Well.....we found a second gym, that is the same distance from us as the 1st one I found, just in the opposite direction. They had dd come in today to have a trial class/evaluation with the competition class/team.
She had a blast! They decided to put her right with the competition class/team girls. She was so excited. The HC said she should have no problem catching up. They won't start competiting til the spring this year anyway.
She picked up pretty quick on the things they worked on today. She did a pullover, cast and backward hip circle on the bars by herself by the end of the class, and did a cartwheel on the regular beam without a spot. And also did the level 4 beam dismount by herself after watching the girl before her do it.
They had some "contests" (backhandspring, handstand, cartwheel on the beam, handstand on the beam and a jump contest lol) at the end of the practice, so she came home with 4 2nd place ribbons and 1 first (which she hasn't put down since we came home lol) And they had to literally kick her out of the gym at the end of practice, she was the last one lingering on the floor. So I'd say she really enjoyed herself today lol.
Just had to share!
