THEY BEGAN LOOKING AT OPTIONS FOR GYMNASTICS WHEN SHE WAS 4 BUT DIDN'T FULLY GET HER ENROLLED UNTIL SHE WAS FIVE. SHE GOT TO SEE WHAT A TODDLER CLASS WAS LIKE. THEY WERE IMMEDIATELY TOLD MEILYNN WAS TOO ADVANCED AND SHOULD START IN BEGINNERS.
AFTER TWO CLASSES OF BEGINNERS CLASSES, THE COACH REALIZED THAT ALTHOUGH MEILYNN NEVER TOOK GYMNASTICS SHE HAD A LOT OF THE NATURAL TALENT ASSOCIATED WITH GYMNASTICS LIKE POINTING HER TOES AND BEING SUPER STRONG FOR HER AGE. THEY DECIDED SHE SHOULD BE MOVED UP AGAIN TO ADVANCE BEGINNERS. SO WITHIN THE FIRST THREE WEEKS OF CLASSES, MEILYNN WAS MOVED UP TWICE.
COVID HIT AND THEY CONTINUED WITH TRAINING THROUGH ZOOM CLASSES. ONCE BACK INTO THE GYM, MEILYNN GOT AN OFFER TO JOIN THE LAFLEURS TEAM AND JOINED LEVEL 1.
AFTER THE SESSION WAS DONE SHE MOVED ONTO LEVEL 2 AND CONTINUED TO LEARN NEW SKILLS.
