I figured it was time for a new update. Well in July it will be 1 year since Madison started. And what can I say. I signed her up because I did gymnastics but the girl made the sport of her own. She is now 100% gymnast. She has had Kathy as her coach and she couldnt be happier. Maddy loves her so much. She is going twice a week and it seems not enough for her but for now thats what as much as we want her to do because we dont want to burn her out. As she gets older she will be going more and more so for now 2 days a week is a good amount of time. We are also doing a few private classes with Kathy and Madison loves it. She loves having one on one time with her Kaffffffy as she calls her. She recently got a medal!! Thanks to Cheryl and Sarah (Sarah is a level 8!!) who were so sweet to give Madison a medal from Sarah's medal stash. Kathy saved it for Maddy till she could get her bridge kickover by herself. She did it and you should have seen her face.. priceless!. Starting the next school year she will be in advance preschool gymnastics. Im very excited to see her in that class. The classes will be mondays and wednesdays. We kept her in preschool tuesdays and thursdays so she can be in the advance class. She has improved so much and she definitely has talent for it. She can now do.. cartwheels, pullovers on bars, she can go up the rope, bridges, back tucks in the harness without holding on, handstand to bridge, bridge kickovers, backroll, front roll on the beam, she is working on hip back circles, handstands and lots of new things. I never thought this whole gymnastics thing with Maddy would take a life of its own but it did. And she is definitely meant to be at the gym. She loves it more than anything. Thats the update! I will post new pics and videos soon.
