This modern day and age.
The world is advancing remarkably fast, perhaps too fast for us to pay attention to the consequences of it's pace or it's power of distraction. Not too long ago, we used landlines to make calls only to family and friends. Now we have mobile touch screen phones, well known as smart phones, that provide us a mass amount of knowledge and phone calls aren't used as often as text messages. It may be distracting as the internet is filled with a substantial amount of entertainment and we can not forget that we in America still have the issue that still rises, which is obesity in the youth.

The age of gymnastics is unknown, could be as old as thousands of years as a sport or practice from Greece but don't take it as fact instead an educational guess. Long enough to know that it is well reputable sport in the Olympics and an impressive sport at that. Challenging the body to be able to push it's limits in strength and flexibility. However that is not to neglect the mind as well, as it takes a good amount of focus and dedication to execute actions fluently and accurately. The longer anyone does the practice, they learn a discipline that can be applied to anything and especially school! Learning to feel great about one self's success and support their peers in class, learning social skills and a strong healthy foundation in their life.
