Hi All, I am new to CB and this is my first online post ever. I hope I am doing this correctly.
My DD is 8 and is a level 3. Her team is competing and she is doing well. She absolutely LOVES gymnastics and would be in the gym 24-7 if she could. Right now it is just 6 hours a week. Some of the lv3 moms have mentioned sending their girls away to gymnastics summer camps.
Being new to the sport, at what age/level is it appropriate to go to one of these summer camps? I am a little nervous about sending my 8 year old away to another state. I am also curious about the amount of supervision and guidance the girls of that age receive. Do they mix with older girls? Boys?
Will my child be at a disadvantage if she does not attend one of these camps?
What are some good camps?
Can anyone enlighten me on this subject? Pros, cons, pitfalls.
Thanks so much!
