My DD (LV6) is currently "stuck" on the tuck flyaway, a skill which she was doing last summer (2013) but then a flyaway fall during a meet in October had her in this downward spiral so bad to the point where she wouldn't even do the tap swings(!!!). After not really getting any consistent response from the coach (they claim that she has it and is "choosing" not to do it)about how she can overcome this we decided to just go to open gym some where else and I just stood there, hand spotted her on low bar and stood next to her on the high bar and bam, she had it back. But so far she hasn't been able to do any without some body there standing next to her(our next goal). DD claims she's afraid of hitting her foot and that she is "pulling in too far", which I'm not exactly sure what that means but I'm guessing she's scared so she tucks deeply to avoid her feet being hit, which in actually is what causes the feet to hit in the first place?
Can someone offer any advice on how we can help her with that?
We question ourselves if this is the end of the line for her, but she managed to learn his BHS on high beam and she can do giants on a strap bar...its just difficult to let go because in the past 3 meets she has placed first twice and third once in the all around, and is always the highest on her team, despite not having all the skills.
