@fierceoncé you should stop by sometime starting in early March (after NCA), have your CP meet some of the coaches, and possibly watch a practice/participate in class or open gym. (if you all are available within the next 10 days, you're more than welcome to come in and experience pre-NCA...
Hi! When are you guys moving to the area? We would love to have you guys come in and check out the gym, and meet our staff!
At this time, nearly half of athletes travel from the DC/VA area. Specifically, about a quarter of them are in Northern Virginia and all of them are involved in car pools...
Reign is going into its 10th season and has consistently placed in the top 10 for Medium Coed and Small Coed since 2009. Most notably, placing 5th in the most competitive division in 2012 & 2013. Why would they dismantle a team that has its own legacy?
This isn't 2007, the focus is not on a...
I'm pretty sure during jumps to back, LE had a basket toss which certainly is more than 2 fakers...unless of course they did jumps to back while the flyer was hitting the basket.
For those complaining about f5s routine lacking in choreography, you should all know that wont last long. Maryland twisters are full packaged teams- once f5 gets music they will jazz it up and give you everything you want, a la miss hunnay, know the style know the face.
I must say that it was...
i'm confused about the parents who are complaining about a $65 registration fee & water fountains, but have no problems joining a program that hasn't secured a practice facility.
that seems to be an issue that needed to be handled on the marlins end, but the parents seem to be aligning that with twisters responsibility. please understand that no parties in this situation asked for ANY of this. terri could have merged with any program (nitros included), but she sought out...
blingiton you are really trying to make this into a conspiracy. the twisters program has been nothing but accommodating to the the athletes that have come with the merger and somehow it is still not good enough.
in regards to the evaluation fee, EVERY athlete (returning or new) is required to...
Incorrect. A decision on the team has not been made and will not be made until the coaches further evaluate the situation.
Twisters has been overly accommodating since inheriting these new athletes and will continue to do so. The primary focus is that Tsu stays together and the coaches will...
Emotions aside, businesses of any sort only merge out of necessity. In light of recent gym closings in the area, this may have been the best option for providing athletes a permanent home.
While everyone's admiration for the underdog makes a good story, it in no way pays the bills.
I will say that @cheerupdates is probably the most reliable source to have for things like this, and I do know that they have known about the merger for some time and did not release the information until they were ADVISED. So at some point this was not simply speculation. Also hearing the...
being from Maryland, i don't think these gyms could be any more different. in terms of technique, style, values, coaches.. i just see this as one big clash. i don't view these programs as "equals" at all.
this is maryland, so i have no idea what to expect.
btw, this could have been HUGE if it was released immediately after worlds with the appropriate outreach and promotion.
