Begginer help?

[dawnlovesyou789]

I'm a freshman, am I too old to start?
I really really love gymnastics and couldn't do it awhile back because of a back injury.
But i'm fine now and want to start!
Also, what would I need?
Thanks

There is no such thing as being too old to start learning gymnastics. If you're interested in the sport, I really think you should go for it! I think this whole website is a little bit biased, but gymnastics is an awesome sport and it's definitely worth a try! I know a lot of girls who have started at about your age and who have gone on to learn quite a lot and really enjoyed themselves.

I just started too . Well actually I start in January but i used to take gymnastics when I was 6 but my mom pulled me out a year later. Im im 8th grade now but Im pretty confident I'll do well but I wonder if they'll be girls my age in the class or if I'll be with a lot of little kids ???

Go for it! I started in August and I'm a senior in college. I take a gymnastics class with all ages... some of them are in there 40s or older. You're never to old
