Hey All,
I just joined this site (obviously) and each page keeps bugging me to introduce myself and make my first post, so here I go.
I have been involved with gymnastics for the past 15 years of my life. Practicing and competing for 13 and coaching for 6. I have competed for a private club, for high school and for the YMCA (and for a gym run by the military). I have coached for the YMCA, a couple of private clubs and a club run by the military, and now I am coaching tumbling for an All-star cheerleading team (nothing but tumbling). I have coached up to level 9, but I prefer levels 6-8.
I am always looking for new tumbling drills because (no offense to any cheerleaders) the cheerleaders I coach just chuck skills and they are super scary sometimes and dangerous to spot.
I think everyone no matter what age should be able to participate in a sport they love, and I competed until I turned 20. I missed last season because I didn't have a gym and will miss this season because I have no money. Sad. Maybe next year!
