Colissa had a ball doing her first mud run! 4 miles, 17 obstacles...she was ready! She made it to the finish and earned a new type of medal! Way to go! #mudgirlruncharlotte#thisis7#mud#fun#whph
Competition season has wrapped and Colissa is busy working to be ready to test out of Levels 4 and 5 this summer. Since she was still 6 years old last summer, she was not able to participate in the Level 4 test out meet with the rest of her team. But she is ready to do both in a few short months! Wish her luck! ❤️ #WorkHardPlayHard#thisis7#Colissa#gymnast#gymnastics#practice
Colissa at the 2024 Xcel Gold NC State Championship with @flipforcegym
I am so proud of how hard she works. Her drive and determination will certainly take her far!
A special thanks to her coaches for the work they put in and to @taylordmadeproduction for capturing all of her meets this season! 👏🏿 The competition season is a wrap, but practice never stops in this year-round sport. It is upgrade season! Until next year.....❤️ #WorkHardPlayHard#whph#123ffg#3xStateChamp#2xRegionalEliteTeamQualifier#thisis7

Please allow me to introduce....
THE THREE TIME STATE CHAMPION.....
COLISSA BYRD!!!
Vault - 9.350 - 3rd Place
Bars - 9.725 - 1st Place
Beam 9.925 - 1st Place
Floor - 9.825 - 1st Place
All-Around - 38.825 - 1st Place
With the third highest AA score in the State of NC (out of 398 Xcel Gold gymnasts), she also qualified for the NC State Team at Regionals for the second year in a row! #proudmama At Regionals, the gymnasts with the top 8 scores from their respective State Championship compete against one another.
Colissa's gym has opted to not attend Regionals this year in order to focus on nailing the skills needed to test out of the next level this summer. Colissa will be working to test out of Levels 4 and 5 this July. Wish her luck!
A special shout out to our village who came out in force to show their support!! ❤️
Videos from States will be shared at a later date. #mamatired 😂
Colissa had her last gymnastics meet of the season. This meet, she was very excited and performed her little heart out. She surprised herself by getting TWO 9.9s. Each time she was all smiles, and her teammates celebrated with her....with hugs and high fives! It was a great meet, and Colissa rocked it!
Now....let's get ready for States (in 2 weeks)!! 🥰😊
**I do not own the rights to this song**
The first meet of the season is officially in the books. 🫣 This meet I had my first ever fall off of the balance beam in competition but got back up and finished. Shaking those first meet jitters off. 💫 #workhardplayhard#whph

The gymnastics meet season is quickly approaching and Colissa is excited to compete Xcel Gold! The holidays are near and she will turn 7 in about 4 weeks! So many wonderful things! Looking forward to whatever is ahead!
