My youngest dd got her pullover today (from only having tiptoes on the floor), she had to pull up and the lift her knees over, she did it a couple of times, she is also working on her back hip circle and is close to doing one on her own. Dd is also improving her straddle dismount and is know working on doing a squat on and jumping to the high bar.
Dd has had a growth spurt recently and the coach noticed it and said that she is glad dd has got her splits down as it can be hard to gain flexibility after a growth spurt - I didn't realise this.
They have started to work on their floor routine for their competition later on in the year, it will be the first floor routine with music that they have learnt.
Dd has also learnt a front hand spring on the trampoline and also a front somersault on the trampette without a spot.
Dd is now halfway through her summer holiday and her summer training session and they have a weeks break next week as the gym is closed for maintenance, both dd's are going into the gym for one day during the break to help empty and refill the pit - they want to see what is in the bottom of it and how deep the pit is.
