She loved it. The coach was excited to have her and she will be starting next week.

My DD left the gym just one month before yours did. She has been so much happier. She picked up diving and so far, so good. She’s liking competing for her high school, and is making pretty good progress. She thinks she’ll continue to practice/compete club diving as she’s worried she’d be bored.

I thought for sure her diving teammates would try to talk her into joining the high school team for the winter season (3 of them compete), but so far she’s holding as a firm “no”. At the end of it she was just so turned off of the sport.

She’s also for the first time been social with her school friends, and that’s been lovely to see. Her body is enjoying the lower impact so, so much.
