Camian Academy

Today was the first day of the first regular 8 week session at the gym where my big kids take gymnastics. Ani had already decided that this would be her last 8 weeks. She starts Irish dancing in about 3 weeks. Cameron wasn’t liking gymnastics much anymore because this summer was absolutely awful. The teams were training so it was chaotic in the gym and kids who had never taken lessons before filled up the classes, but, even worse, since the teams got first dibs on the equipment, the kids barely got to do much more than some floor exercises and the trampoline for an hour a week all summer long.

Cameron had said he’s like to take golf lessons and then swimming lessons and then martial arts lessons (in that order) but I wanted him to have a regular class before he really decided to stop gymnastics. I had forgotten just how natural Cameron is on the equipment. He went right back to nice vaults and perfect rolls on the bar. But after class was over he said he was sure he wanted to stop after the session is over. He is finished with gymnastics lessons. I think the terrible classes over the summer killed his enjoyment. So I guess it’s on to golf!
