Hello mom to 2

Hi! We are somewhat new to gymnastics.

My 7 year old took a few classes at age 3 or 4 and then had a few classes while living abroad during school PE. Then in May after moving back to the US she started up in a gym and quickly moved up and now she is in a training program. She is strong, has balance and is flexible but tumbling skills are a bit lacking but she will get there.

My son is 5 and strong and flexible and self taught in cartwheels he is mad that he isn't in a training program yet! It looks like we are in for a long haul.

Welcome and good luck with the long haul! Sounds like you may end up with two gymmies, so invest in a comfy cushion and a thermos (essential competition equipment) and then start saving your pennies!
