Hello, all! I'm still a newbie to the world of gymnastics, since my Little A started taking classes at our local gym about 7 months ago. Briefly--Little A turned 4 last fall and was asked to join a pre-pre-team group right before her birthday.
She loves her class, and I love watching her. My question is this: her teacher has another class immediately following my daughter's, so I never get a chance to chat with the teacher about how things are going. I'm trying to find the balance between seeming indifferent, and coming across as a CGM.
Are "parent-teacher conferences" normal at this level of gymnastics? I want the teacher to know I care about A's progress and that she is excited to be on the team someday, if that works out. Is six months a reasonable amount of time to have passed to ask for some time to sit down with Teacher and chat? One of the ladies at the front desk of the gym said she would be happy to set something up for me when I mentioned how I was a little frustrated that A's teacher has no time between classes when we are done...
Thanks in advance! My daughter continues to love gymnastics and her joy and passion are beautiful and often beyond her years!
