DD is level 7 gymnast and lacks that basic fundamental ability to hold a handstand. How did this happen? She can hold for about 10 seconds but then begins to walk it. Her age is important here. She's 10, and says she understands the concept of using her core and her legs to hold it when she...

Does anybody have any ideas for Straddle Cast Hand-stand Drills to do when you are at competitons!:confused:

Anyone have anything they do with (especially to get new level 5s swinging) but compulsories in general after they finish their turn? i.e. something they can do in line or on supplementary equipment without spot. I'd like some new ones. Anything really, body positioning or exercises are good too.

Anyone have good (maybe even fun) drills to help my daughter improve her jumps (straight & split) and her sprint to vault. She isn't a great runner... her form on the handstand flatback looks great, but her run earns a lot of deductions. Thanks!
