Just recently, Katelyn Ohashi and Mckenzie Wofford won 10 medals in the Bumbo Cup held in Pretoria, South Africa. These 2 amazing girls won a bronze medal, four silver and 5 gold medals.

Do you want to be like Katelyn and Mckenzie? Great gymnasts train well and choose the right leotards for their competitions. As a gymnast, you know that picking out the right leotard for an event is important. Aside from getting a good design, you should also think of the material and quality of your gymnastic apparel. You can't wear clothes that will make it hard for you to move around. Look for competitive leotards that will help you perform better.

If you want to buy gymnastics leotards and other apparel, there are plenty of options to choose from. You’ll be surprised at the variety of designs and colors available.

One option is to look online. A lot of reputable gymnastics companies have already established their online presence like GK Elite. The advantage of buying clothing for gymnastics online is that you would have more variety to choose from. Online shopping is more convenient especially if one is very particular about the design and would like to have more choices.

JCPENNEY, WARNER BROS. CONSUMER PRODUCTS AND OLYMPIC GOLD MEDALIST AND WORLD CHAMPION NASTIA LIUKIN KICK-OFF FIVE-MARKET TOUR TO SUPPORT LAUNCH OF SUPERGIRL BY NASTIA

New York City Played Host to Liukin for first JCPenney Tour Stop to Celebrate Girl Empowerment, Individuality and the Supergirl in All Young Girls

BURBANK, Calif., — July 26, 2010 /PRNewswire/ — Warner Bros. Consumer Products (WBCP), on behalf of DC Comics, JCPenney and five-time Olympic Medalist and World Champion Nastia Liukin, joined forces in New York City this past Saturday to debut an all new collection of clothing for girls called Supergirl by Nastia. The event is part of a five-market tour, visiting JCPenney stores around the country. As part of the tour, Nastia is providing young girls motivational advice on achieving their goals, feeling confident and being smart, strong and empowered—being a Supergirl. Liukin also introduced the new fun, affordable lifestyle collection, which is available exclusively at JCPenney stores nationwide.
 
Liukin was on hand to host the action-packed, kick-off event at New York’s Greeley Square Park in front of JCPenney, which featured live gymnastic exhibitions, dance performances, fashion presentations and even onsite stretching and tumbling classes for young girls. Nastia also hosted a meet and greet for attendees and prizes were awarded to lucky winners throughout the event.

“The New York kick-off event was such an incredible way to introduce Supergirl by Nastia to young girls and help communicate a message of empowerment,” said Liukin. “It was so much fun to interact with all of the girls and I am thrilled to be able to continue hosting the remaining events all across the country!”

Following Saturday’s debut in New York City, the tour is set to make additional stops in Dallas, Texas; Chicago, Illinois; Los Angeles, California; and Orlando, Florida. Joining in all markets will be kids from JCPenney’s Afterschool Fund and other local community groups who will enjoy an empowering message from Nastia, as well as the opportunity for prizes, including a shopping spree for back-to-school clothes, courtesy of JCPenney.

The Supergirl by Nastia collection features trend-right, affordable apparel that encourages a message of empowerment, creativity, strength, intelligence and independence—the symbolic attributes and S-Shield of Supergirl, the iconic DC Comics super heroine. The collection, created for today’s 4-12-year-old girls, is now available exclusively at JCPenney, just in time for the back-to-school season.

The line retails from $20 - $38, making it affordable and exciting for girls to style themselves like a Supergirl. The collection includes active fleece, dresses and tunics, knit pants, signature Supergirl tees, dancewear, fashion leggings, shrug tops and more.

Nastia will conduct personal appearances to promote Supergirl by Nastia at the following JCPenney locations:

• July 31: Frisco, TX — Stonebriar Mall
• August 7: Schaumburg, IL — Woodfield Mall
• August 21: Glendale, CA — Glendale Galleria
• August 28: Orlando, FL — The Florida Mall

For the past four years, Warner Bros. has been supporting female athletes with the Supergirl Jam, the only large-scale, all-girls action sports competition and lifestyle/music festival. The Supergirl S-Shield is the universally recognized symbol of strength and leadership under which today’s sports girls unite. These “actionistas” embody the intelligence, independence, strength and creativity of the Supergirl brand.

Nastia will make a special appearance at this year’s Supergirl Jam set to take place on August 22 in Venice Beach, CA.

All of our girls compete in the 'Mystique Curls' leotard, and we have used this as our team competitive leotard for the past 2 years. Our kids compete in Acrobatic Gymnastics; we actually have 3 teams that have qualified and will be attending the Region 3 Championships on June 19th in New Orleans.

Our gym is not like many others, we teach to 'special needs' children. One of our competitive teams is a brother and sister combo (both with special needs), which will be one of the teams competing at Regionals. They just recently placed 1st at the Texas State Championship and they have been competing with the 'Regular Contenders' from the beginning. Our other two teams are also 2nd and 3rd place Texas State winners, with one team already qualifying for the Junior Olympic Natinal Championships.

To see the faces of these girls when they put their gk leotards on is extrodinary. You can just see a light switch turn on in them as if 'normal kid off-super star kid on'. I greatly enjoy working with these kids and watching them perform and grow as gymnast. Thanks gk for soaking confidence into every leo.

GK is a proud sponsor of the National Breast Cancer Foundation, Inc. in the fight against Breast Cancer. NBCF saves lives by increasing awareness of Breast Cancer through education, research and by providing mammograms to those in need.

“We see taking part in the fight against Breast Cancer as a responsibility,” noted Kelly McKeown, Marketing Manager at GK / Elite Sportswear. “A majority of gymnasts, cheerleaders and dancers are young girls who will either face Breast Cancer in their lifetime, or know people who will face it. By helping educate them about Breast Cancer, we hope to save more lives.” According to the American Cancer Society one in eight women will get breast cancer. With early detection there is a 95% survival rate.

GK has supported Breast Cancer awareness in Gymnastics for the past four years through its association with The University of Alabama “Power of Pink” gymnastics meets. “Power of Pink” began in 2004 by Coach Sarah Patterson at the University of Alabama, who decided to use her Gymnastics coaching position as a platform to raise awareness in the fight against Breast Cancer. Each of the 3 meets averaged over 14,000 fans to support The Cause. GK designed special commemorative leotards and clothing for the participants of these events.

Each year GK continues to add more styles to promote this worthy cause. This dazzling and inspiring collection of leotards and apparel is a perfect complement for Breast Cancer sporting Events. GK’s Breast Cancer Awareness apparel is available online at our website:
