Goodbye to You

Another quick video edit.



Within the last year, we lost a few girls (Ana, Michele, Ash'lee, Mackie); within the beginning of this year, we lost Brenda and Elana, with other girls who drifted and became inconsistent in their workouts with pressures of school and waning interest, buttressed with knowledge that the gym would be closing.

I thought I'd include some footage of Ana, Brenda, and Elana; but much of the rest of the footage is shot from the last two months, where attendance was low and the gym rather cold and lonely (Keli had a solo workout, MLK Day)...semi-depressing and struggling with morale(at least in my mind- maybe others were having a cheerful good time).

I bookended the video with Erin and Thea. Being a quick edit, it just seemed the thing to do. I'm sure I'll feel differently tomorrow. But for now, it's a wrap.

Thea acquires her strength by getting piggyback and shoulder rides from the older girls.
