7' Acrobatics -we Q- cgi Tammy - Tumbling since 1 year old Tammy Gurganus may be seen inching her way up one of MacArthur's crowded stairways, or impatiently waiting in a mile-long lunch line, looking very much at ease. Unlike most people, the four foot nine-inch fresh- man would be equally at ease doing a handstand on the uneven parallel bars. At 14, she is an accomplished gymnast having awards to her credit ranging from talent show ribbons to National State Championship trophies. When asked why she became involved in gymnastics, Tammy explained that she . . flipped around a lot like most kids do when they're learning to walk, and shortly after her first birthday she started taking tumbling lessons. Her parents, being professional dancerfacrobats, recog- nized her abilities and began working with her. Tammy liked it, and she advanced to gymnastics and dancing classes. When she was 12 years old, she started competing in class 1 gymnastics and Winning ribbons. Tammy received third place on the uneven parallel bars at her first city-wide meet. She then qualified for state competi- tion, where she captured second place in the same cate- gory. ln addition to gymnastics, Tammy also enjoys teach- ing dancing, acrobatics and gymnastics at her parents' studio, the Spring-Cypress Creative Recreational Club. With seriousness in her voice, she tells of the harsh training that a successful gymnast must undergo - 12 to 14 hours of practice per week. To stay in shape, said the talented young lady, you need to practice every day. Tammy's ambitions include going to the Olympics and teaching professionally. Describing her as a pixie, 'tTalent, Fantastic, and an achiever, her friends not only admire and respect her but also expect her to accomplish her goals.
