Aspire Training Camp, Vancouver

I dropped in for a day to observe the 6th in a series of Canadian Training Camps led by coaching legend Alex Bard.

Aspire gymnasts aspire to (eventually) make National Team. Canada already has lists for 2020, 2024 and even 2028.

Of course gymnasts this young can move back and forth between J.O. and the elite stream.

Thanks to host Omega Gymnastics.

Apparatus leaders included Michelle Arsenault, Barb Fraser, Julia Spivak, Laurie Henderson and Vladimir Lashin.
