[quote=Anonymous]Most gyms will have classes for your kids age. My older daughter started at 8 in a recreational class for 7-12 year olds and most of the girls were 4th-6th grade, my daughter was the youngest. As she progressed through the recreational  classes even though they were all for 7-12 most of the girls were 11-12. A year later she made the Xcel team , if that’s something she’s interested in, which has a wide range of ages , at 9 she is the youngest but they considered her too old for the JO team. My 6 year old is on Pre-team for the JO team. 
   And I disagree with other posters discouraging gymnastics  , the only thing that’s really expensive more than other sports is if you do go the JO route which at 10 isn’t likely. I found the rec classes not any more expensive than dance and the Xcel team fees are cheaper than my younger daughters Pre-team classes. Most sports are more expensive once you go beyond recreational classes. There are a wide range of body types at our gym in rec classes and on teams. I wouldn’t say anyone looks skinny , all the girls are very muscular . [/quote]
