Anyone hear about Lexie's recent gym switch to Perfection? I saw MLT's post the other day on facebook saying that Lexie had decided to leave because she needed a change. Is Perfection equipped to deal with elites? What do you guys think about her recent switch? Is it for the better or for the...

Since the beginning of last summer i have been working BHS stepout on beam. I have made absolutely no progress since then. If a coach is spotting me, i get my hands on, my bhs is fine. If a coach isn't spotting me ( not even spotting me, literally just standing there for support with there...
