ODD finally has one! Since she started gym, she has loved bars the most, and she has been bugging every coach she has ever had to teach her a flyaway. Right before she left for summer camp in mid July her coach taught her one, on pit bar and spotted on the real bars. She came back from camp this week and the coach asked her to do it the very first day back without a spot, and my DD refused. She said she needed one for the first try. When the coach refused to spot her, I thought that was it. No chance for L5 and a fear/block coming. Well, she did them. On the real bars. And she even stuck them. I am so happy for her to have reached her one goal that she started with. I can tell her to I'm blue in the face how far she has come in a year and a half of gym, but this is tangible to her, and she was so happy.
 
Awesome! Love those victories.
 
Awesome! Hoping mine goes unspotted on hers soon too. Such a big step on bars!
