    Anon Question for parents/coaches of extremely talented athletes, from parent of an average one

    It is possible that the bulk of the 15 are Hopes and not elites. She did say that the 15 were either senior, junior elite or Hopes.

    Women Connecting full bar routines

    Should the bar routine be fully connected one month before the big meet? My dd has added upgrades to her level 10 bar routine, but hasn't fully connected the 2 halves of the routine yet with an important meet one month away. Wondering if there is enough time from your experience?

    Women Difficulty vs Artistry focus junior elite

    That makes a lot of sense to me. I guess if artstry isn't there difficulty can take over. 😊

    Women Difficulty vs Artistry focus junior elite

    Thanks. Does that include arms, and upper body form? It seems like they are in such a rush to get the difficulty as high as possible and as a result, often the rest gets neglected...

    Women Level 10 scoring poorly on beam

    She fell on her front aerial, but completed the skill first on the beam and then fell. The coach basically said she needs to work on her form ans artistry

    Women Level 10 scoring poorly on beam

    Thanks for the feedback. Really great. I think she got artistry deductions on flex feet and lack of opening on splits, plus maybe her arms are a bit sloppy. She now understands that she needs to work more on form and artistry. Hopefully she can clean it up a bit.

    Women Level 10 scoring poorly on beam

    Thanks for the feedback. I don't have a video but here is the routine: front tuck mount, front split, wolf, side split, front aerial, full turn, back handspring back tuck, dance, side aerial, dance, round off 1.5 full. Her arms get a bit flimsy sometimes, but her knees aren't bent from what I...
