"A little less conversation, a little more action, please..."

What do you get when you cross a chatterbox with a diligent worker? Juliaaaaaaa!

Julia transferred from Broadway (not the stage theater) to SMGC.....over a year ago? I'm sure she knows the date. I'm thinking end of 2006.



The first day, she was very quiet. I thought to myself, "Oh, great...we have a very focused, quiet worker with a singular purpose of getting better at gymnastics and epitomizing a productive work ethic. She'll be a good influence on the other girls." It took me about a month later to realize that first day or week or two, it was probably just the residual afterburn of several years at Broadway ("no talking!") and maybe some first-time jitters in a new gym. I guess it didn't take all that long for the other SMGC motor-mouths to break her in. (Incidentally, you can see her when she was about 10 yrs young and fresh onto Broadway team).

This video was about six months in the making. Julia actually is a very good worker (who happens to also balance it out with a lot of mouth-movement). She's one of my favorite people in the whole gym. Everyone seems to love her (even when they've never even met her- Juliaaaaa!). Who do we love the best?

Juuuuliaaaaa!!!!
