I teach dance and in the creavtive movement (3-5y/o) class, my "boss" has asked if I could incorperate a little gymnastics (I've done a little, not competative or anything) into class. It would just be easy floor stuff like forward rolls ect. we have mats. Do you have any tips/suggestions? Thanks :)

Let me know if something doesn't work.
I can give you the addresses if you need them.
The 2010 worlds gymnastics website had a contest and 25 people got scarves and a sticker and I won one! The grand prize was a polo (I think). I was supper excited when I saw it in the mail, I never win things like this :)
She looks good to me! If anything her split jump could use a little work, also her form (straight legs) on bars. I think her confidence on beam (tuck jump) is a little low. Just work on the splits and other stretching at home. :)
Even just start her in a Jazz, modern or Hip-hop (if they offer it at that age) class. My sister did jazz for 3 years before even thiking about ballet. See what the studio offers.
I only do gym once a week (recreational), but ballet is my 1st love as well. This is my 12th year dancing (ballet). The 1st thing I noticed was my lack of arm strength. :) Chin ups really help.
