Thank you so much for the information. She can do a clear hip (not to a hand stand yet) and has a straight leg soul circle. She is also close to her stalder. That is interesting about no giant and doing a higher level. Her coach said she won’t move up until she has the giant. She has...

Can anyone advise if you can do a pirouette in level 7 bars? My daughter has beautiful bars but is very scared of a giant. She has a pirouette and a pack by herself but wont do a giant. So due to this she will be limited in her level. Hoping she can use her pirouette in her bar routine since...

We have been at our same gym since day one. We were very lucky and picked a great gym from the start. My daughter has done gym for 3 years and is traning level 8. We have elites so she can stay here as long as she likes and we have no plans to leave. We love our coaches :)

]If you have Olympic talent go elite. If not stay 10 to get a NCAA scholarship and not destroy your body before college But that is my question...how would you know? I have never been around gymnastics so I dont knw much about the sport.

Thanks for the info. I have seen the elite compulsory routines only a few times from the other girls in the gym. I think she will do well. I think if she decides this is not for her it will be due to bars. Her coaches are very patient with her and are aware of her fear for bars. We are very...

She will be this summer. She is level 8 but starting to train for elite testing. I think it will be a very difficult traning for her but she has asked to try it.

My daughter will go Monday through Saturday 8-1 and then on Tues and Thur 4:30-7:30. Two days a week in the morning they have swim, track, and then gym. I will be interested to see how she does.

I agree. I think where she will have a difficult time is when my younger son has events. We have told her when he has games and what not we will be with him watching and help support him. We have also explained that she will have a lot of alone time at the gym with out us there. She seemed...

In regards to the schooling… I have inquired several times and the school will not modify her schedule until 6 grade. She will be going into 5 grade next year so we have a year and a half before they will work with us. Our coaches strongly prefer you do homeschool so they have the one on one...

Thank you everyone for your advice. We talked with our DD last night and told her we will let her train this summer with the elite girls and evaluate in Sept to confirm if she enjoyed it. We told her that if she wants to continue down this path we will give her one full year to really go for...

Her coaches defiantly have the ability. We currently have several Elite girls in our gym and we have many other girls on the elite track who will test next spring at WOGA Classic. They have stated they would really like for her to try to do level 8 and 9 this coming up season. To myself...

She says she 100% wants to do elite....however understanding she is 10 I dont know if she really understands what that means at the end of the day. I do understand the melt downs, she did go trough a bit of a hard time last summer. I think it was due to going from level 4 to 7 in about a year...

My daughter is 100% on board and has been asking for about the last 9 months. She was devastated when we told her no last year. Our gym is much different than most, our level 10's train the same amount as our elites in the summer. All the girls level 8 and above will train 34 hours a week...

Hello, I found chalk bucket by surfing the web trying to learn more about gymnastics. I personally never did gymnastics so this is all new to me. My daughter has done gym for about two and a half years. She skipped level 4, did a year of 5, did two meets of 6 in the spring to qualify, and then...
