Competitive Women's Artistic Gymnastics (WAG)
Women's Artistic Gymnastics is a challenging, yet very rewarding sport. It requires mastery on 4 apparatus: Vault, Uneven Bars, Balance Beam, and Floor Exercise
Athletes train to have great strength, flexibility, and technical abilities on the 4 apparatus. They develop terrific body awareness, coordination, and toughness through specific technique and execution of the skills.
Vault: This event requires power. The gymnast sprints towards a stationary apparatus and tumbles over top of it. The gymnast performs flips and twists throughout the air until their landing.
Uneven Bars: This event requires swinging and coordination. It is considered one of the more challenging events for athletes. There are 2 bars set at different heights. The gymnast performs a series of elements on each bar. Some of the more advanced skills can involve releasing and catching the bar.
Balance Beam: This event requires an unbelievable amount of balance and coordination. The Balance Beam is only 4 inches wide. Gymnasts perform dance, acrobatic series, leaps and turns all while trying not to fall off.
Floor Exercise: This event requires power, dance, and elegance. Competing on the floor exercise is done to up to 1.5 minute long music where athletes will learn choreography that will help create an amazing display of tumbling and artistry.
