Life in a Leo Episode 3: Interview with Bailey McCabe from Auburn Gymnastics

This week I got to interview Bailey McCabe from Auburn Gymnastics. Bailey is entering her third season as a level 10 and is a Sophomore in High School. She competed at JO Nationals in both 2016 and 2017. This year she upgraded her vault to a Yurchenko Full and her beam, where she is doing a triple series (back handspring, layout step-out, layout step-out) and dismounting with a side aerial connected to a full. Her favorite events are bars and beam.  Look for Bailey this season. You can find her on Instagram @baileymccabee or on YouTube.  Good luck Bailey!

Life in a Leo Episode 19: Artistry
Life in a Leo Episode 19: Artistry

May 25, 2018

This week I discuss the three things that judges look for when evaluating artistry on floor. I break down each deduction and provide my best interpretation of the JO Code of Points. The music in the episode is Stevie Ray Vaughn's Little Wing which I reference when I talk about my floor routines. This was the music I had when I competed in college. 

Please take a look at our blog post on www.leotard.com this week to watch the YouTube videos of the three routines I reference for having wonderful artistry (Yay, you're here!). I also think it's worth watching the profile of Alexei Ratmansky on YouTube, some Misty Copeland videos and Tiler Peck to see how they create such an amazing story with their dance, choreography, expression, and quality of movement. I think this provides some unique perspective to athletes typically focused on only gymnastics. 

Hope everyone has a great holiday weekend and good luck to everyone competing or TOPS testing. Keep dancing and don't forget to point your toes!

Life in a Leo Episode 18: Interview with Hannah Kaufman

May 18, 2018

This week I interviewed our amazing summer intern, Hannah Kaufman. In addition to being our intern, Hannah is studying dance and sociology at Rutgers University. She got her start in dance doing jazz and hip-hop but quickly found a passion for ballet. As Hannah got older, her style shifted and she discovered something called Gaga. 

Hannah shares her experiences as a dancer, a Rebecca's Mom intern and what she hopes to achieve after she graduates college. 

We also would like to send a shout out to Hannah Clark at Azarian gymnastics. She is a level 9 Westerns Floor Champion!! What a huge accomplishment. Hannah, congrats and keep up the amazing work. Hope you've started learning some fun new upgrades for next season. 

Let us know what you think? Email me, rebecca@leotard.com with any feedback or ideas for future episodes. We can't wait to hear from you. Hope you all have a great weekend and don't forget to point your toes. xo

Life in a Leo Episode 17: Failure
Life in a Leo Episode 17: Failure

May 11, 2018

This week was another solo episode. Next week I will be back with an interview so stay tuned. 
The topic for this week was inspired by an experience I had when I was volunteering for an organization I feel passionately about. I was asked to work at a phone bank and it was one of the most frustrating experiences I have had. I wasn't even asking for money, but people just didn't want to hear what I had to say. This experience left me feeling rejected and frustrated. I felt like I had failed the organization. 
I was also inspired by the #gymnasticsfailchallenge. This viral movement has humanized all these gymnasts but also provided us with lots of comedy. I believe everyone is posting moments where they aren't hurt and able to walk away from the fail. 
Hope you enjoy my thoughts and take something positive away from what I share. We would love to hear from you, so please message me - rebecca@leotard.com. 
Good luck to everyone competing this weekend! And don't forget to point your toes :)
