McKenna is on track to make the regional competitive gymnastics team, but off track in school, where she's suddenly struggling to keep up. When her teacher suggests a tutor, she's embarrassed and desperate to keep it a secret from her friends. Then a bad fall at the gym sidetracks her from her favorite sport. Will she recover in time to make the team? Can she succeed in school, too? McKenna needs to focus on her strengths to overcome her challenges—and, with the help of family and friends, find a way to believe in herself again.

Notes et avis

McKenna was brave. Also, struggled throught school cuz gymnastics. But to me she had confidence in her self to trust heeeeeeeeer that she can still land whatever she did. Even though she hurt her ankle she got a tutor and 2 best friends. She passed school and got 1 place and qas going to nationals. I think. Ok so, If u haven't watched this movie u should watch it now I didn't but u might learn something from the movie if ur very,very shy.😄😃😀😊☺😉😁

I think this movie is a great example for people because this girl named McKenna thought that she couldn't do anything but she didn't give up and I think when you put something and believe that something or a dream for example can come true then go get that thing or dream .

Teaching kids to follow there dream block the haters and believe in there selves dont listen to the people who hate u cause this taught me about something at my school cause these mean girls hate me and i try to be nice to them but they always wanna fight me everyday i tell my mom but she says if they hit u hit them back but i dont wanna fight i want them to stop so thats what the movie taught me to follow your dreams no matter WHAT - xoxo kaleigh have a great day 😘😘
