Hi.
My daughter just left her Y program to compete with a private club. She is 8 years old. She did really great at the Y and loves gymnastics! Her new coach has said that she should probably just compete 1 meet as a 6 and move to a 7. She has all of her 6 skills-not all pretty (clear hip...
Not only was she adorable, but really good too! This was a great vid of Alicia back in the day working it as a compulsory gymnast! Seeing the routines are a real blast as well - enjoy...:D

For the USAG JO level 6 routine the dismount on bars is a flyaway. Some coaches teach a tuck and some a pike flyaway.
I wonder if there are separate benefits to teaching one or the other, can anyone comment? TIA :)
Our new gym is working the new skills and I am thinking for the 2 sec hold for the level 5 handstand, they were having the girls work on the level 6 beam dismount. Our old gym would never have a single level 5 work this skill until they were level 6s so I was shocked. I was really shocked that...
Does anyone know where I can find (on line) a list of skills needed (according to USAG standards) for L6 and L7? Just looking for a list....does anyone know where to find such a thing? Thanks for your help! :confused:
I have heard that there are gyms that do what they can to skip or minimize the time spent in Level 6. They'll get their Level 5 girls to get a mobility score in 6 and then move on to seven. Other gyms see girls get "stuck" at Level 6. Just wondering what the coaches think about it. Why is the...
Hello all, This place is awesome! I can't believe I am just finding you all! My daughter is now a Level 6 after being told she would never make "competitive' gymnastics. She started 4 years ago this coming Dec. and loves every minute of it.
Many of you know I have been a rec. coach for the past 8 years. My family and I just moved to Wisconsin and I am now coaching Level 6 girls.
Does anyone have any general tips for creating a strong Level 6 team? (Ways to get the scores up...things that have worked for your team...skills they...
