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.
2012 Olympian Kim Bui, the 27-year-old who missed nearly all of 2015 due to injury, will make her competitive turn at Bundesliga this weekend, where she hopes to impress enough for a spot on the country’s European Championships team. …
How did that go for Kim?

Canada’s Ken Ikeda who recently competed at Test Event is age-34.
He’s a world class Pommel Horse man.
In the Cash and Carry Invitational gymnasts of different age divisions compete against one another for CA$H they carry away home.
Look who bested the Pommel legend. 🙂
