I tried to edit my post, but couldn't. My daughter is 13, but has small calves. She's been wearing this size for the last 4 years. She gets pretty bad shin splints, so that is why she wears them. Zensah has several fun colors to choose from.
I posted a very similar question back in early September. I had so many reasons for moving my daughter from one gym to another, but she did not want to move. She was pretty upset the first week and resigned the second week. By the end of the month, she even realized the move was a good thing...
Thank you to everyone who provided insight. I know it will take my daughter longer to completely adjust, but at least she has mentioned a few positive things about the new gym. I know she would go back to the old gym in a heartbeat though. I just hope in 6 months or even a year she thanks me for...
As parents we had to make this choice. There was a lot of external pressure from the coach. The way things were worded, etc. She had to interpret what the coach said to something positive. Not easy for anyone to do that, especially a 12 year old. I don't think she'll have that same pressure at...

Thank you for letting me know. I have a feeling it will take a longer amount of time then. So sad. It is going to be tough watching. We factored in so much when making decision to leave. We knew it was going to be tough for her, but now I am just concerned with the length of time it will be tough.
There were several reasons for the move. All the reasons individually were not enough to move her, but together we felt the move was warranted. It was an extremely tough decision. We did move her and she started the new gym. Although she seemed fine in practice from the little that I saw, she...
My daughter just moved to a new gym. She did not want to move, but my husband and I felt it was the best choice. She is 12 and competed L9 last year. For those of you who moved your reluctant gymnast to a new gym, how long did it take them to adjust?
