After much thought we have decided to switch gyms. It wasn't an easy decision, but in the long run, hopefully it will turn out to be the right one. We love all the people at our dd's current gym and she has alot of great friends there but for various reasons we have decided to move. There are only 2 coaches here, and our gym is VERY small, with not enough ceiling clearance to do giants. My dd has been competing level 8 without giants. We haven't told coach yet, we are waiting until after states next week. Our daughter is the first girl at our gym to get this far and the facility is just not equipped to train her properly. The new gym has plenty of ceiling, pits, coaches for each event plus a choreographer and a dance class as well. DD is so excited she could burst! If we stay here her chances of advancing any higher are slim...she has gone as far as she can go here, but now she will be able to learn the required skills to advance. I know coach will be sad to see her go, but will understand our reasons. We are excited for her, but also nervous.
I know alot of you have switched gyms for various reasons. Any advice you could give me would be helpful. Also any advice from your dd's as well, as to how she can make the transition easy. Thanks!
