    WAG Does a great coach trump an established good program?

    We are almost certainly about to change gyms. My child is 5, in an um, elite track I guess program (IDP) and currently trains 12 hours a week.

    WAG How is your non-homeschool TOPs program structured?

    I am interested to hear how gyms structure TOPs programs-- particularly ones for non-home schooled kids where all the gym time is non-school hours. For example, is it extra days a week completely separate from USAG? is it integrated into regular lvl training hours and girls are split into...

    MAG 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...

    WAG REC program

    I was just wondering how the REC programs are run at most gyms. Does your gym have event coaching or does the same coach stay with one group. How are the girls split up? Is there certain curriculum for each "level" or group or do coaches come up with what is best for their group? And, how are...

    What future is there for gymnasts in the NDP program?

    Hi. My daughter is 7 and in NDP Level 2. Our gym only offers club or national. Is there any future in the national stream? What will my daughter acheive besides strength and flexibility. She trains hard and it's expensive. I guess I just don't know where it goes from here. Thanks

    Have different provinces modified the CPN program?

    Does anyone know? I ask because Gymnix International put out a message that for Aspire and Elite they are using the "Gymnastics Canada PNC version".

    There seems to be an overwhelming tone on ChalkBucket that many girls rec. gymnastics programs are not progressive...they are basically overlooked and so are the children in them. Is this the case at your gym?...or do you have a nice progressive rec. program? Please describe your rec...
