when I was really little, I used to do things like hang on the shower curtain rod, and jump off the washing machine. My mom put me in Stars Extreme gymnastics in Bakersfield (now American). I remember the first time I walked in to the gym, I saw the uneven bars and was just like "wow, that looks so fun".
I took the toddler classes there for a while. I remember being pretty bored, and seeing another class practicing. (a level six class warming up). I left my little toddler class and went and started warming up with them. They moved me up a level after that.
Eventually ended up on a level 5 team in Northern California. There were a few allstar teams out of the gym, and I remember watching them was pretty cool. My coach wanted to move me up to 6, but practices were 5 days a week, and that was absolutely not possible for my family. So I switched! Its my 10th year now, and sadly my last.
