Hello everyone.
I remember growing up I always wanted to do gymnastics. I could do a mean cartwheel and roundoff but that was it just from my front yard. I remember one time I was able to do, what I learned later was a backwards walk over. I think thats the name of it.
I remember the '96 Olympics. wow. what intensity and amazing gymnastics. I knew then I wanted to do gymnastics. Sadly due to life and family circumstances, I couldn't at the time. But always still a dream and still is. You might notice my age in my profile. I am 29. I know, I know, Im old
I was wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction of so many things. Treat me like Im a new girl who just walked into the gym and im not 29. Where does one get a leo? Secondly, Am I allowed to train at gyms with the other girls. I am hearing something about the 15 and up category? Is that something and do I fall into it? I know I won't ever go to the Olympics. Is there an age limit on that team. I mean theoretically speaking COULD someone at my age go as a gymnast?
If anyone can help me out that would be great. I am trying to find an adult gymnastic program. I live in Philadelphia,pa. I would totally train at a "regular" gym if I am allowed - am I allowed?
In the meantime while I start on this journey that I want to go on. Any advice on what to maybe start doing while I look for a gym? I am in somewhat good shape, but Irs been a few years since I have ran a few miles. Should I start with body conditioning?
ANY and ALL info would be most helpful. I don't know how often I can check this site, but I will try.,
If you want to personally send me a message its (xxxxxxxxxxxx) *no spaces*
Thanks
