    Splits question

    PB was working last night on her splits at the gym. Her center is nice (about an inch from the ground? It's come a LOOOOONG way in the past month or so). Right split is pretty bad and left split is "OK" but needs work. After practice coach was showing me WHY PB was having such issue with right...

    Books (fiction) for young gymnasts

    PB is a huge reader, but I've had some trouble finding books that weren't too "old" for her. The McKenna books are borderline too much for her (more, I think it just looks intimidating to her). Plus, I think it might be hard for her to relate to a 4th grader (PB is in Kindergarten, just a very...

    Rope Climbing?

    (Sorry if this is the wrong place to put this thread, but I'm never sure where to put stuff). DD just switched to a new gym in March, and has really been loving it - it's much more conditioning-based than skills-based like her old gym, and conditioning is what she needs to work on. Anyway...

    I tried out new Gym Hair over the weekend

    It took FOREVER, but because I can't braid to save my life, and DD's hair is SO thin and slides out of everything anyway, I figured I'd give it a go. She slept on it last night and it held perfectly! PS - I curled that pony within an inch of it's life :o and that's about 20 minutes later...

    Is there an "Intro to USAG" book or something?

    I know next to nothing about the sport in general, to be honest. I usually just ask DD was a skill is called, or whatever, but I figure I should try to learn a little bit about... stuff. So is there some sort of manual maybe, or a "Gymnastics for Dumb Parents" book? At this point, I don't even...

    NOs, IOs, AOs ... what do they all mean?

    I was reading the "report" from our gym's recent meet, and I have NO IDEA what the different groups are. DD is on Jr Pre-team, so we don't go to meets yet. I think NO means Novice Optional? But what about the others (IO, AO?). How are they different from "regular" levels? Why is this all so...

    Parents Please help me with sizing!

    I'm struggling to find a new leo for DD. She suddenly outgrow all she had from last year, and now that she's in PreTeam I need to stock up since I hate doing laundry. I need to buy online so I really hate to buy the wrong size and have to return. How accurate are size charts? I measured DD and...

    Hi from Pittsburgh!

    Hi Everyone! :D My name is Heather, and I have a 5.5 year old who just started in a pre-preTeam class. The regular preTeam class is 2.25 hours twice a week, so her gym made a pre-preTeam class last year that's 1.25 hours twice a week to get the girls used to the longer times. Taryn just started...
