The Little Gym
by Janelle Call on Jun.18, 2011
I went to the Women’s Expo at UVU a couple of months ago. While I was there I visited a booth for The Little Gym. Avery has expressed interest in gymnastics ever since we saw Skyler’s cousin perform in a gymnastics meet in Wyoming. So I signed her up for an introductory class with them.

When the day arrived to take her to the class I didn’t want to go, but decided it would be good for her to go try it out. I am so glad that I took her because she had the time of her life! I had so much fun watching her. I was on the outside of the glass watching her, which is why the pictures are not that great.

The kids went around to different stations and had to perform different tasks. In this one she had to be a caterpillar. I was so surprised to see her do this, I didn’t think she could.

Towards the end of the class they let me go inside and take some pictures of her. She loved the balance beam. The first time she had to have help from her teacher, but every time after that she did it on her own. I was so proud of her!

Avery’s favorite part was the bars. She has amazing strength in her arms and was able to pull herself up and around with little help from her teacher. I was not able to get any pictures of her on the bars, but trust me she was WAY cute! I may have to sign her up for a gymnastics class now.
