It's been a long and hard four year journey in gymnastics. But every start has to come to an end and it's finally my competitive gymnastics time to come to an end. I've always pictured myself competiting in optional levels but I guess time just wasn't on my side. I'm going off to college now (yes im that old lol) and competiting gymnastics while commuting to college and having just social time in general will nearly kill me lol so I've decided to let competeting in gymnastics go. Of course I plan to attend open gym from time to time but training for hours in the gym just isn't the time that I have right now. I'll definatly miss gymnastics so much because it had such a big impact in my life. It's taught me determination, focus, the will to never give up, control physical and mental pain, and as well as keeping fit.
This video is basically to thank everyone who's so kindly supported me through these years. If you've followed me from the start, you would know that I had a rough start but ended up with the most amazing memories. I hope that I've encouraged a few to start gymnastics or anything if you're passionate at it at any age. I hope to continue with youtube and although it won't be footage at the gym, I'll definatly try to make some small clips from home. haha. Hope we keep in touch!!

  • what level did you reach before you left?

  • @thelaurenator3008 Level 7.

  • males can do gymnastic?

  • @TheGiorgio1982 Of course! 

  • aww your leaving gymnastics? I always thought it was so cool that you were so determined. I did this with figure skating but it does get expensive and time consuming. I switched to dance because I could practice it more often so maybe that could be an option for you too! and have fun in college!

  • @ciaoskater Yeah, I quit about 5 months ago because competitive gymnastics is super time consuming and with college, its almost impossible to do that so I decided to stop competitive gymnastics and just do it as a hobby~ I still visit from time to time but ohmy have I lost my strength lol

see all
