A few successes this week...
Erin hasn't done giants since summer, but got them back on Saturday, all on her own.
Alexandra Kroner is a graduate of the old SMGC kinder/intro classes. She did a fronthandspring last week; and this past Monday, I let her do her backhandspring by herself from the trampoline:
Finally...it's about time, Thea:
Thea started hitting full routines right before the Lights Holiday Invitational (she missed a giant on bars, probably nervous about the dismount that would follow). This is from December 2:
Annisa's been borderline on her tramp backhandsprings. Today (yes, the gym was open Christmas Eve!), we took the training wheels off for real and let her do the majority of them, unassisted.
I'll try to add her video clip here, as well.

Wait.. are there supposed to be other video's uploaded too? *wants to see giants*
I was planning on doing Annisa's, but not yours because it's not like you've not done giants before- bigger and better than the baby steps you're taking now getting your confidence back up. The ones you were doing earlier in the year were fine. If you really want them posted up though...
I just finished a thea video, btw, of nothing but almost 2 years of working on flyaways. Just clips strewn back-to-back. She's had so much trouble, I was surprised to find a clip where she did her layout from a swing without being touched- and that was a long time ago!!! I've been doing the same on Nik(k)i's blind change; am also working on another Nik(k)i video at the same time.
