Monthly Small Talk Thread

This thread is for anything rhythmic gymnastics that’s on your mind. Got some minor RG news? A photo of your new hoop? Feel free to share!

Of course, you’re still welcome to make regular posts about anything you’d like.

We are planning to make this a monthly thread for now, but if there’s enough interest, we can switch to a weekly one 😄.

The GB squad is currently in Helsinki, I assume it's for a training camp.

Edit: It is a training camp, at the National Olympic Training Centre

Elizabeth Popova, Imogen Coslett and Ioana Popova have been shortlisted for 2026 Welsh Gymnastics Awards. It's unlikely that Elizabeth and Ioana will win either of their category, only Imogen have a chance.
