    Parents Summer gymnastics sleepaway camps vs. regular team training

    Hi there, my 6yo daughter is new to team, having just joined DP L1 (training only, not competing yet). Our family is starting to make plans for summer and my daughter is asking if she can do a week or two of gymnastics sleepaway summer camp (e.g., IGC, where she did a “mini camp” last summer and...

    Parents Videos of current DP compulsory routines?

    That’s a good point I hadn’t thought of! L1 is indeed only training only at her gym. :)

    Parents Videos of current DP compulsory routines?

    Is there a website or YouTube channel that has videos of the current USAG compulsory DP routines on all 4 women’s events? My L1 daughter wants to watch them. I found a few one-off videos on YouTube but I’m not sure that they are the right ones. (She says some are a little bit different from what...

    Parents Summer 2026 camps

    She did the two 3-day “mini camps” (the first as a day camper, the second as an overnight camper) and loved both. The general area has several hotels/motels, resorts w/ water parks, and rental properties. We stayed at a rental home with good internet access so I was able to work & attend zoom...

    Parents Summer 2026 camps

IGC has both sleepaway and day options, and OGC is day only. She had a...

    Parents 4 Year Old Gymnast Advice

    This is a really interesting thread! I can totally hear the arguments for letting this little girl be a kid, try other sports, etc. At the same time, if she joins a team, at some point she’ll start training more hours, right? My daughter started training 1h/wk rec at 4.5yo, then did 2-4h/wk rec...

    Women Daughter Discouraged because of gymnastics videos

    To the OP, that sounds so tough! My daughter is too young for social media but has been really enjoying a lot of gymnastics content from other sources that depict (at least to my understanding!) more age-appropriate skill development trajectories, like the series “My Perfect Landing” and...

    Parents Gateway skills for DP Compulsory Levels?

    LOL not to worry about me attempting to teach her any skills at home. I have never done gymnastics myself and wouldn't know the first thing about how to do any of these skills! But yes it's a great point to avoid any kind of pressure in my attempt to support her and I will absolutely follow...

    Parents Gateway skills for DP Compulsory Levels?

    Thank you so much for all of your responses! It's really helpful to hear everyone's perspective and that the ROBH, front hip circle, front handspring vault are important differentiators for L3. Her gym actually just announced a monthly BH clinic that I can ask her if she wants to try. And...
