a dynamic yurchenko vault is if they have an equally dynamic handspring vault. I have heard conflicting ideas and I am just trying to...

    Parents TOPS Question???

    Okay. Let me preface first that my DD is not a TOPs girl. She is at a new gym that does do TOPs , but Dd is not involved. And let me say that my question is not in regards to any of the girls or parents at DD's gym either. What I want to know is Why do so many parents put so much stock in this...

    WAG Prayers needed

    I know we should keep religion out of CB, but a sweet little gymnast was involved in a very serious car accident last Thursday. This little amazing gymnast just found out that she made it to TOPS A camp! This was her very first year testing. Please I ask that you say a prayer for this...

    Parents Abeka advice

    Hello. C is homeschooled now going on year two. We switched to the Abeka curriculum. I really would like to hear all the positives and negatives about curriculum. I have read many hs blogs that rate Abeka and other programs, but I'd just like to hear the ideas here from parents who have tried...

    WAG How old is a child expected to take things seriously at every practice?

    I just had a mommy meltdown with DD today due to her excessive talking with her friends at gym. Let me preface my situation. I am NOT a cgm who pushes my DD to perform. I love my children regardless of what they do. But sometimes, and it is usually tied to when I have to write a big check to...

    WAG Secret Classic Vault Question

    Does anybody know why only Mikayla Maroney and I think Mikayla Skinner were awarded medals when clearly others vaulted as well? Vault only went out two places while bars, beam and floor went out eight I think. Just asking because we all wondered if we missed something. Thanks!:confused:

    WAG Switch Leap Deductions??

    This is just for my knowledge. I was going to ask a friend who judges, but I feel like I am bugging her so much with questions. I know I should get that book...I think DD has improved so much, but I noted the low, front leg on her sl. How much of a deduction is that really? She has to learn...
