DD can't hold still. We've worked hard to help her understand and improve her behavior, and it's gotten better, but I believe it will always be a struggle for her. Unfortunately, it drives one of her coaches crazy. I understand the coach's perspective. The coach doesn't need a distraction in class when the other girls can hold still and listen without constantly moving.
Any tips to help her stay still? Coaches, would you hold a gymnast back for this reason?
She is not defiant or snotty. She is kind, encouraging, talented, and she works outrageously hard. Her first coach 2 years ago disliked her. Then she had a great run of coaches who loved her and her positive traits, and the hyperness didn't bother them. But now she found a 2nd coach that she drives nuts.
Any advice? Tips? Is DD a bad fit for gymnastics? Is this just a coach clash?
DD adores gym.
