DD (9), is getting ready to compete juvenile for the first time next month. 8 days ago, she got her new music and the start of her new program. Every weekend, their rink does a 'show' where the kids get to practice in their competition outfits in front of all the parents-- simulating competition with a 5 minute warm up etc.
Earlier this week, the program was very clunky, and she wasn't able to land any of the doubles in it, and yet just a few days later, she managed double lutz loop double loop; double flip; double lutz; her axel of course and flubbed only the double loop...but then went back and did it later.
She was so pleased with herself and I was proud of her hard work this week! I think she will be ok!
