17 and training level 8! I started gym at 12 and then competitive gym as a 14 year old level 5

For me, I am the complete opposite. I was always able to front tumble very well but, back tumbling is my Achilles heel. I competed this past season as a level 7 and honestly the first 4 meets of the year I didn't get credit for my back layout. It was frustrating and I put so much pressure on...

I feel like it really depends on the gym. I started even later then her (12 and that was the first time I did rec) and now 4 1/2 years later I'm a level 7 gymnast. Since you live in canada the next step before team at a lot of gyms is Interclub. Where they get to have their own routines and go...

Thank you so much for your help! This helps by adding another view on this, and makes me not feel so alone in this.

Hi, I know there are probably a million different topics already on this but, I fell like I am really stuck here. Whenever I first started competitive gymnastics I had mental blocks on pretty much everything (standing back handsprings/back tucks, round off back handsprings, front handspring...

The bead thing is defiantly different. At our gym when you get a new skill or medal in the all around you get a sticker on our giant sticker chart. I know I like it because it makes me feel like my new skill is noticed? But I say if Ragan likes the beads we shouldn't judge her about it. I think...

Could she maybe do a back tuck Korbut? Or back hand spring Korbut? Back walkover back tuck?

The intensity?

Well we do the hardest worker award, as well we do trophy a for everyone that has stuck beam all year.

I'm quiet tall (5'71/2) and around 110-115 pounds. I had done Giants in the strap bar for almost a 1 1/2 (first from swings, then from cast, then from my attempt at a cast to hand stand-me and handstand kinda are not friends) and two weeks ago a tried Giants on the pit bar for the first time and...

Do you know if where you live inter club would be an option? I would say it is the closest thing to the Canadian equivalent to Xcel. When I first started gymnastics (12) I was out right into what the call inter club, it is a very low stress environment where you learn you're skills at your own...

I don't know if it is my gym or where I live but we call them kabooms

This is crazy! I live in Canada and at leased where I live there is program you can enter to (for athletes) that can excuse you for gym or for practice/competitions. The only PE that is mandatory is PE 10. Other than that I have friends who haven't done PE since 5 grade but will have to next year

Trust me I had the absolute worst mental block on back walkovers on beam. I had it for 7 months! I just recently over came it and it was the best feeling in the world. What I did is once I got on the beam I would look and my hands and slowly go backwards, finally I managed to put my hands down...

Well for me now I have 5 ish, but 4 that don't fit and more that have been given away. But I won't wear Leo's any more until October since it's too hot.

Ours is 15% off every additional child, I am pretty sure that it apply a to team as well. But it is just for monthly tuition

We start at level 1 but the girls in level one go to two competitions at most (our gyms and another close one.)

Back walkover on beam, being killed/kidnapped

Mine would be to compete level 8. I'm 14 now and a level 5 (two and a half years of gym) I just really want to compete a flipping vault, and level 8 it always something I've look up two as my Olympics.
