MxP Mika & Natalie GOLD |
WE. ARE. BACK!!
Its a new season, new competitions, new grades, and new challenges. We kicked off our season with a large invitational at Hollington GC in Hastings, near the cost - where Leora (Ashira's mum) and Karen (Layla's mum), both made full use of!!! After asking their lovely daughters where they were, it became apparent that offspring will quickly rat on their governing bodies... telling me they were at the beach!!!
Moving on from building sand castles... the competition was both Acrobatics & Tumbling. We competed both acro and tumbling in the morning and then mainly tumbling in the afternoon. The morning competition was the highlight of the day. Our WP and our MxP both performed very elegant and soft routines, which had parents and coaches commenting positively on the choreography of the routines. Unfortunately due to mounting technical errors, our WP of Olivia & Eden placed 10th.
However our mixed pair of Mika & Natalie came out on top claiming their first competitive GOLD medal!! They actually came out with an artistry score of 9.45!!!!! In fear of exaggerating, that is a MONSTROUS artistry score for such a level of acrobatics. They should be proud, proud, proud. As are we :)
In tumbling, Alix Stagg came out on top in her Grade 4 tumbles, above her competitor, whereas our other tumblers found it tough to get their mojo back whilst tumbling. Special shout out to our Sophie Boehler who only completed her tumbles the DAY BEFORE the competition... and still placed 4th. You go Soph! :)
