    For recreation, yes for competition, it is unlikely. Not impossible but highly unlikely. You need to figure out what your goals are for gymnastics then make a plan.

    You may want to consider all star cheerleading if all you want to do is tumble. It is a great sport for ex-gymnast.

    I say if you feel that you would still love it like you did when you were 6 then you should because, although you may not get to compete, at least you can enjoy it right?

    1. If you were in Recreation when you were 6 youd just go back 2 the same level you were in and you can work your way up to competition level. It would take a while but if you really want it it could happen

    I quit about the same age. I went back into it when i was 14. I figured it was better to try. Your body does remeber many of the technique but everything won't come totally easy.
