Do you know what skill level they usually require for kids to move up? Do they want them to be able to do all the skills for the Level 3 routines before moving up? There are only a couple of girls in my daughter's group (and my daughter is not one of them) who have all of the level 3 skills. My daughter has most, some of the girls aren't even close. Yet they moved up the whole group. Is that normal? Maybe it is and I just really don't understand how it all works.
not that I can see. I think the preteam for my dd's current gym is more like an advanced rec class with strong emphasis on contitioning while doing the levels below L4 skills. But I've seen the move up girls and well there is alot of work that will need to be done for that group. our gym also doesn't really do the fall season except for a few meets and is more focused on the spring time meets. so they see it as summer and fall to get them to level (7 months) more than enough time. In my area most really start more at L4 and when they start they really don't have alot of skills but they get them really fast I'm always amazed in just 2 months time how much they improve and by meet season they are doing so well they are placing. I don't see the compulsory groups as much as they are there either when my dd isn't or during the time inbetween when I drop off and pick up I only see them on Fridays when all the teams are there together.
