Last gymnastics: Bear Cubs!

We had a great run at Bear Cubs this session!  The kids really got advanced, started doing handstands into rolls and you can see how quickly they pick things up!  This last class, it was basically a free-class, for them to pick their favorites and just play--not like the more routine week-to-week activities they normally follow.

Amara had a great little form on her handstand when Miss Lisa helped her!  When she got a chance to do it on her own though, she created (I'm sure with the help of the neighbors and creativity) a kind of standing forward roll as it were, skipping the handstand part.  I know she can do it--she's been doing them against the wall for years and has no problems, but I think it's a confidence thing.

We are going to revisit her classes after T-Ball this spring--maybe just swimming in the summer, then really see what she picks this fall, I'd be surprised if gymnastics isn't in the mix.
