Mismo’s First Friday is More than just Gymnastics its FUN!
Mismo Gymnastics has the best kids party and kids activities in Missoula, Montana!First Fridays are full of jumping on trampolines, flying through the air, …
Click PLAY or watch it on YouTube.
Founder of Mismo Gymnastics Kelley Durbin (Facebook) was contacted this week by the producers of reality TV show Dance Moms:
They wanted to interview me to see if we might be selected for their reality show…oh the poor women I just gave a lecture to.
I told her that when ever they get around to doing a show about a gym or studio that DOES NOT support drama and prefers to work WITH parents for the betterment of our children’s future, THEN they can call me! Otherwise, I could not support anything that encourages self-promotion, child and parent exploitation, and silliness!
Kelley is recently engaged, by the way. 🙂

world’s eldest kip?
Diana can still do kip on Bars. She’s age eligible for all sorts of discounts … if you know what I mean. ☺
Click PLAY or watch it on YouTube.
If you know of an ‘elderer‘ gymnast who can do kip, leave a comment. (We’ll need video proof as well as a copy of birth certificate.)
Otherwise, Diana is World’s Oldest Kip. I assume she’ll now apply to be sponsored by Tumbl Trak.
Diana trains at Twisters in Port Townsend, Washington. More photos.

I don’t know how old she is, but I do have a video of a 60-year old man from The Netherlands that did giant swings (in special swing-grips). You can see the video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T93p-zT6p3A
