Read EvaluationLisa Whitfield | Prep Gymnastics Scout
Tahirah is power an grace rolled into one! She consistently scores above 9.5 on beam, and placed 6th at Nationals with a 9.575. She was also the Region 8 champion on beam with a 9.725. Tahira’s high scores come from the height on her back handspring layout stepout, full 180 degree split on her switch leap, switch half, and split jump half, a strong aerial cartwheel, and back handspring 1 1/2 twist dismount.
She is not just a standout on beam. Tahira has an amazing swing on bars, which she uses for a beautiful Jaeger and Pak salto. Her Yurchenko full has a great block which gives her height and distance. Floor brings a dynamic double tuck, back 1 1/2 to front layout and, and a Rudi.
Tahirah has a promising high school career ahead of her. She will be an exciting gymnasts to watch for the next few years as she refines her skills and competes at a high level.
