A book entitled Little Girls n Pretty Boxes discusses some of the apparent abuses in gymnastics, especially in regard to promoting eating disorders.  The book painted the entire port with a very broad brush, says Ayars.  Some of those abuses may take plac at the elite level, which is what you see at the Olympics, but the same can be said for other sports at the elite level. Truthfully, the sport that I hear receiving the most criticism for pressuring girls about their weight is cheer-leading. <br> If you look at the gymnasts who compete at the junior Olympic level, continues Ayars,  the problems described in that book really don t take place with any greater frequency than they do in other sports. And if you look at college ymnastics, you re not going to see a bunch of emaciated little girlsthey re athletic, healthy-looking young women. Further,Ayars believes that all athletes can benefit from participating in the sport at some level.  It doesn t matter what sport somebody plays, gymnastic training will hel them be a better all-around athlete. <br>The Sandhills Academy of Gymnastics offers a variety of gymnastic progrms, holding classes for those as young as 16 months all the way up to competitive junior Olympic teams. They also have popular recreational and tumbling classes. Ayars says that gymnastics usually costs more than most other spors, which he attributes to a lack of support frm taxpayers who are more willing to subsidize main-stream sports such as baseball.<br>Ayars is vocal on the subject of how public support affects gymnastics in this country:  Mn s gymnastics has been hurting at the international level because it s really developed at the collegiate level, and over the past 10 to 12 years the college men s gymnastics program has really been guted. At the last Olympics our teams didn t do too well, but since then our international women s teams have been doing much better. < S NRj9w˪}1@rJQ,rT[Fv_Ç}2/VeBaȞzopc?MqOCˍx(>y~/?[_rgvWvzPK8 tNYLС_XS _oo#̐v@k(@'4hC}t~1pAQ-{XNE)`a,vw,XypJ NF0MN(i_NQiSDVnß-ldSፚXXIR;cr)"//zƄvH,hEw2g _[[k&h-QJxe_(ytIܥm,"'KSt[{mR-[고 $bh>fͪ"R2EGχNYH~gq@=j[&`V(\/^>b7Kk`4l5 8;g!} 83WƳSq, F" N5/gba.xe[&Q11(kι5Wb􋛞-M,Nl*x)7R$؃S(!W[w$ I.; /x|3BSeiS_8-p\m5Ly ua,R*Hdralld@/ɝ^S`Mm{e@O-fG*-%l,&If;>e~S[~e+ `6l {5uiqhS]KYHHdgeU?DϞi*i\['JzԒי>ٍ:Qs1ߕm!ՖʣF8!K:eW+J^Jww]Le 3)Msh9{>}o$ى~
