So I scheduled a private lesson with the coach for today to work on a few things but mostly so I could have a meeting with her and the owner without all of the other parents around. I pulled dd out of school 45 minutes early before any practices would be beginning. After her private I sat down...
So craziest couple days ever. After posting this and beginning to do some more research, my husband informed me last night that he received a job offer in another state and we are seriously considering the move. Although it means leaving our family and friends, it seems to be the best for his...
Earlier in the year she cried a couple of times but I do know at least one of those times was from being overtired and overly sensitive. Lately I don't know if she is just used to it but hasn't cried but also doesn't seem very happy about going to practice or happy after practice.
Thank you for all your insight. Before joining this gym we were at a gym that didn't do competitive gymnastics. A friend from her class last year recommended this gym as they do very well and produce many level 10 gymnasts. As a person who knew nothing about competitive gymnastics, why not go to...
Thank you for all your responses. The drive isn't too big of a deal to me. I have 2 year old twins who could take a class one of the nights we are there and have family in town to help out other times. It more my husband who doesn't understand the drive if there is a gym very close. I guess my...
I did not hear this comment myself. I asked her in car after practice about what the coaches said about the meet and her response was "she said we did bad, very very bad". As far as practice, I usually watch the last 20-25 minutes on occasion and you can hear the screaming in the waiting room...
I wouldn't say that I am making a life altering decision. I was simply asking a question about looking at other gyms that aren't belittling their athletes because they aren't doing things perfect. I want her to have fun and receive positive criticism. Our family is new to the sport and I have...
My DD is 6 yrs old and currently a lv 2. She is at a powerhouse gym in the state and all are expected to do well. We recently went to a meet and our girls were the only level from the gym that didn't take 1st place. It was a very difficult meet with great gyms from other states. All of the girls...
From what I have seen in our area is 5s would mean level 5 small gym and 5 l would be large gym. some meets break the levels depending on the size of the team. More so level 3 and 4 because team size very so much.
My dd started preteam at 4 1/2 and which was the beginning of summer and went 12 hrs. (4 days 3hrs each) It was intense but she did well. Now that school is in session she goes 6 hrs (3 days 2hrs each). She will compete level 2 next season.
