UCLA Gymnastics: The New Era - Episode 3

[@gabbya7394]

Bruins need a Netflix special just like the Navarro Cheerleaders!!!!

[@savannahpeirce2832]

But better

[@Mxr24]

This comment deserves way more attention!!

[@seanmuir7847]

OMG!! Yes that would be amazing!

[@annalovesariana2029]

I prefer the KZbin series because it's free and more important for more countries available as a Netflix series - sorry guys!

[@naomicampbell368]

[@kaiyaschmidt704]

I think Norah should have a series called “puzzle talk”

[@florebloes3314]

yess pleasee!!

[@marissahanson2761]

Deanna tweeted about Norah and the puzzle and she said "The truth about [Norah] & the puzzle is that I just wanted something for her to do during her interview. If you watch the uncut interview footage, this girl is just picking up random & clearly incorrect pieces and haphazardly placing them wherever" I honestly want her to post some of the raw footage.

[@heartbreakistemporaryswagi5033]

@@marissahanson2761 yes if Deanna uploaded that to her youtube channel that would be so funny

[@carolineblueskies]

It's crazy to hear that Norah was thinking about quitting. She seems like such a pillar of this team, even as an underclassman, and always seemed to be having fun and enjoying herself. Just goes to show you don't know what people are going through. Glad she and Chris could connect and she could find that fire again.

[@barrybrown6797]

I think she should quit " if she is being treated badly

[@jag136]

Where did you get that. I only heard and saw a women asking questions about her career and future gymnastics.

[@kerrigansimpliciano3990]

How many likes can we get for Deanna Hong for making this fantastic series!

[@pamelasoto5035]

Deanna blessed our lives on a whole new level with this series!! Absolutely in love with it!!!!💛💙

[@alexasiobhan940]

I love how Norah,before she got on beam, said “I got this!”💛💙

[@sunny9707]

I wonder if that was somehow related to Laurie being there? Love it though!

[@jenniferburpee9900]

I feel like I need someone like Madie Kocian in my life to give me pep talks

[@jag136]

Find someone who will challenge you to be your best self.

[@jag136]

Love these series and the wonderful student-athletes showing us their personalities and pursuit of athlete competitiveness. Love love Norah yeah girl stay strong your path is wonderful.

[@missfernweh]

I absolutely agree, thank you Deanna for the amazing captures also of private day to day life of the bruins!

[@alejandraesquer155]

I think UCLA having "growing pains" on beam is natural because in the past 3-4 years they had an insane depth of talented beamers! Some have since graduated leaving a team that used to rely on their scores in need of a deep push of confidence. I remember when they won their national title in 2018 their 3 anchors were Kyla, Katelyn, and Peng. I mean not even entire countries competing at the Olympic level have such back to back talent in a rotation! But mindset > challenges! Kyla's first year she struggled with her floor routine but she pushed through...to get a perfect 10 last year to finish off her college slam! This is the perfect time to start building leaders because the senior class is graduating, I see mini-leaders in the making with Norah, Kaly, Marz, and Nia all stepping up to fill in when needed. Go Bruins! Lets GO!

[@nmjay02]

Alejandra Esquer You summed it up perfectly!

[@lnisme0295]

100% agree I think it might also be that Miss Val used to coach beam and its a psychological change as its the first season without her

[@easytoslip]

@@lnisme0295 I agree, beam is majorly about mental strength and focus; doesn't surprise me that they were strong with her and falling a bit without her. Kinda wish they had another strong female coach even though I like Waller I think.

[@lnisme0295]

@@easytoslip I actually really like Waller but I don't think he's coaching beam he usually does bars. Also they changed a lot of their coaching staff like Jordyn and that might also be a thing?

[@jackelinevelasco6824]

I seriously LOVE this team so much. The team, their attitude, the coaches, Deanna, all of it. There is an infinite amount of joy in my heart everytime I see one of these videos.

[@kenr.9177]

I did not know that Norah and Laurie Hernandez were friends...but it makes SO much sense. 4:42

[@katemarieeee]

They were in elite together 😊

[@savannahpeirce2832]

@D Leo omg that's such a cute picture❤❤❤

[@oliviabornmann9407]

I really wanna go to UCLA when I’m older. They seem very cheerful and supportive to each other 🥺

[@sowhat6242]

Deanna is a legend and I love seeing how much of a leader Kocian has become! She’s broken out of her shell so much since elite.

[@genmcclain]

Okay, but like Kocian has come so far. What an amazing leader

[@KM-fm5tj]

That Peng Poster behind Dom 😂

[@eveliinaalanen6120]

”Peng why does this happen, was this you?” I WHEEZED

[@amalieramirezslot7861]

the fact that he just has a full on cutout of Peng-Peng Lee in the first place is just absolutely fantastic

[@saveoursoul.s.]

I miss this Era

[@Sentilong_Jamir]

Agreed 😊

[@saveoursoul.s.]

​@Sentilong_Jamir 😢

[@amykflower]

Ahhhhh I teared up all over again watching Gracie get a 10!

[@dianelawrence2910]

There are some tough teams coming up in their schedule. Dig it in Bruins Wont be able to afford those beam mistakes. Go UCLA!!

[@harper4083]

diane lawrence yep! Number 3 Utah vs Number 3 UCLA, both teams have had some struggles so we’ll see who can put it all together

[@allysonmorris6645]

I love this docuseries, and I think this is a wonderful platform to see the struggles and triumphs of this team... Its humbling and heartwarming.... So thank you!!! Go Bru!

[@jessicafabrega829]

This whole series gives me life I know I’ve said in the past but I feel like a member of the Team family but this is just on another level I feel like they’re all my sisters and I want nothing but the best for every single one of them and hard-working coaching staff and the athletic trainers to take care of them💙

[@mollie7255]

Gracie's face after she finished her routine made me cry

[@lilyjayne1353]

the way this team just exists. the energy stays the same throughout graduating classes, and they all love going to practice and keeping a good reputation for this team. this team is their priority and they all LOVE eachother. if i did gymnastics and went to college for it, this is the team i would want to be on.

[@adrigirl828]

These episodes are the best, thank you for the amazing filming and editing :)

[@Jade-kd9ow]

Omg Katelyn Ohashi came back to the softball game!

[@savannahpeirce2832]

Ikr she was in last episode too. I guess she cant s as y goodbye lol

[@kenr.9177]

Every successful team needs the crazy one...2:30, 20:40 ...and a supportive, empathetic 'leader in training'. 24:31, 27:08

[@ariahsmith24]

Norah is like ETHERNAL, she’s gorgeous

[@daniellefong2221]

OMG I JUST REALISED THAT GRACIE USED BAD GUY IN HER FLOOR ROUTINE THIS IS THE BEST THING EVER I STAN BOTH BILLIE AND UCLA GYMNASTICS yass gracie

[@emma-lanz]

Can we just recognize Peng’s FABULOUS picture.

[@clumsycookie10]

DEANNA! THIS SERIES IS BEAUTIFUL! THANK YOU!

[@gymfloormixes6606]

“That’s my major... Molecular, Cellular, and Developmental Biology, basically like human cell bio...” -Kyla 2020. Can she repeat life and be my future daughter

[@blake_ilan]

The hand on Kaly’s shoulder and her blowing out the candle 😭😭😭

[@marissahanson2761]

wish chris would have stayed like this

[@lovepixieforever]

The softball game was a nice surprise, I always thought my love for gymnastics and softball was a weird combination haha

[@xyxyxxyxy685]

Kocian's words… leader!!!

[@jag136]

I watched this again and so proud of Emma. Like Sam said an exceptional athlete who will grow and lead this team in the coming years.

[@rebeccag.s3682]

I'm loving all the new Sylvia P leotards!!! Also love how good this series is!!!

[@kaykay6268]

Can we get an episode about Nia Dennis please !!!

[@9N6-s2i]

King K she‘s on bruin banter this week!

[@marrisashianne]

kaly and norah are the cutest humans ever🥺

[@KM-fm5tj]

Yesssss!!!! ! 28 (!) Minutes of awesomeness! Thanks deaaaanna !

[@lizr.9038]

Laurie Hernandez 😍😍😍

[@hazelnutspred3348]

She wouldve been perfect at ucla 😭

[@jag136]

Can you image Hernandez and Biles on this team......but I still love this team and the Frosh.

[@lizr.9038]

Sister Catrina right?! Her energy, humor, personality would’ve been a perfect fit

[@savannahpeirce2832]

@@jag136 not biles, she is too competitive for college gymnastics

[@anikokoren3417]

Emma is so amazing and mature for a freshman. And beautiful and well spoken too

[@ly9386]

I loved this episode celebrating Pride and Gracie congrats

[@KSMaxiefan01]

It makes me sad seeing how Norah wanted to quit and how she lost her passion for the sport especially since I’ve been following her since she was a junior elite. And Maddie Kocian how far has she come from an elite bar specialist to the leader of the team who would have thought.

[@chloeelizabeth07]

i would love someone to recreate peng peng’s bar routine

[@Tessiefaye]

I love Kyla's macbook case top. I need to know where to get that blue and gold floral case.

[@raquellopez-lozano2553]

Slick Case

[@Tessiefaye]

@Kylie Larson Thanks Kylie, it's by Slick Case on Amazon?

[@Tessiefaye]

@ThroughTheSkies Thanks, you're the best.

[@teagan0102]

I love these more than anything. please do not stop these videos

[@saudbadran1873]

I love the Peng in the background😂

she comes back to haunt, i dont think shes truly ever going to leave the team

felicia is my spirit animal

[@anapatriciaortiz1448]

So happy to get to know better all these beautiful woman

[@catreinert818]

I love watching these vlogs. I always wonder how they keep up with school and workout in the gym.

[@mayakk11]

these video and editing skills are firee

[@keelieninja3300]

Make ucla gymnastics into a Netflix show

[@katemarieeee]

I love this team. All the girls seem down to earth. 🥰

[@taylorlee4672]

Wow. I didn't know Norah was 1/4 Vietnamese. That's so cool...

[@barrybrown6797]

No wonder shes crazy !!!

[@gogreen1010]

"just me and my noodles, couldn't be happier, to be honest" what a mood.

[@emilykaemerer7391]

What are they going to do without kyla and Maddie next year?!❤️💙❤️💙❤️💙❤️😘😘😘😘😘😘😘💙❤️💙😘❤️💙😘😘😘😘😘😘 and Gracie and Nia and savi and fish? And all other seniors. Love you all and you are all a very important and impactful part of the team.

[@jag136]

They have fantastic freshmen coming in and at least 2 Canadian Olympic athletes. We love this senior class, but it’s UCLA, we reload.

[@emilykaemerer7391]

I agree

[@sydneyrobertson7975]

Nia isn't a senior she's a junior

[@emilykaemerer7391]

Oh sorry, my mistake

[@LL-wu8ge]

Emmy Kaemerer They need to recruit vault and beamers for sure.

[@Sentilong_Jamir]

Awesome

[@jaelynkrohn6143]

"Gracie Kramer is perfect" Bro we were waiting for you to finally realize that.

[@melsmb8855]

Love these videos. I’m in college too and struggling as a student already. Can’t imagine being a student athlete. Respect the grind💖

[@annayuqi1057]

Idk why but I feel like Kyla has been on the team forever 🤣🤣 I love it though ❤️❤️❤️

[@jaylaarmstrong6854]

Nora seems like the nicest person in the world!!

[@airavatara]

One word: Norgzetta.

[@ativ55]

Can you do a segment on how the lineups get chosen for which event?

[@lnisme0295]

they make lineups through the week based on how the girls do in the gym and then how they do at warmups before the meet is part of the final decision

[@JazMadeIt]

This series is great. Good luck to the Bruins for the rest of the season.

[@e.m.6900]

Great work Deanna 🥰

[@gabcakes]

I love this series so much! Go Bruins!!

[@hz4471]

I’m in love with Nora🧍‍♀️

[@francescaungaro252]

In love of this!💞

[@Bigpro-co8pi]

I like Emma’s cute little voice

[@owhite7478]

They should have a Blue and gold UCLA flag cape,like the pride flag, but have it every time they stick like they are doing now.

[@lnisme0295]

a problem with the incentive of a stick cape is that its easy to get stuck on the idea that you need to be perfect and one thing i know with this team is that they say "try to be normal, not perfect" or "do normal" because when you focus on being perfect its easier to mess up

[@alizkatasztrofakonyhaja]

Thank you, Deanna! 🥰

[@markaxel8309]

So proud of Gracie Kramer ❤️

Where and who is Lilia Waller and Paige Hogan from the GymJam Academy?

[@vaiyavitwannaprasart5459]

Prefer to see a child gym Ohashi.And full gym every shot

[@margauss]

sorry , I live in Eurpe and I don`t really understand how this works. If you are a university student in ucla and an athlete at the same time, when do you study? when do go to live class? is it online?

[@seashellez]

Class in person or online. Student athletes usually have set study hours.
