Our gym is typically at those hours at that level. We have had girls that skipped a day a week but they still had to pay full tuition price as they were taking a spot in that group, so thats something to keep in mind. My DD is at that many hours and it can be hard, I let her leave early one night a week (due to a late night early satruday practice in her gym schedule) and I tell her she can pick 2 days off a month. So if she says hey I dont want to go to practice today, I say you want this to be one of your two days? If she says yes she can stay home, and play, or be lazy or go to that thing with her friends whatever---she doesnt need a "reason" to miss. She doesnt always use her two days but she likes knowing she has them. She is going into middle school which I know will be a tough transition so I will give her more schedule flexibility with gym to help keep her happy in the sport. The truth is those that go to practice more may end up scoring better its hard to say. Just keep an eye on what days you miss as well, our gym has different days like basics, or uptraining or routines, if you are going to have set times you miss make sure you pick strategically, so she doesnt miss the same event all the time or miss the fun uptraining day.
