    Parents Feeling Discouraged

    Hi everyone. I'm in a sort of predicament regarding my daughter and her gym. She has 2 great coaches (personality) but they aren't the strongest in skill teaching (I haven't seen much progress from any of the other girls in almost 2 months). There is another coach that sometimes does extra...

    Parents Feeling discouraged

    My daughter has been in gymnastics since she was two but we went through quite a few gyms before we found the one we are at now which we’ve only been at for 4 months. I felt like people were just running her through classes and not really focusing on every single child and their abilities and...

    Parents Getting discouraged

    They've been out of gym for over 21 weeks. 21 weeks!! Here in Michigan, gymnastics facilities are still not allowed to open. DD17 has been doing outdoor conditioning for a couple of months with her team, but it just isn't the same. This is her senior year. School just went remote. XC...

    WAG Being discouraged about no improvement

    Hello everyone! I'm an 18 years old girl an yes I'm still trying to learn gymnastics. I obviously don't want to get really far in the sport but I really love gymnastics and I love doing it so why not!

    Coaches Discouraged Coach

    Is there anything a parent can do to help build up a discouraged coach? My daughter's coach is having a rough time right now. She is worried about some injured kids, feels like she's doing something wrong, and is having parents second guess/argue with her coaching decisions. I know she is also...

    Parents Discouraged daughter/discouraged mom

    I'm a long time lurker who needs some words of encouragement. DD is 10, just started training level 5. She's now setting the gymnastics world on fire, but she loves it, loves the gym, looks forward to every practice and if she's happy, then I'm happy. : ) But this week she's not happy...

    Still no TOPS results here....DD is getting discouraged :-(

    Hard to explain to an 8 year old why we don't know yet...Coaches are out of town, perhaps you are not on the list, when they know they'll call etc isn't cutting it anymore.....Sigh...maybe we'll find out when they post it on the USAG site LOL. Hope she did well enough in her one test she did...

    Discouraged - a New Group

    Well, I have to say, I'm a little discouraged at the new group we have. Since this is our optional season but I won't be competing until next January-ish, I can't train with the optionals even though I'm working level seven skills (don't have all of them yet). So I'm training with some girls who...

    Discouraged; chronic cheating

    We don't do very tough conditioning compared to other gyms, but I think somewhere along the line the coach gave the team an assignment (conditioning or otherwise) that was too challenging, and no one said anything and just cheated. Over time, it must have become a habit, so now the coach expects...

    Parents Discouraged

    How much more can a gymnast take. Our optional team has had a tough year and we may be at the end of Gymbabis career now. First our coach died unexpectedly, that was horrible, and she wanted to quit then. One of the compulsory coaches was able to get her to keep trying for a while. The gym...
