Mila (age 8) and Zadie (age 7) Garcia

Mila: I am so happy that my sister Zadie is with me on Pre-Team this year!

I was a little scared to go to Pre-Team last year but once I saw Coach Bianka, I felt more comfortable because I did private lessons with her. My first gymnastics skill I learned was a backbend!

I really like gymnastics summer camp at the Rye Y because I like bridge races and the handstand contest!

My favorite gymnastics event is Beam and Floor.

The Rye Y is a great place to have fun and do lots of activities!

Zadie: I love learning all gymnastics skills! I like bars because I’m working on back hip circles and I also won that hanging contest! I also like tumble track!

I like summer camp at the Rye Y because I like handstand contests and learning how to do back handsprings.

I am very happy to be on pre-team and being with my big sister Mila makes me feel confident! I can’t wait to do competitions like my sister Mila did last year on Pre-Team. I have a friend named Lily who is also on Pre-team and I have known her for three years!

I also really like swimming ay the Rye Y!
