    Summer/specialty camps

    Wondering if there are any summer/specialty camps that can be used to supplement our regular summer training schedule. Has anyone gone to any other venues for training other than their home club???

    Parents summer camps - for gym not just fun (but it can be fun...)

    I know there have been threads about the pluses and minuses of camps on here, and I do get that they could be very unnecessary. We are in a bit of an unusual circumstance. My boys lost their coach in January, and have had a fill in younger, less experienced coach. He is doing very well, but...

    Women Summer Camp

    Hi any recommendations for a good summer camp for my daughter to actually learn and get better smart skills? She will be a level 9 next season. Or maybe privates are better for the money? Thanks

    Parents Summer camp

    I found out on Friday our gym offers a week long summer camp with 4 hours of gym time and 2 hours of crafts/snack/ lunch/free time. For $170. Of course Allison is wanting to go. For those of you whose kids have done gym camp, is there anything I should be aware of when deciding to let her do this?

    Women Summer Camp for Optional Bars??

    I was wondering if anyone had heard of a Summer Camp or Gymnast Workshop for Optional gymnasts where working on uneven bars was a focus? For example; getting a cast to handstand, improving giants, pirouette and release skills?

    Men When to consider summer camp?

    I've seen several threads talking about summer camp, so I apologize for posting another. At what age or level did you start sending your boys to camp? Mine is only 8, and I'm not quite ready to send him off by himself overnight. But, I think in another year or two (or three or four?) maybe it...

    Women College vs independent summer camps

    Ok, a bit overwhelmed with all the options... At first I was going to send dd to FlipFest because it's I just a 10hr drive. But I just found out about all these universities offering camps for cheaper. Which is best? FF is about $750 and a college camp is less than $500 on average. What do you...

    Women Scoring Out - Will dd have to wait until the summer???

    I did try to search this forum enough to find the answer, but I'm still uncertain. Prior to us relocating, DD was old L4. She is currently competing Xcel Silver (she never competed and we moved to our new gym in July of last year - L4 competes in Aug). So there wasn't enough time for DD to...

    Parents Summer Camp

    I am researching summer camps for my dd. She is level 5/6. We are willing to travel. We are not too keen on sleepover camps. All advice is appreciated.

    Parents Summer Camps

    Hi there...I know that this question has been asked before but I thought I would get a refresh of responses. I am looking to send my daughter to summer camp this summer. She has been to Woodward a couple of times and last year went to Chicago Institute. She liked them both for very different...

    Women Opinion question about summer coaching opportunities

    This past year or so I have been making arrangements for what I want to do after I graduate high school as far as coaching goes. I am a 17 year old senior. I got certified in everything this summer to be on the floor at usag functions, became a jr. professional member and took my 4/5 judging...

    Women Summer hours

    Sorry to beat the dead horse (this probably has been posted before), but I need some viewpoints to make my decision. So ‘tis the time to look at the day camp flex account and make plans for next summer already. Our gym requires (but doesnt really enforce)girls to put in 3 to 4 weeks of full days...

    Women Summer camps

    Okay I know this is probably the most stupid question ever asked but for camps like Woodward and Flipfest are those gyms just built for camps? Do they offer gym classes during the rest of the year? Do they have teams or compete?

    Parents Coaches against gymnasts attending summer camps

    More recently I've gotten to know our gym owner. During our conversation he brought up the fact that he did not like his gymnasts to go to summer camps. His reasoning is that he works all year to reinforce form and technique and then girls go to camp and come back with all that work destroyed...
