If your son is also interested in gymnastics, both Lake Murray and the Charleston Twisters (Davita's Funtastic Gymnastics in Ladson) offer competitive boys' programs, as well as competitive girls' programs.

Yesterday the owner of my DD's dance and gymnastics center decided that we were having an open house in about 4 weeks. He asked that the team parents help out with the planning, but we have never been to one before. I have a few ideas, but I would like to hear recommendations on the do's and...

I have ordered quite a few for my DD from the next day shipment section. I always receive them within a couple of days. I had one issue with them a couple of years ago with a pin order that I never received, but the next day leo orders have been great.

Welcome to CB! I also have a Level 6 gymnast who I think is amazing :-) She is just starting her third year of gymnastics. Her first level 6 meet is in January. This group has been great, and they are very good with answering questions.

Welcome to the Crown of the Carolinas Here is the link to the event website. It shows some pictures of the facilities. Enjoy! I have only heard good things!

Wishing her the best of luck. I can't wait to hear how she does!

Women's - Long Sleeve Leotards This is the link to the leo she will be wearing for L6/7.

This was her Level 4 and 5 leo, and the next photo is the leo she will be wearing for L6/7. The picture is of the L6 from last year.

madigym00, it looks like we are going to be at 6 of the same meets. USAG Dec - Candy Cane Classic - Florence, SC Jan - Gamecock Invitational - Columbia, SC Jan - Charleston Challenge - Ladson, SC Feb - Tiger Paw - Clemson, SC Feb - Beach Break - Myrtle Beach, SC Feb - Charleston Cup -...

Yes, the AAU routines for Level 5 are exactly the same as the USAG. The only difference is that they can use an airboard instead of a springboard for vault. I have to agree about the level 5 music. Honestly, I can't wait until my DD reaches level 7. That way I can hear all kinds of music...

Sorry about the proud mom scream. I forgot to edit that out. LOL :)

We just got back from Disney. It was a nice place to have a meet. The girls got to compete and then go play at all the parks. The girls compete AAU after their USAG season is over. It is something fun they do over the summer. This year the AAU Age Group National meet was held at the ESPN...

That is awesome, especially since she is only 6. I remember how happy my DD was when she finally got hers. I think this is the hardest skill to learn for Level 4, so she is well on her way. How is your other DD doing?

I am sorry I am little late in getting my DD's AAU State meet results posted. It was much better than her USAG L5 State meet last month where she had 3 falls. This meet she managed to finish in the top 3 on every event. Vault - 8.65 3rd place (Her vaults are definitely improving, but she...

Last year our gym used "The Climb" by Miley Cyrus. It worked real well, but I am still trying to find something job for this year.
