Behind the Smiles — before the music,
before the counts,
before a single routine comes together —
We start together.
Stretching side by side.
Checking in.
Taking a breath as a team.
Then come two laps — not for speed, but for confidence. For stamina. For I can do hard things.
After that, it’s the basics:
✨ straight jumps
🐸 frog jumps
🦀 crab walks
🐻 bear walks
They may look simple, but behind the scenes they’re building strength, coordination, balance, and endurance — and something even bigger.
Belief.
Belief in their bodies.
Belief in their effort.
Belief that they belong exactly as they are.
Behind the scenes isn’t perfect.
It’s a bit loud at times.
A little silly.
And full of encouragement.
This is what lives behind the smiles —
where confidence is built long before the routine ever hits the mat. 💜
👉 Like this if progress matters more than performance.
Every athlete is different — and that’s exactly how it should be 💜
