Final Gymnastics Class

Cora has been going to gymnastics at The Little Gym in Friendswood for the past year. We have really enjoyed it, but we were missing too many classes so I decided to not enroll for this year and put her in some classes at her school instead. She had a couple of girls from her daycare in her class with her and they are in one of the classes at school. The gym was bought out by a family and Cora's teacher changed mid semester. It was really hard for Cora to get used to the new teacher, but she warmed up to her at the very end. Of course when I decided to not keep going she started doing really well in the class! She would follow directions and do all the moves by herself.

This is part of the opening circle with her teacher, Carly and her friend, Karina.
Warm up - running in a circle. Except for the last two classes I always had to hold her hand during this part.

Getting ready for a forward roll.

Doing a donkey kick.

Doing a roll over her pole.

The little girl behind her looks miffed because Cora totally cut in front of her - mainly because Karina is one of her friends from school.

She did well on this even though it was higher than she was used to.

She walked all the way across with no problems!

This made me nervous because she always swings and then drops down and I wasn't sure she realized how high she really was!

She always did well on the balance beam. She learned to kick and 'dip her foot in the pool' while walking across. She never let go of me though.

My little monkey

She does like to show off!

Her favorite is swinging from the bars and then dropping down on the cushy mat.

I was impressed she did this - she was jumping to the teacher.

Getting bubbles on their feet

Sitting on her yellow dot and following directions

Ta-da! Getting her ribbon. She wouldn't put both arms up for some reason.

I have put her in a tumbling class and a dance class at her school to keep her active and limber. Once she gets a little older I will probably put her in dance or gymnastics at one of the places near the house. I just hate that I won't get to see her doing it each week (only online when I remember to look!)
