    Parents How old was your child when you knew you had a gymnast?

    I signed my ds up to a rec class when he was 4 1/2... He could almost perfectly box split so I figured he had to do som thing with his flexibility...he was chosen for development there and then and is always bouncing around the house so figured he's just meant to be a gymnast, My odd is 8 now...

    Parents Please tell me my child isn't the only one...

    I got ds into gym when he was 4 1/2... He's always been 'that kid' that has energy by the bucket load and is ever satisfied with a task and he's always bored and never tired... Only sleeps 9 hours a night (he's forced back to bed but never sleeps) We were watching the Olympics and he was sat in...

We've said no tonight to a...
