head

This is going to sound weird, but I am wondering the opinions on people on this. Have you ever encountered an issue with head lice during gymnastics? At international gymnastics camp they don't check us for lice. Is it possible to get it from sharing the mats and floor that many people have put...

Hey yah'll! My name is Julie-ann and I'm the head coach of Shooting Starz Gymnastics. I coach 3s, 4s, & 5s but hopefully in a couple of years I'll have some optional girls! :D Write to me and I'll talk. Thanks

I just came home from the gym, and am feeling pretty low. I was told they did not want my DD to move from the level 3 developmental class to the level 3 competitive team. She turned 6 in December, and is doing well in her class. Sometimes she is a little goofy, and she has a stubborn streak...

Okay, I used to have 3 coaches, one of them just quit. I always realized that my head coach would be missing the meets that we prepared for for so long. I know that she has her own life, probably very busy, and I respect that. However, sometimes it greatly annoys me. The meet usually only goes...

I volunteer 4 days a week, 4 hours a day at a gym I used to coach at. Most people I tell this to, can't believe how generous this seems, especially because I drive an hour to get there. But I love the girls and I want to help them get better. I have been in the process of trying to open...

Our girls team program is in a major transition period having had a 100% turnover in the coaching staff and a major exodus of gymnasts. My dd has not been happy and has been asking to look at other gyms. Currently, there's a circling of the wagons and a bit of paranoia going around our gym. I...

Ok--I have a situation that I had a feeling was going to come but hoped wouldn't. DD had her first competition this past weekend and dd was the top finisher on her team. All the girls did really great for their first meet and I was really proud of how they were all very composed and well behaved...

There have been some posts regarding mental blocks and thought it would be useful to post this article that I found on a sports psychology website (www.headgames.ws): It's called: BREAKING DOWN THE BLOCK! (Athletes) Getting it, losing it, and getting it back again in gymnastics by Alison...

Hi. I'm really new to this site. A really wonderful someone recommended it to me via youtube message last night. I must say that my head is SPINNING! These forums have been very informative, yet they have me a little concerned... My little girl is 4. working on level 3, 4. I'm not really...

Just wondering where you should look when doing a flyaway?? I asked my coach this last night and she said no-one had ever asked her this before! she is going to find out, but I thought I would get some other opinions as well :)

Hey everyone, I was recently in a car accident about 3 weeks ago. Since the accident I have been getting extremley dizzy and have been blacking out quite a bit. I will just be laying down and all of a sudden the room will start spinning and I will turn over and hold my head just to deal with...
