My daughter just got a hula hoop and was able to hula for over a minute after a few tries...I am going to thank gymnastics for this probably because of the strong core...it made me wonder what other skills/sports or wacky skills do people feel they or their child was able to pick up easier because of gymnastics?
It's so true about the core strength. My kid picked up ice skating way faster than I expected because their balance was already so dialed in from the beam. It’s funny how those gym skills just show up in random daily activities.

Beam deductions

Hi everyone! I’m hoping to get some help understanding my deductions on beam. I’ve been watching my videos back, but I’m having trouble figuring out exactly where the judges are taking the most off. If anyone is willing to take a look and give me some feedback, I’d really appreciate it. I’m especially curious about execution deductions, rhythm/connection issues, and anything in my acro or dance that might be costing me. The judge started me at a 10 for this routine, and I got a 9.1
