She's talented but I dont know about a 8yr old on a SrO team

impressive, but don't get this gymnastics coach started on a girl doubling at 7

My daughter got her double at 7.... She is now just turned 10 and is progressing to combos to doubles and standing to doubles. I think her progression is right on track 2 years later. She has suffered no injuries or mental blocks.

THANK YOU!!!!!

I was a gymnast (Level 10) before I switched over to cheer. It drives me nuts to see these little ones doing these skills. When they hit puberty it's going to be really tough for them to adjust with the extra height and weight and change in center of gravity.

wow she is seriously amazing!!! i hope she doesn't have a hard time when she grows.

If the child continues to train why would there be a problem?? Hope Bravo, Angel Rice, Ashley Hobbs have all had tremendous growth spurts and if anything with a little weight and more core strength tumbling will improve rather than go backwards. (JMO)

Shes on it with her big sister though, so it works out pretty well.

She is very talented.

I believe there are also some videos of her stunting with UK cheerleaders, as well.

i totally agree! if she can keep this going at full speed she will be amazing, i just hope grow spurts wont slow her down...

Hope quit artistic gymnastics at age 10 (she was working out 20 hrs) She was about 4'9. She is now 12 yrs old @ 5'4. IMO, it's all about going back to basics (round offs,bhs,layouts) and conditioning. Ask her what she worked on all summer..... Backhandsprings! Notice her alignment..she lands on the line each time her feet hit the ground.

This is Ollie Kerns, she's on SO5 with me this year at TumbleCheer AllStars in Riverside, Mo.
On SO5 she does a toe front, standing full, standing bhs bhs full bhs bhs full, and an arabian through to full.
Her kick doubles and double from aero are GORGEOUS also...

I'm only posting this because on the threads talking about young talent her name never comes up, and I think she's right up there with Angel Rice



What do you fiercers think??

Ollie keep working hard and perfecting your skills. You are an awesome athlete! Great job !!

Ive been in cheer for forever, Ive grown to 6 foot 1 since I started in the 3rd grade. Height and weight changes are something everyone has to deal with when they cheer through adolescence.

Megan Hamel had her double at 7 i believe- thats when i met her, she might have had it before

I'm sure there is 7 and 8 year oldS on Woodlands Elite Colonels J5 team this year that have doubles. That team has a ton of young talented tumblers.
