My CP's gym's evals and tryouts are starting tonight. We had a private on Fri and one yesterday to try and push past this block she is having. It is a long story but we've been working for over a year at it. She hit a wall on Fri and yesterday. She said while she was standing there waiting to throw the next pass, she realized she was bored with it. After a long talk, we realize she is bored being at the same level for as long as she has been (5 years). She doesn't feel any excitement or passion right now. Much to my dismay, she has decided to take at least this summer off from being committed to any one all star team or gym. She is on her school's team and will continue to tumble weekly (more than that if she'd like) and still work on her skills. But by not having the pressure of a deadline, we are both hoping she blossoms. She made this decision last night before going to tumble with her school team and I could already see a difference in her disposition.
I am having a hard time wrapping my brain around this. But I am supporting her. I know this is not something she came to lightly. We are going to see where the summer takes her and reevaluate then
