Rhythmic Gymnastics

The Tropicana City Mall was filled with cheers from the crowd at the Junior Unity Rhythmic Gymnastics Carnival. It was right after playgym and we wanted to burn time window shopping that we bumped into the event.

The participants were all getting ready and practicing their routine before executing their finest display on the floor to woo the judges.

What they all had in common was a stick frame. I'm not far from that and blessed with reasonably long legs for a girl my age, I think I might have found an avenue to showcase my 'moves' from playgym and home.

It takes alot of practice especially with their footing to help them create that butterfly effect when they take off and land. These girls makes it look so easy.

The freehand routine seems doable as I've attempted my share of it on bed and the sofa. I've had my bruises and bumps but the hoop and clubs requires massive concentration.

I got the height and with proper attire I could have grabbed a decent finish but I'll save that till I decide if this would be a good activity to participate in.

Here's the link to the article on The Star Metro.
