How do you think I did? ACRO class video?
Summer acro class, 4 weeks, 6 girls ranging in age from 10 to me at 2 months away from 40. There were a few tricks that I didn't tape cause I forgot to (straddle & pike jumps) or weren't able to do (back kickover- I was so close but could get over from vertical) But based on this video from 4 years ago https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1IJ33vt_mDQ do you think the roundoff and cartwheels look better back then or do they look better now. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cTXmJAugGDQ I think they look better now, based off the fact I didn't have to have a running start to do them. So how do you think I did for my age? Did this inspire you to try something new, did it make you think "Hey if she can do it, I can try too"? I know the girls in class were impressed and I heard one of them say, "I'm about to be shown up". The Teacher told me I was her hero for doing as well as I did. With the exception of the video I did 4 years ago, some of the things we did in class I haven't done in 20+ years.
Bluebell thank you so much. First thing you learn is if foot is off the mat it's pointed :) Never forgot that.
Zhops, yes I was 31 when I started. :) Love you. :)

This is a shout-out to anyone who has asked (or thought of asking) "I am X years old. Is it too late to learn to dance?" Meet Lizardmomma, who didn't start taking classes until she was in her 30s, if I recall correctly. She studies ballet, jazz, hip hop and now acro, where she is showing up all the young pups. She is your inspiration and we should all stand and applaud.
