My daughter had a great floor routine choreographed last year, at great expense when she was in level 7, our floor coach at the time had made the decision that all optional routines would only have 2 tumbling passes, so that's how it was choreographed. My daughter had to have surgery before the...
Hello all. I've started training again in my old age and am having the time of my life except for one little (or big) problem. When I do turns on beam or floor, my big toe frequently gets "stuck" and then is bruised/swollen for a week or two after. Not looking for medical advice, but rather...
we love dd's routine. it was chore'd by a gymnast who did a bid for a spot on the olympic team a while back. now she's qualified to judge up to level 10. it's a great routine. but dd consistently gets the lowest scores on floor in her meets. and on her team. she's mainly upper 8s but has...
I was recently watching youtube and I stumbled upon a Level 7 floor routine with amazing music. So, I went on to find it, and narrowed it down to Batter's Box by Taps Guevara. But, I can't seem to find a version without words. Wondering if anybody can help.
The gymnast's floor routine here...
Hoping this is in the right forum. This is my DD's first time picking her own music, she would like Dolly's 9 to 5. I have goggled and can't seem to find it, am I looking in the wrong place or does some songs just not have what I need? Thank you for any help
I am really struggling here. I need some recommendations. I would like something fierce, that is not overplayed, and everyone would love. Almost like Simone biles' floor music. I have searched everywhere and I am starting to loose patience. Nothing cutesy please, I am a bit to tall and old to do...
Just curious what other people use to play their FX music at meets?
2 season ago HC had an off brand MP3 player that was not at all user friendly and I was put on music duty at states and managed to screw up. I now have pretty terrible music anxiety at meets.
Last season I used my own iPod...
What is the maximum time limit for a Level 7 floor routine? Can it be 1:30?
My daughter just switched gyms and levels, and is being told the max length is 1:20. But everything I'm reading online says Levels 7 - 10 can be up to 1:30 (and Level 6 can be up to 1:15).
I completely understand...
What else can my dd do besides front handspring punch front? For some reason her knee and hip hurts when doing punching forward on floor and right now she's ok just doing front aerial at lv6. However, they do upskills and she's not able to do these forward tumbling passes.
Hi everyone! We just had our first lvl 6 practice meet. She's been recovering from partially torn ligaments in her left foot, but I was very curious how much deductions she's receiving due to the obviously crooked front tuck (because she still doesn't fully punch on the left foot anymore) and...
Alex playing around with a new beam skill... Alex thought BHS BLO BLO was intense when she learned and competed it... this has definitely moved it up on the scale of YIKES........but I have to say if she got this skill it would be pretty darn impressive....stay tuned ;)
Hope everyone is...
An adult gymnast in my class wanted examples of sassy and fun floor routines for her to see and maybe attempt. She did collegiate cheerleading and power tumbling so she has a lot of tumbling skills just but has never done a gymnastics floor routine.
Since I personally prefer more graceful...
It's that time again for me to pick new floor music. my current floor music is :
I'm looking for something very similar in style (dynamic with a bit of dance). Please help me find floor music i love !!!!
Thankyou xoxo
Short version: Do you think the level 4 floor routine looks better when the arm motions are smooth and flowing/graceful or sharp and precise?
Long version: My dd has 2 floor/beam coaches this season and they seem to disagree about how the floor routine should best be performed. They coach the...
This is my first year picking music, and I need help deciding. I really like 300 violins and Beethoven's Virus. Any thoughts on either? I'm thinking 300 violins might be too repetitive and virus might be too "all over" the place. I'm a "in between" gymnast - not super powerful but not super...
This is late for picking floor music. I just want your opinion on some of these sounds. P.S. These are not going to be used this year by me or a fellow team member.

Hello again everyone!!! So my dd have a lv6 fx routine that is choreograph by the head coach, it is very simple. Her music is 1.00 min long. She can't dance really. I am worried her routine is just too plain compared to the rest of the LV 6s. She's also young. She does a little dance and then...
