Ella competed in her first gymnastics meet of the season this afternoon at the Holiday Critique Meet at the Tacoma Convention Center. This was Ella's first time competing in this meet that is a bit unique as they do not hand out medals at the end. Instead, the coaches give critiques to the group of gymnasts after completing each event throughout the meet. Ella did a great, earning an 8.2 on beam, an 8.55 on vault, an 8.65 on floor, and a 9.1 on bars with an overall score of 34.5. This is a great start to the season and I know that Ella will continue to grow and progress over the next few months. Great job, Ella!
Although I took videos of each of Ella's four events, I did take some pictures of her warming up on each event. Here she is warming up on the beam.

My favorite picture from the entire evening. Ella doing a twist off of the table. Look at that awesome, sideways position she is in!
