[quote=Anonymous]I remember my kid, around 6, saying everyone at school could do a cartwheel except her. I put her in a parks and rec gymnastics class figured mg it would be fun and she'd learn a cartwheel. They didn't teach cartwheels! Some kids came in able to do them and some didn't and the coaches offered no tips for how to get better. So she still didn't know. I tried to teach her but truthfully my cartwheels are crap (especially now) so that wasn't useful. Then one day she came home and said a friend had taught her at recess. Sure enough, she had a somewhat wobbly but decent form cartwheel. It's been a couple years and now she does acro at a dance studio and loves it. I think the reason other girls learned before her is older sisters. It's funny that cartwheels and other gymnastics/dance moves are social currency with girls, but they are.[/quote]
