Hi,
So my daughter just started allstar cheering. She has an 11 year background in gymnastics, the last 6 which were competitive. She is 12 years old, on a level 3 team. We are trying to get used to the differences of the sport, mainly the amount of hours between the two. she was used to training 12-19 hours/week and now she is working out 5 hours/week plus an added tumbling class.
I am just interested if anyone here was a gymnast before, or if anyones child was a former gymnast. I think it can definitely help with the sport of cheering, esp with the flexibility and tumbling. Is there any advice anyone can give for just starting out in allstar cheer?
Thanks for your time and we are glad to be a part of this sport, and I am glad to have found this website, its very helpful since I have a lot to learn now about cheer..
