We moved last year and found a gym she liked that was close, only to find it wasn't the place for us... We moved gyms and she had her best season but go talk to as many as possible talk to the parents and let your kiddo find the place for her... I have never met a gym that won't let you practice...
I haven't posted in awhile... But last I posted I was concerned about the gym we were at, and thinking about investigating other gyms because my daughter had lost her sparkle! She wasn't coming home energized like she used to...
We did a few trial practices around town, nothing that impressed...
I told DD I was going to come in late today (she rides a bus from school to gym) and watch for a few minutes before pick up...
Hysteria ensued... I guess I set a bad example over the summer, when I would go and stay the whole time, usually I was the only parent in the viewing area, and I used...
It's been a rough summer... The HC just came back to the gym after graduating college, it is her families gym... The girl who was coaching left suddenly so she wasn't planning on coaching yet but is and is amazing, my dd loves her...
My dd trained with the level 4 group all summer, but we...
I can stay away some, but what bothers me most is this gym has an excellent program, it also bothers me that the developmental team parents are present and I hate to see some of these parents scared off, by this nastiness, I actually think one of the parents might be leaving she just messages me...
I am at my breaking point... Sitting here at practice about to lose it...
So last week we lost one of our 2 coaches, (he tore his ACL, and had a salary issue) and the other parents were very upset that he wasn't coaching ... I mean it's this mans health...
Ok this is a level 3 team and the...
My daughter is training 4/5 and is 9 we are going to miss almost 2 weeks of practice, her coaches just told her to stretch everyday work splits EVERY day, and as long as she is active not to worry... But I don't think it will be a problem, she will be one week at horse camp and one week at...
I speak to coach about skills only during private lesson times, or if I was present at practice only if I noticed a problem , (ie, she was not doing something, bathroom break during a harder skill, that went unnoticed by coach) other than that I let them come to me
The beam dismount she was just taught was handstand, pick up hand turn sideways, then turn sideways and snap down...
Her vault is front handspring over vault, but. My DD insists it's a handstand over the vault table, she still doesn't see it as a handspring... Lol have to video it for her
It didn't make the move this time, it has been lost but It was basically a line, measured for length and width the size of the beam, I used pretty tape, in neon colors that made seeing your landing easier, we put it on our mat that we had here at home.
Basic directions
Get the exact beam...
I just wasn't used to seeing, coaching demo-ing BHS and vaults but my DD seems to love it, they were working on swinging and re gripping on the bar over the pit, and my DD has now challenged her coach to see if she can pull a giant, I guess we will see at practice... She told DD she would tell...
