Gymnastics began over 2,000 years ago, but only became popular as a competitive sport in the past 100 years. The United States was introduced to gymnastics in the 1930s.
some dudes were doing backflips and the lead dude was like"man this is awesome" and the other dude was like, " yeah man it is awesome what should we call it," and the lead dude was like," i don't know," then the lead dude sneezed and it sounded like he said gymnastics so they decided to call it that.
Gymnastics began in ancient Greece. The ancient Greeks considered physical fitness to be a very important part of their life and they built gymnasia and courtyards in every city of ancient Greece for the purpose of jumping, running and Wrestling. Meanwhile, the Roman Empire began to ascend and Greek gymnastics began to give way to military training. The wooden horse which is used in modern-day gymnastics was introduced by the ancient Romans. In the year 393 A.D., the Olympic Games were abolished by Emperor Theodosius and gymnastics was, therefore, abolished. Gymnastics was revived in the period between the latter half of the eighteenth century and the first half of the nineteenth century. The credit for the revival of gymnastics goes to two physical instructors, namely Johann Friedrich GutsMuth, who was born in the year 1759 and died at the age of 80 in the year 1839, and Friedrich Ludwig Jahn, who was born in the year 1778 and died at the age of 74 in the year 1852.

I think that if you want to go back you should!! You would probably start in level four and by the time high school is out you could be a level seven which is optional gymnastics :)
