    YMCA Nationals 2009

    I took this year off, so I won't be competing in Nationals this year, but my goal is to make it back for next year (PA).Is Phoenix, PA near any major cities? When it was in Hatboro, we drove down to Washington D.C., and that was really fun. When it was in Hanover, we obviously spent time at...

    YMCA Nationals 2009

    I know... I really liked Tacoma, though. I LOVED Seattle, and now want to move there some day. There was a lot more to do there than in Seattle. The only thing we really did in Wisconsin was go to the Mall of America (we could have stopped at the Wisconsin Dells, but didn't). Someone at my...

    Introducing Me....

    Hey! I'm Angie (ToeTheLine). I've posted a couple times, but I still feel relatively new here. I did gymnastics for eleven years (I'm currently seventeen) and have coached for two and a half years (mostly levels 2-4, but also some level 5 and pre-school), and am currently trying to decide if...

    gym journals

    We do something like this for our most advanced group of pre-schoolers. We essentially made a chart with a list of skills we hoped they would get during the year, and then made an effort to focus on just one or two of those skills every practice so they would get the skills relatively quickly...

    Skills to improve jumps?

    We do a lot of plyometric-type work outs. Just put a couple spotting blocks and/or panel mats in a line on the floor/runway/anywhere there's space about two feet apart, maybe some hula hoops to jump through or across so you've built a type of obstacle course. Then, you're going to go through...

    Thanks to everyone for replying! Phoenix Penn..... 'Cause we haven't been to Pennsylvania enough the past five years or so, lol. First Hatboro, then Hanover, now Phoenix. I'm starting to feel like Pennsylvania is my second home.

    Looking For Gymnastics Stories....

    Hey all. I currently have a creative writing elective at school, and my teacher let us design our own final for this semester (within reason, of course :)). I decided to write a short story collection, focused on gymnastics since it's been such a big part of my life for so long. Now I just...

    Club vs. HS Gymnastics

    I did high school gymnastics for two years, took a year off high school (and part of the year off club), and am considering doing both this season. My club coach was very nice and allowed me to to high school gymnastics, even though because of high school rules I could then only do 3 club meets...

    Level 8 Conditioning

    Hi there. I'm not 100% sure that this is the right forum for this question (this is my first post), so please tell me if there's a better place for this. I moved up to Level 8 in September. Unfortunately, I had a bad case of shin splints and some back pain, and had to take a few weeks off to get...
