"Out of the Blue"

Erica joined SMGC over the summer, having arrived from Vermont. Happily, she's made Los Angeles her home, now.

Having been out of gymnastics for a while, she signed up for our summer camp program. Erica had some demons to overcome. Having previously suffered a bad spill, her confidence was still shaken over a basic move: a round-off backhandspring.

Her struggles with her mental block and a recent song inspired me with the theme for this video. The song is written and performed by her coach, Lillian Carrico. I think it's a really good song, deserving of airplay and some notoriety for Lilly. She should be making albums (but only if she can still coach, too; because she's good at that, as well).

That is not only a good song...it is an AMAZINGLY good song. Can you make a video of her singing the song? And where is her homepage? I would like to hear more of her. :-)

Cheers from a random youtuber

I apologize for forgetting to get back to this comment. I wish you had left a contact address. Anyway, in the off-chance that you see this, or if anyone else is interested, you can visit Lilly's profile and her song here.
