My gymnast!

Julia started taking gymnastics at the local YMCA in January. These classes are MUCH different that the ones we took at our old place. These classes are much more advanced in teaching gymnastics. It was a bit of a learning curve for Julia, but she caught on quickly. Hopefully, this will help her be more coordinated than her clumsy mother!


Yes, they have the kids doing flips on the high bar (or whatever it is called)


Doing her bridge. This is where I noticed the most improvement. At the start of the session, she could not even get her shoulders off the ground. Now she can get her whole body, including her head off the ground. She still cannot hold it for a 10 count, but I am very impressed at the improvement.


Julia does really well at the balance beam. The first couple of classes she was scared of being that high, but soon got over that and has been doing great.
