Before Gymnastics I thought it was boring because I honestly thought it was for girls and full flexibility. When I got into Gymnastics i first tried to do a front flip, With no experience I obviously failed, I could do a front flip but not land and its wasn't proper. After Attempting to accomplish that task I knew I had to move on to something that I can do.. I found the ballencing beam and after learning to walk on it, balance on it, run on it, do poses on it, I knew that it was my speciality so I grabbed a small cone and learned to jump over it with two feet, then I started getting more and more, Until I could do 3 at a time with 2 feet then I moved on from that and learned something else but shortly after that the week later i decided to do a crazy one foot and jumping over cones, i was proud of myself for accomplishing it and my friends are now calling me the one foot wonder. This week i decided to instead of doing it all myself i did some by myself and decided to teach my friends how to do it, if we had more cones i can try to do more but meanwhile with 3 cones i will keep it 3, only one of my friends could jump over two cones with two feet and that was kaleb, the rest were scared of jumping and hurting, The teacher said i can try with no mat and just a small tiny mat instead of a big poofy mat, i am going to learn how to balance whilst jumping at the same time, here is a image of me jumping over three cones one, small two, medium and three, large cones hope you like the image, Warning! - its blurry
Next year in Gymnasitcs I want to learn how to do full bar flips, or learn to do at least 8 cones with no mat and balance that is what i wish to accomplish throughout this journey
Here is a Video of me doing 3 cones with 2 feet, this was when I was getting used to lading straight and now I'm more confident. If you would like to see more videos of my improvements over this period of time comment down below.
