ANOTHER COMPETITION WEEKEND IN THE BOOKS!

Our Level 3s had an INCREDIBLE meet! They brought home 1ST PLACE AS A TEAM and claimed the TOP THREE ALL-AROUND SCORES of the entire competition so far!

38.175 ALL-AROUND!

S put together an outstanding all-around performance, earning an impressive 38.175 across all four events! Consistency, hard work, and attention to detail matter, and we’re so proud of this accomplishment!

VAULT POWER!

L absolutely crushed vault with an incredible 9.825! What a score! Way to bring that vault to the competition floor!

Our Level 3s are showing what happens when hard work in the gym starts translating to competition success. We couldn’t be prouder of these athletes and the progress they’re making!

Our Level 5s are continuing to work toward bringing their best gymnastics from practice to competition. Sometimes, the challenge isn’t learning the skills, it’s trusting your training and performing under pressure. We’re working through that process together, one correction, one routine, and one competition at a time.

We celebrate the victories, learn from the challenges, and keep pushing forward. Every meet is another opportunity to grow!

Stronger skills. Greater confidence. Better gymnastics. One meet at a time.

A better vault starts long before the vault itself!

Following our Level 5 front handspring progress, we’re taking you behind the scenes of our vault clinic!

Every drill has a purpose. From developing power and blocking to refining body position and improving flight, we’re working on the details that turn a good vault into a great one.

We’re making progress, but there’s still work to do! More drills, more corrections, and more refinement. That’s how we keep moving forward.

Stay tuned for more vault work! Don't miss our next Vault Clinic December 5!

Can you spot the differences?

Two Level 5 front handsprings side by side! Small details can make a BIG difference in vault.

We’re making progress, but we’re not done yet! More drills, more corrections, and more refinement ahead as we work toward an even stronger front handspring.

At International Elite Gymnastics, we don’t stop at getting the skill. We keep working to make it better!

What differences do YOU notice?

New Skill Alert!!

Our Level 2s have been hard at work on their upgrades over the last couple of weeks, with a big focus on their back hip circles.

Yesterday, they were looking consistent enough that we told them to play around with the double back hip circle if they felt comfortable.

And they NAILED IT.

This is one of the things we do differently at International Elite Gymnastics: we don’t wait until the season is over to start preparing for the next level.

When an athlete is ready, we start introducing the skills they’ll need next. Our goal is to have those big skills established before the season ends, giving our athletes the entire off-season to refine them, build consistency, and develop the strength and form needed to compete them confidently.

It’s not just about getting the skill. It’s about giving them time to clean it up and make it competition-ready.

Level by level, skill by skill, we’re building the foundation for what’s next.

TEAM TRYOUTS: NOVEMBER 1

JOIN A WINNING COMPETITIVE TEAM
Are you considering a move for next season?

Now is the time to start planning. Our current gymnasts have already begun working on upgrades for next season. Athletes who wait until after State Championships may miss valuable preparation time.

LEVELS ACCEPTED
We are accepting athletes in Levels 1–5.

WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR
We’re seeking athletes with:

• Passion
• Work ethic
• Drive
• A willingness to accept corrections
• A commitment to continued improvement

TRYOUT AREAS
Tryouts will focus on:

• Flexibility
• Shapes and form
• Conditioning
• Skills

QUALITY OVER QUANTITY
We intentionally keep our team small so coaches can provide:

• Hands-on instruction
• Individual corrections
• Personalized attention
• Support for continued development

ELIGIBILITY AND ACCEPTANCE
• There is no limit to the number of athletes who may attend tryouts.
• A maximum of 3 new athletes will be accepted per level.
• Athletes who pass the initial tryout will be invited to train alongside our current team before State Championships.
• Final team selections will be made before State Championships.

This evaluation period allows coaches to assess each athlete in our training environment. It also gives athletes and their families the opportunity to experience our program firsthand.

WHY START NOW?
State Championships mark the end of the current season, not the beginning of preparation for the next one.

Starting the process now allows selected athletes to:

• Begin training with us immediately after State Championships
• Take advantage of the full off-season
• Develop new skills
• Adjust to our training environment
• Prepare for the upcoming season

WHAT. A. WEEKEND.

This weekend brought some BIG wins, some tough lessons, and a whole lot to be proud of.

Our Level 3s absolutely showed up! They took 1st place across all four events and All-Around in the Senior A division, as well as 1st place across all four events and All-Around in the Senior B division. We also took 3rd place All-Around in Senior B!

And to top it all off… 1st place Team!

And they did it with a team of just 3 gymnasts against some seriously large teams.


Our Level 5s had a tougher competition this time around. Bars gave us some challenges, and we didn’t come home with the team win this weekend. But that’s gymnastics, you win some, you lose some, you learn, you adjust and you come back stronger.

And even on a tougher day, our girls still brought home some impressive individual results:

🥇 3 first-place finishes
🥈 1 second-place finish
🥉 2 third-place finishes
🥉 3rd place All-Around

And one moment deserves a special shoutout…

E’s floor music cut out in the middle of her routine.

Did she stop? Nope.

She kept going, stayed composed, and finished her routine without missing a beat. THAT is the kind of moment we love to see, because gymnastics isn’t just about what happens when everything goes right. It’s about how you respond when it doesn’t.

We’re proud of our girls for the medals, the team win, the tough routines, the moments of composure, and even the mistakes that give us something to work on.

Every competition is part of the process. Every meet makes us better. And we’re just getting started.
