My daughter has been doing gymnastic since she is 3 years old. Now she is 13 and wants to quit.
First since she is in level 8 she has been dealing with fears up and down, sometimes she gets quick out of the gym because she does not want to work on her skills. She is really good, especially at vault but she is scared of vault or any new skills she has to learn.
She does not like her head coach. She is in level 10, now wants to quit, and she is loosing completely any interests she used to have in gymnastic. She just said she is scared, it is not fun anymore.
The coaches think because of her fears she cannot learn new skills not because she is unable to but because she has to go back to the starting point of new skills.
We had meeting with the coach, talk to her, encourage her to continue, force to go to practice. Things are getting worse!
Please HELP!
