    Men If/when to look for a boys program?

    DS is 4yo and goes to the same gym as big Sis. He is in the kinder gym class for boys/girls. Unfortunately, this gym is a well-known WAG gym. There are a couple of boys classes, but I don't think anything above a "basic" level 1 or 2 class. So, I know that if DS were to continue with...

    Men Meet gifts for boys

    I am in charge of vending for our home meet. This year, for the first time, the meet will include boys as well as girls. Also for the first time, the location where we are having it will not allow food of any type on the floor (and therefore it can't be sold at our vending booth). In the...

    Men stretching for boys

    We were out of town last week, and our gym is closed this week, so my 6yo has had a 2 week break from gym. Before we left, I asked his coach if there was anything he should do at home. Coach said to stretch and work on press handstands. DS has been working on all three splits this week, but...

    Men How many future stars boys homeschool?

    The post on how many hours got me thinking. I wonder how many of the top finishers in the future stars 10/11/12/13 actually home school and focus solely on gymnastics? I know the a few kids who do homeschool and train 30 or more hours a week....8 years and up. Just wondering if it is the norm.

    Coaches Coaching Boys in this new Era

    So as we all know boys (especially in the younger years) have a much shorter attention span, and a much greater need to burn off energy than girls do. It has been this way since the beginning of time. However, it seems it is getting worse and worse as time goes on for both genders. With all...

    Boys gymnastics in the UK

    I can't recall seeing any posts about the boys competitive system in the UK. I have a little man in a development squad. He's too young to compete at the moment and I'm perfectly happy watching him trying really hard and gaining confidence. He's made a sudden leap in progress in the last month...
