gymnastics Kaur kramm 11.A The real thing Gymnastics is a sport involving performance of exercises requiring physical strength, flexibility, agility, coordination, and balance. Internationally, all of the gymnastic sports are governed by the Fédération Internationale de Gymnastique (FIG) or International Federation of Gymnastics (IFG) with each country having its own national governing body affiliated to FIG. Competitive Artistic gymnastics is the best known of the gymnastic sports. Etymology The word derives from the Greek (gymnastike), fem. of (gymnastikos), "fond of athletic exercises", from (gymnasia), "exercise" and that from (gymnos), "naked", because athletes exercised and
strength, and must possess psychological attributes such as the ability to compete under intense pressure, in which one mistake can cost them the title, and the discipline and work ethic to practice the same skills over and over again. Currently a gymnast can perform in the individual event or in the group event. They perform routines in 12 x 12 meter areas, accompanied by music. In competitions, female participants typically wear leotards and rhythmic gymnastic toe shoes. Kabaeva is one of the most decorated gymnasts in rhythmic gymnastic history, with 2 Olympic medals, 14 World Championship medals, and 25 European Championship medals. She started Rhythmic Gymnastics at age 3, with Coach Margarita Samuilovna. Kabaeva completed her career after the 2007 Season. She is a Russian politician now.

Introduction The purpose of this report is to give an overview of sporting facilities in our school and give some recommendations to improve it. My findings are presented below. Places and rooms Teachers would like us to be outside as much as possible, so majority of lessons take place outdoors. Students can have their lessons free at Tehvandi Sports Centre. In case of a bad weather we usually do our lessons in big and modern sports hall. Equipment Students can use different balls and other gymnastic equipment for free. If a student does not have skis in winter season, he or she can rent skis and ski boots without paying money. PE lessons Usually there are 2-3 PE lessons per week and 45 minutes long. Boys and girls are seperated and therefore students have different teachers. Overall we have 3 PE teachers. Conclusion To sum up, we have excellent sporting facilities in our school, but I think it would be much better, if lessons were 90 minutes long twice a week.
