    Parents What do you do when your gymnast is completely worn down?

    I had this issue with Dani when she was about 12 as well. She tries to do some homework at school (sometimes the teachers give them a few minutes at the end of class to get a head start on homework) or she brings her homework to dance and does some during breaks. Is there any time after school...

    Parents Update on what Dani's been up to lately - Dance Team :)

    Thanks everyone! She is coming along nicely :). Since she is a "lefty" in dance and with her cartwheels and roundoffs, but right-handed with writing, she has found that she has to learn both ways because in dance they turn and do most skills on the right. So that is the biggest challenge with...

    WAG Open gym this weekend- awesome achievement & nasty fall

    I totally agree with the others--you need to be really careful at open gyms. On of my DD's teammates (who is a very experienced Level 6/7) was just doing tap swings at a practice where she peeled and landed on her neck. She was fine (just sore) but was out of gym for a couple weeks. I know the...

    Parents First Meet Back from Injury

    WOW! Sophia looks great!!! You would never guess that she had such a serious injury that required her to be out for 3 months. I guess all that summer swimming, camping and hanging with cousins was the perfect thing for her recovery!! Sometimes taking a break is the best medicine. Best of luck to...

    WAG Does age make a difference in scores?

    Wow! I didn't realize that there was such a difference in the physical appearance of Level 4's and Level 5's! My dd was often mistaken for a Level C when she was only a Level B so I totally get what you are saying!

    WAG Update on Dance (It has been almost a year without gym)

    Nicci--believe me she still has trouble getting rid of all the old gymnastics habits that interfere with ballet! Her biggest problem is keeping her ribs closed and taming that big arched back. So, hang in there and keep practicing!!!!

    WAG Update on Dance (It has been almost a year without gym)

    You are sooo right madigym00!!! I rarely get nervous watching her dance but during gymnastics meets I was a nervous wreck for her!!! I feel like dance is way more soothing and gymnastics is just anxiety provoking (at least for me)!!!
