Gymnastics

Mom and Paige have been taking Claire to gymnastics every week. The big girl of the house loves it. She now does a handstand while crawling up the wall with her feet and attempts cartwheels. Oh, and jumping jacks.

I have not seen this class, but mom kindly shot some video. Here's a warmup:



That's Claire standing to the left of the instructor in the dark shirt.

Below, Claire is harder to spot. She's the one in the dark shirt who hops, then runs, across the mat. OK, so she's not following instructions like her father. She's still having fun!



Here Claire jumps with an instructor on the trampoline. This is her favorite thing. Granny, cover your eyes. Claire jumps high.




The last video shows Claire navigating the gym's "obstacle course." She stops midway to tidy up the course. The last two exercises seem like mere kicks, but they apparently are designed to prepare her for handstands and cartwheels.
