    Does my DD NEED Summer Camp?

    Hi All, I am new to CB and this is my first online post ever. I hope I am doing this correctly. My DD is 8 and is a level 3. Her team is competing and she is doing well. She absolutely LOVES gymnastics and would be in the gym 24-7 if she could. Right now it is just 6 hours a week. Some of the...

    WOGA Summer Camp?

    Have any of you (or your children/gymnasts) ever gone to this camp? I was looking at it because it costs just about the same amount as the college camp that is nearby. However, I could not find much info about it. If you/ your gymnast went, did you/they enjoy it? Would they go again...

    Summer Camp...1st time??

    I am 14 years old and a level 7, and this summer will be my first time ever going to a overnight camp. I am really nervous! It is at NC State University, but some other girls on my team are going, and my coach is planning on going too. She said that going to camp will be a good experience for...

    summer camp, worth the money?

    We have thought about gymnastics camp for the last several years. The trouble is, it is very expensive and I'm not sure which to choose. We have coaches that prefer different camps, IGC or Woodward, both in PA. I am wondering if anyone has a preference or can say that summer camp is...

    Juju Video - Summer Fun

    I normally post in the parent section but got a very lovely message/comment from one of the gymnast members on CB since she could not post in the parent forum. Because of that I figured I would try posting something here... :D I made a quick video of some fun things DD did over the summer in...

    Parents update after summer training

    It's been a long time since I posted so here is an update. After switching gyms in May, much progress has been made. Giants have been learned and are now done effortlessly. :DVault is really coming along. Tsuks are "ok" but DD prefers doing yurchenkos (spelling?) Straddle backs are done solo...

    Parents Hi all! It's been a long BUSY summer!

    Hi all! I chatted a bit with Pepper on youtube and she wondered where we had been. So, with a few minutes to spare I decided I would catch up with all you. We did not end up moving to Florida.... One happy Junior, the rest of us are in a bit of depression! However, dad did spend almost 4 months...

    Parents Just checking in, summer update

    Hey everyone. I hope everyone's summer is going great. Elizabeth's been having a great time at camp. We tried something different this year, no sports, to give her body a much needed rest. She started with fashion, then switched to cooking and finished with sailing. It was a nice change of...

    Parents Summer skills being trained???

    I've seen a few posts excited about the new skills our children are learning, and thought it's time to start a thread! What skills are your children training right now? Are they close on some, struggling on others? I talked to Bean before she left for gym this morning, and her training is...

    Summer Gymnastics

    Now that school is done here are some random questions which we can all answer about our summer training.... How many hours are you training each week this summer? Do you like summer training or do you like regular year better? Are you going to gym camp at all?

    Parents Summer swim team starts tomorrow!

    And this week is going to be too cold to swim outside (in my motherly opinion). Not too keen on the necessity of "dry land conditioning" for the children ... since their idea of fun is 20 straight minutes jumping their height on a trampoline etc. For the life of me, why can't practice start...

    Parents Summer Strength and Flexibility class

    This is my first time ever attempting to post a poll, so forgive me if I screw it up! I have a lot of coordinated kids in rec who want a specific skill, but are held back by flexibility or strength issues. Common examples are back walkovers, pullovers, and backbends. The structure of a 1...
