Little Gym Show Week

We were so proud of our girls as they participated in their first one stage performance. It was show week at the Little Gym and each student performed a floor routine, balance beam routine, and an uneven bars routine. Neither girl showed any signs of stage freight and went through all three performances beautifully. We want to thank Nana, Aunt Tracie, Lorelai, Momo, and Pa for coming to watch. I think having people to perform for helped. Emily was first up on the floor routine. They started off with a backward roll.

At the end they were to stand on the spot, raise their hands, and wait for applause. Emily did all three pretty quickly and was ready to go sit back beside her sister.
Abigail was next and did every move wonderfully. She is such a little perfectionist. She practiced most of her moves at home frequently.

Emily starting her routine. She came such a long way during their time at the Little Gym. Before they started this class we went to a coule events there and she was pretty scared to attempt the high balance beam. Now she is able to do several tricks on her own.

The uneven bars were last and the students were to hold themselves up, do a front roll over, and then put their feet on the bar while holding on upside down. Both girls were great!


She finally got the hang of the landing and stayed a little longer to get her appause from her adoring crowd.
Ms. Olivia allowed the students about 10 mintues to just play on the equipment to show their families other things they enjoyed doing at the Little Gym.
