Our journey into the gymnastics world continues as my daughter starts team practices tonight. We will be adding 8 hours of practice to our week (coming up from TWO currently!) so I'm enjoying a quiet cup of tea in peace and quiet before this big change to our routine (and budget...must got the estimate of costs for competitions next year...oh my!). Thankfully our gym is very close to home, so at least I won't be adding a ton of commuting time!
it should be an interesting first few practices. Our gym is very small and very new - last year was the first year with a competitive team - only 5 level 4 girls! I think there are close to 15 girls joining the team now....and two new coaches in charge! It'll be a big change for the current team girls. I'm hoping it all goes smoothly - most of the new girls will be "new" level 3 next year, but they've said a few (my girl included) have good potential to get the skills to be "new" level 4 with the returning team girls. After nearly every practice lately, her commentary includes "I almost had my kip!" I'm learning a whole new language...lol! I thank you all in advance for helping my learning curve!
