Chains. People. and Us.
Well I guess the team has already gone to a new level. Although training today wasn't very productive, it is always encouraging to see that all of you has improved by bounds compared to the time when you peeps first started.
I would particually like to give kudos to edward and aihui..for their eagerness and willingness to excel. Aihui was complaining that she wanted to do more stunts and ed wanted to try a standing back tuck on the floor. Because your request really made me really happy. Really.
However, I would still like all of you to understand that i'm going heavy on basics first before i can allow you to venture to another level. Please do not have the impression that "I have a minor row in the team and therefore I am nothing." That is not true. If the shoulder stand loader does not load the mid-tier up the shoulder stand then my 221 cannot be executed. So who is more important here? loader, shoulder stand base, mid-tier, or top flyer?
Everybody is.
Likewise for gymnastics, it is important for you peeps to continually improve yourselves, because this is a skill that requires a lot of practice and discipline. Look at eddie. Although he's not very tall and doesn't look very reliable ( ha !!) but he is what he is today because he has put in a lot of effort in training his gym. More than me in fact.
Remember that every individual is equally important and only when everybody improves then the team can improve as a whole. Being able to do fantastic stunts alone doesn't do the team any good unless everybody can do it as a whole. Cherish, encourage and help each other to grow. Once everybody is able to see cheer as an addiction and not an obligation (haha. sounds familiar hor? ) will we then be able to form a niche that we're able to associate and identify ourselves in.
Because afterall, the chain is only as strong as the weakest link.
