Gymnastics : To Participate or not to Participate?





As some of you know, we switched Spencer from Carolina Gymnastics in Columbia to the Rec Dept in Camden {which is instructed by the same people}. Every week, I have to convince {BEG} him to participate. First of all, he went from an all boys class of 5 to a boy/girl class of 20, mostly girls.




He just does not like it in Camden, but we couldn't switch back to Columbia. Look closely at the picture above on the left and you will see him sitting on the mat while all the other kids are warming up. We finally decided that April will be his LAST month. Every week, he asks me to take him back to the other school. So today I decided to take as many pictures as I could since this will be his last month. The bad part about him taking gymnastics, he doesn't like the class but he knows how to do everything they are teaching him. He is always practicing on the trampoline.
The main reason we switched him was because his teacher was advancing him to another group, so we just decided to go somewhere a little closer to home...didn't really work out like we wanted it to. We'll know in the future. So if he is interested next year, we WILL be driving back to Columbia to attend classes on Rabon Road. Of course, we will keep you posted!!
