Tonight was the kids' first official gymnastics (or nimakskiks, per Asher) class. The kids were so excited, neither one of them wanted much dinner.
Asher is signed up for a class 15 minutes before Avery's- so we arrived a little early and looked around. There were tons of people there! I was really surprised.
Asher is the only one in his group. His 'coach' Kristen let Avery go to the pre-K room to help him get adjusted. Sure enough, a couple minutes later she emerged sans Asher who she said was doing just dandy. Her class started just after that and there was one other little girl in there. They went downstairs and we got to watch her hopping and stretching. They went over onto the bars and hung upside down then worked on backward somersaults and cartwheels. Asher soon came onto the floor- the only boy in a sea of young girls- and began doing the same thing.
It sure was cool watching the kids listen to their teachers, take turns and follow directions. They both had a fantastic time and can't wait for next week.
