Hi Raunchy, I've noticed that these sattvic kids have incredible support of nature. Anything is possible for them. I know of one FF family whose daughter loved Irish step dancing. There was a famous teacher of it in Chicago. But somehow it all worked out and the daughter ended up training with that teacher on a weekly basis. Anything is possible.

Dear Raunchydog, So glad there is some FFL poster who is watching the Olympics and saw the glorious performance of the irreisistible and celestially bouncing Gabby Douglas--what a beautiful creature she is. There is no form of athletics which asks so much as does gymnastics does--not even the Decathlon. I like that someone in the world felt the sensations that I did in watching Gabby's individual performance--and would communicate this on FFL. Does this mean that your granddaughter knows and trains in the same facility as does Gabby Douglas? Gee, sure wish she could train in Des Moines. It's two hours from Fairfield and super expensive. The only way to train there is to live there. Gabby moved there from her family in Virginia Beach when she was only 14 years old. Juliette isn't at that level of performance yet, someday maybe. She's currently training four days a week in Fairfield. It's quite enough for now. Gymnastics has been a wonderful self-confidence builder for her. She works hard and is progressing nicely. We just hope she stays motivated enough to get a collage scholarship. Her first intra-team competition was two weeks ago. She won 1st All Around, 1st Uneven Bars, 1st Beam, 2nd Vault and 2nd Floor Exercise. Beam video: http://youtu.be/lNdWwl4oYpo As you can see the Fairfield Parks and Rec gym where she trains is way too small. Considering the limitations of the facility, I give her coach a lot of credit for starting from scratch with just a few beginners and developing their skills as well as he has. Links to more videos and team pictures are on Facebook: Gymnastics Fans of Fairfield Iowa. Well, I will remember you tonight, Raunchydog, when I watch the NBC coverage. Bob Costas, the Jesus Christ of sports announcers, I figure. But all the NBC colour commentators--for swimming, for gymnastics, for volleyball--they are all superb. We might, here on FFL, have the basis of a water polo team--you know: all that blood in the water left after the Hungary and Soviet Union match in 1956.

In the mean time just enjoy with open mind these first. (For awoelflebater :October 15, 2008. Spanish Riding School in Vienna two young ladies, a 21-year old Austrian and a 17-year old British woman, were the first females in a very long time to be allowed -in revival an old tradition-to ride in the famous baroque Winter Riding School. Until approx. 100 years ago,the end of the Austrian monarchy, only the ladies of the Imperial Court were permitted to regularly take part in the so called Riding Festivals and Carousels) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pLD3-lOh2xcfeature=related --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, awoelflebater no_reply@ wrote: snip Poor Robert. Who has broken your balls? Just watch the power, the grace and the beauty of this dear boy...You don't get these kind of performances if the horse doesn't want to do it. A long time before they hit Grand Prix they would have imploded and exploded. But I know you're just looking for a reaction. Just watch the horses, you're missing something here. But you know that. snip

Only 4'11, just a little bit of a thing, but, oh what a powerhouse. She won gold for Women's All Round. Number one and best in the world. Gabby trains in West Des Moines, Iowa. My granddaughter, a budding gymnast, love-love-loves her! Here's Gabby's winning Floor Exercise: http://www.nbcolympics.com/wthr/video/gymnastics/highlight-gabby-douglas-floor-exercise-in-all-around-final.html The precision and years of training required of a gymnast is every bit as demanding as it is for dressage, both exquisitely beautiful and thrilling to watch.
[FairfieldLife] Re: Jesus God, these horses just kill me
Thanks so much Raunchy, unfortunately in Canada I can't see it but others in the States can. Anyone who loves power, balance, grace, harmony and non-prissiness will love Carl's ride on day 1 in the Grand Prix here that Raunchy kindly posted. Now THAT is a horse, balls and all. --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, raunchydog raunchydog@... wrote: --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, awoelflebater no_reply@ wrote: http://www.dressage-news.com/?p=17028 Carl Hester rode the top scoring ride today for Britain.

Dear Raunchydog, So glad there is some FFL poster who is watching the Olympics and saw the glorious performance of the irreisistible and celestially bouncing Gabby Douglas--what a beautiful creature she is. There is no form of athletics which asks so much as does gymnastics does--not even the Decathlon. I like that someone in the world felt the sensations that I did in watching Gabby's individual performance--and would communicate this on FFL. Does this mean that your granddaughter knows and trains in the same facility as does Gabby Douglas? Well, I will remember you tonight, Raunchydog, when I watch the NBC coverage. Bob Costas, the Jesus Christ of sports announcers, I figure. But all the NBC colour commentators--for swimming, for gymnastics, for volleyball--they are all superb. We might, here on FFL, have the basis of a water polo team--you know: all that blood in the water left after the Hungary and Soviet Union match in 1956. But Share refuses to pull anyone under the water and smash at them with her fists. The rest of us know the rules of water polo and play the game as hard as it has to be played here in the FFL pool. To be an Olympian, might be the best experience anyone can have of physical achievement--and something well beyond that.. Did you see those US women eights row to victory yesterday? The Olympics in London, there has never been anything like it. And the highlight for me is the performance of the US Fab Five--and Gabby especially. Enough. Enjoy Lake Huron. Robin
Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: Jesus God, these horses just kill me
Good God Gabby! That smile on her face at the end! That total being in the zone. Goose bumps just watching her. The sound of the crowd clapping. The unity of it all. Wow and wow and wow and wow I remember some moments of total being in the zone when I played softball.
