Chloe Heffernan Rhythmic Gym Ball 1992

yeah shes not that flexible as most rhythmic gymnasts are. ive seen rhythmic gymnasts that r 10 times better than her. but shes a better ballerina

@julie101rox The Rhythmic code was very different in 1992. Chloe was just not allowed to do all the flexibility that gymnasts can do today. No walkovers allowed. However the tricks the gymnasts did then are seldom seen today. They took risks Triple rolls and juggles with the clubs were normal and fun. Ballet and gymnastic technique has come a long way and will no doubt go further in the future which is all to the good.

@JanetteHeffernan well yeah thats true. but i still think that she makes a better ballerina. i didnt say shes a bad rhythmic gymnast shes good. but shes a better ballerina

[JanetteHeffernan]

@julie101rox Have a look at her clubs. Remember the code was very different. The video is below in the response. Thanks for watching. Chloe is 33 now and just had a baby. She stills does class when she can.

Thanks so much for the update! 1992 was indeed already quite a while ago... Im not surprised she got an offer to dance professional ballet. But cool that she decided to follow her own aspirations. She must be a great teacher too!

I watch this video a lot- i cannot get over the beauty of her talent and how dance and gymnastics are combined; really A-MAZING!

(I was a balket dancer myself- but never THIS good!!)

[outthehead]

very graceful, but pretty much no felxibility whatsoever :)

[Kevinsf]

no flexibility? She's not a contortionist jack ass!

[jupie1979]

Absolutely stunning, charming and very graceful way of doing gymnastics. Does anyone know if she still trains? She has exquisite talent!!

[JanetteHeffernan]

This was a long time ago! Chloe still dances ballet. After rhythmics Chloe was chosen to go to The Royal Ballet School in London but instead she went to university and studied Italian. She became a Senior Scholar. She now teaches dance in schools as it is part of the normal curriculum.

for the last part she should have closed her feet in fifth before doing developpe. but of hellss. it was WAY BACK in 1992! haha!

[lucypittt]

wow!!!

[BalletAnnie]

Being a Ballerina and Gymnast is not easy to cope. But it would help her in her ballet or gymnastic for having knowledge in both. What a rare talent!

Superb

She should have been a ballerina. Nice body, lines and legs.
