    Coaches Swing 1/2 turn dismount (girls level 4 bars)

    I have two girls who generally have very strong bars but can't get the dismount to turn quick enough. They start the turn at the right time, but they turn so slowly that they can't properly finish the turn at the top of the swing. Thoughts/suggestions/drills?

    Women Bars: groups 3, 6 and 7 circles

    I'm hoping someone will point me in the right direction.... What are these? I'm assuming stalders, free/clear hips, giants? Anything else? (Tried looking at the FIG CoP, but they don't seem to align to me). thanks in advance.

    Women Wrist shifting on bars

    Does anyone have any drills that help explain wrist shifting for bars? These specific kids have the right idea/form to do skills like clearhip to handstand and monkey circles/monkey gaints, but their wrists are always caught at the bottom, because they forget to shift. Any drills, tips, or...

    I'm trying to track down a video of a skill and, as most I find are American, I wondered if it is one of those things that has different names either side of the pond. But I might also have the name completely wrong, so I wondered if you can help me or correct me or laugh at me if you want ;-)...

    Women Weight/height/bars connection?

    I heard something recently: that shorter, lighter girls sometimes have trouble getting good swinging momentum on bars. Do you think this is true?

    Women New level 4 bars question

    So, since there is no front hip circle in the new level 4 bars routine (the routine is basically the same as the old level 5 bars rountine except for that one skill which is now omitted), will that mean new level 4 bars scores should go up from what old level 5 bars scores were? Since there are...
