Jesse White Tumblers dazzle Eldorado

You know when you are viewing excellence in athletics.

The athletes make it look easy.

Jesse White, Illinois Secretary of State brought his tumbling crew to Eldorado High School Wednesday and they sure made it all look easy.

It looked easy when they did multiple back flips.

It looked easy when they flipped over ever higher barriers composed of fellow tumblers.

Anything they did looked just as easy as could be.

No one missed a mark, everyone cleared the barriers, all to good old pounding rock music.

Quite a show.

Jesse White is quite a guy. Instead of focusing just on his own career, years ago Jesse formed his tumbling group to give the kids on the streets of Chicago an alternative to gang life and certain imprisonment as adults.

Tumbling builds discipline and character. It builds muscle mass also. These guys and girls were fit. Really fit.

The Tumblers tour with Jesse all year and are looked for each year in Eldorado.
