    Parents Looking for some advice / feedback on some questions regarding Level 2 Gymnast

    I can totally appreciate that. That sounded like what the Pre-team was like last year. Lot of young girls with little attention spans barely able to do skills. My daughter was so bored. I'm def not trying to sound all "my kid is the next..." I can just tell her motor and drive at her age is...

    Parents Looking for some advice / feedback on some questions regarding Level 2 Gymnast

    Thank you all for your replies!! They are all very helpful and packed with great advice! I always felt 9 hours for my daughter was a lot but 6 hours is all that is required. She chooses to go the 3rd day herself. We let her decide if she wants to go or take a break and go do something else...

    Parents Looking for some advice / feedback on some questions regarding Level 2 Gymnast

    So my daughter has been at Pre-team at her gym and was moved up to team before the summer. She turned 5 in April and has been doing 3 days a week 3 hours a day since moving to level 2 team in July. I feel she has improved but I see the push to learn new skills more than trying to perfect...

    Parents Help with asking the right questions

    I truly appreciate your response, and I want to clarify that my main concern isn't about when she competes—whether it's now, later, or at any point in the future.

    Parents Looking for some help regarding preteam & privates

    Thank you all for the replies and the advice. This has been super difficult to navigate because i know NOTHING about this sport and how things work. If this was something more in my wheel house like Football, or Baseball I'd have a bit more knowledge. Being a dad of a fierce young lady is...

    Parents Looking for some help regarding preteam & privates

    Thank you for that I appreciate your reply and I will certainly look up the gyms in my area at the website you provided. The Gym we are at now in now way every said anything about private lessons. They just offered her pre-team after 2 classes as they can see she is so far ahead of the other...

    Parents Looking for some help regarding preteam & privates

    I appreciate the reply! I am so new to this and this world is so foreign to me that I do not even know how to look up all that info about the level gymnasts they have or how to find competition results or even what competitions the gym has competed in? We have at least 8-10 gyms in our area so...

    Parents Looking for some help regarding preteam & privates

    My daughter has been doing the basic tumbling classes since she was 3, once a week type deal. The class was very basic and didn't really teach her all that much. She excelled on her own just watching others, youtube clips etc and began to mimic what she saw. She started doing Cartwheels...
