    New compulsory music for USAG L1-6 with video walk through.

    Link Removed While I like some of the new themes in the L5 and L6, I still find it a bit choppy to me. I do like the L6 more but perhaps I'm so used to the old music ( I like the L6 music and can deal with the L5 music grudgingly ) I don't like some of the pauses and I wouldn't want to teach...

    Coaches Episode 2: I hate USAG girls compulsory vaults

    Back when I posted my thread about how I hate hollow casts, Rick McCharles posted about my post on his blog. A heated discussion followed in the comments section, in which I briefly touched on similar issues I have with the progression used by USAG to teach a front handspring vault. So I'm going...

    Parents How large are your compulsory teams

    and have you ever had a situation where you child was ready to move up but there weren't enough slots? My DD is at tryout camp this week and I think that she has a good chance of making the team. I think that she would make the team no problem if they weren't under a numbers crunch. Our level 4...

    Change to compulsory routines this year?

    Another mom in the gym just told me that all of the compulsory routines and music are going to change at the end of this year. I thought these routines stayed until 2013. Are the routines or music changing this year? Thanks for the info.

    Coaches Full Floor Time for Compulsories

    How much FULL floor time do the compulsory teams get at your gyms? Not combined. For example, how much time does the Level 5 team get on FULL floor per week. Not all the compulsory teams added together.
