year old

I admit it, part of the reason I take my kids to gymnastics is because that *I* want to play too. And our gym has a drop-in adult class, but I'm a little scared to go. I'm 38 years old, I can do a cartwheel and I'm in pretty good shape (I lift heavy weights at the gym) but I'm still nervous...

hey all, so i'm new here! we just started my 4 year old dd in a prek gymnastics class.. had her trial class yesterday and she did so good! maybe im just bragging but she listened so well and picked up right away to everything that they were teaching her to do.. so the start of the official...

Hello All! I'm a mother of an 11 year old son that just started gymnastics 9 months ago. We (our family) has been trying to convince him to try gymnastics for the last couple of years...he's short, muscular and has been jumping and flipping around the house since he was able to walk! However...

I'm wondering if there are any other's with Dd's that are testing as 8 yr old's this year and what level they are in ? Thanks!

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...

This could be weird. I was told by the coach today that my 4 year old is moving to level two class from her developmental team. she will be in class 2 days a week. They normally would move her to the next developmental team but they don't have enough kids. So this is what they are doing...

This is my gymnast and her bar set is a work in progress, but I am super stoked with her. So please be nice. Courtney Tsunoda level 9 gymnastics 10 yrs old - YouTube

My friend and I are just starting gymnastics at the ymca next month. We're both 15. I was wondering if we would be put in a level 1 group if we have a prep op program? My friend's mother talked to some lady at the ymca but I'm not sure if she works there or not. Anyhow, the lady said we have to...

My DD has her state competition next weekend and she is currently 15 years old. She always has problems with her hair. Her her is extremely long and thick and she refuses to cut it. When I do a bun on her she tells me it gives her head aches and a pony tail whips her in the face. The last meet...

One of the big talking points at DD's invitational this weekend was the participation of a 43 year old level 8 gymnast. Although I'm in awe at her ability to still compete, it makes me wonder about the USAG are rules. Are there no age restrictions? I want to say there's an age limit at our...

My dd made the switch from Level 3 to Level 4 mid-season. She had trained pre-team for a year but needed some extra time to get some skills. Level 3 was great; first or second AA. Now that she is back to Level 4 she is struggling. (Our gym doesn't have a Level 3 team). I believe she has so much...

My daughter just started gymnastics at the beginning of January and she is currently in a PreGym class for children ages 3 to 4.5 years old. She is VERY high energy and has been that way since birth, and because of that we haven't tried too many uber-structured toddler classes because she would...

Hi I am fairly new to the gymnastics world. My daughter started competitive at age of 8 years. She was mainly a dancer before..her coach (a great one) trained her at level 5 right away...she is now level 6 and doing really well. We recently moved to another state and her new coach is...

Hi everyone! My 5 y.o. daughter who is very active:p developed a love of gymnastics about a year ago. We are at the gym my younger sister competed at. It is a smaller, fairly laid back gym. We are actually pretty attached to her two coaches (very sweet girls). They have both indicated that...

My daughter is 6 and a half, on developmental team. She is not one of these fearless kids, and tries new things cautiously. For instance, she has been "almost there" on getting a back hip circle for AGES, but is afraid to do it. With a spot it's a two finger spot, barely anything, and she does...

My 4 year old will not leave gym in the gym. She keeps trying to do trucks at home on the furniture, at preschool in the gym, outside on the monkey bars.... Really everywhere she goes. Right now it's not stuff that us really dangerous....except the one time she did a handstand on the couch and...

Soooo, my DD hates underwear. She has never worn it under her leo. She is 8 1/2 and I am wondering, should I make her wear it? I noticed that ALL the other girls do but the coaches have never said anything to her about it. At this age does it matter? I have never noticed anything about how...

DD started taking classes about 6 months ago and absolutely loves it. She is a great listener, catches on quickly and you can tell she just loves it! Anyway-- obviously all coaches will be different, but at our gym some tend to lean on the side of recreation at this age, while others focus on...
