    Parents DD's great difficulty with facing the correct direction

    She is 5 and 9 months, in gymnastics for 2 years. Her coach even said to me, "I've never seen a child so confused about directions (which way to face)." Personally, as previously stated, I think this is a learning disability showing. If it is an LD, her ability to differentiate from left to...

    Parents DD's great difficulty with facing the correct direction

    I will preface this by saying that we suspect DD is dyslexic. It is in our family, so wouldn't be a shocker - and this difficulty with understanding directionals is tied to dyslexia. DD is in a developmental class and does extremely well in the class. But she continues to struggle so much...

    Parents please help me with scheduling

    Next year, if all goes well, I will have one daughter (5) on preteam and one daughter (4) in the developmental class. The preteam meets T and Th and the developmental class meets on W. I really can't make it to gym 3 days a week next year. The following year, we will be able to. I am trying...

    Parents How would you handle with 5 yo?

    I don't think DD has a problem with the conditioning per se. I think she would appreciate it more if she could do it in shorter bursts.

    Parents How would you handle with 5 yo?

    Thank you for the replies. Just to clarify, this is really the PRE PRE team. It's before the pre team. There are a total of 5 girls in the class. Only 1 girl always sits still and does whatever the teacher asks. The others lose focus every now and then. DD is definitely the worst though...

    Parents How would you handle with 5 yo?

    Hi all, Many of you gave great advice with my DD. A few months ago we were looking for a new gym. We found one. Had my then 4 yo evaluated and they put her on pre pre team. She's had her 4th class today (she is 5 now). The coach said dd complains about the conditioning and doesn't like it...

    Parents who to evaluate my daughter

    So we are checking out new gyms this summer. Currently my daughter is 4 but her current gym has her working with girls who are 5-7 years old because DD has mastered the skills and because there is no pre team or anything to put her into. When I call gyms, they offer to have her try a class...

    Parents help orient a new family to gymnastics, please

    One more question: I went to mymeetscores.com Is this the most comprehensive website? I am searching gyms and I know they are leaving out meets on this site. I'm not getting the full picture of each gym.

    Parents help orient a new family to gymnastics, please

    So an update and another question. Recently, we checked out another gym that will be offering camp sessions this summer. The gym we are currently with, will shut down for a bit this summer, and DD doesn't want to take a long break this summer. So we went to this other gym and a coach...

    Parents help orient a new family to gymnastics, please

    Thank you for the feedback! Can you share with me what is not developmentally appropriate for her to work on? She is in a class with kids who are 2-3 years older and I want to make sure that she is not doing something that she shouldn't be working on. (Or should I just trust the coaches that...

    Parents help orient a new family to gymnastics, please

    We are a family of 7. DH has 2 teens from previous marriage. We have 3 littles ones together (DS8, DD4, DD2). DD4 started gymnastics last year at 3. She has quickly progressed to working in the 6-7 year old class. We are at a satellite location of a USAG gym. The coaches are very excited...
