I think you should simply reply “Hi, I received your email on xx date and wanted to set up a time we can meet to discuss this. I’m free on at xyz time on xyz days. Thanks for your work with LT this year and I look forward to meeting with you ASAP to address your concerns.” (Try to give times...
10 minutes is also way too long. Research indicates there’s a neurological process where the muscles will tighten up in order to protect your body. Go to Shift Movement Science and you can read more. https://shiftmovementscience.com/ultimategymnasticsflexibilityguide/
It’s hard to remember because in that cycle they changed the music halfway through the cycle but you could use either the old or the new music. I want to say the video above was the first version of the music which started in 97, because I did level 5 at the beginning of that cycle, and that’s...
Reasons why some groups wouldn’t use a springboard:
-Falling backward onto it when trying to connect the squat on in level 5/6 directly to the kip.
-Coach needs to spot the dismount flyaway and the kids will need to pull the board back during warm up or the beginning of the exercise. Kids are...
This is good for a 5 year old. Not sure what else they could be expecting.
However, it is usually better to start in and X and do a side cartwheel back and forth. She should start and finish in the X then go back the other way. She should aim to stay in the bounds of the rectangle of the yoga...
This is a common technique but not one everyone uses. I wouldn't assume it slipped through the cracks but mostly likely her back handspring needs some improvement in order to connect it in harder series and so they're trying to make that change. I have seen gymnasts change it before and it's...
They most likely would put her in 3 which is probably a good thing. It will most likely be more conditioning etc and starting at 3 will give her time to build basics.
Nope not all of their 6s are even remotely that advanced, some needed a spot to warm up and complete their basic 6 bar routine. Also the scores are often unnecessarily inflated at our state meets. It's a big team with multiple programs so some are very good but winning level 8 is a stretch. I...
We don't have sectionals anymore and we also don't have any restrictions on whether a meet has to be in state to qualify to states. So if they compete in any sanctioned meet after the last state meet I guess, but generally if you were going to stay in a level your first meet wouldn't be before...
Okay sorry have to figure out how to actually reply. Anyway, I’m pretty sure even in your own state the compulsory season isn’t entirely in the fall, doesn’t GA have two compulsory state meets or something? I get in R8 a lot of the states have a fall states for compulsory and then spring for...
I would try to definitely put a lot of this out of your mind, if you worry about it it will be more likely to rub off on your child even if you don't mean for it to.
There's a big difference between random clips posted on Instagram and actually doing the compulsory level 2 routines correctly...
Maybe, but flipping a tsuk is really different than doing a roundoff over the mat table. It's like saying if you learned a roundoff fast you'll learn a roundoff back handspring fast. Could be, but not necessarily.
It's actually the opposite rule, but at the same time I kind of see where they're coming from in that they don't want any perception of gifts between individuals. Basically it's not "no gifts" but "don't single any individuals out" to avoid an environment where grooming goes undetected...
If her gut's telling her she's done she needs to stop. Those are pretty serious injuries. I would look into Olympic weightlifting, some track events, or springboard diving.
I think he's faking a lot of those falls for humor to be honest. If he never did gymnastics before at all, his reflexes or lack thereof are pretty remarkable for an adult. It's still nothing I would ever to recommend to anyone, but most of his falls look kind of controlled and he's fairly...
Unless they're talking about the total cost of a meet and doing it for charitable purposes - no? Generally even when meets are done for charitable purposes it's the net proceeds that are donated.
