I am looking for drills my DD can use to work on the kip cast, she has a great straight arm kip and a nice above vertical cast, but one just does not flow into the other. At gym they work routines, but do no drills on this skill, proably because everyone else has it beautifully. She has access...
Hi all, My name is Melissa and I used to be a gymnast but only competed high school from grades 7-12. I did go to state on Unevens though:)
My daughter competed level 4 last year at the age of 7:)( She started at age 5 in the beginner beginner class)
She wasn't moved up to level 5 this year...
ok so, i am in a prep-optional program,
and i need a kip inorder to move up to a higer level.
however,
i cannot do them the right way,
i always tap the floor and push away from the bar.
my coach says i have the strenght to do one but i just am not "trying hard enough"
when i am giving it all...
Hello Everyone! My daughter is having problems with her kip. She is able to complete the skill, but when she pulls down on the bar she strong arms it ono one side making her body turn and her legs cross like scissors - has anyone ever encountered this and if so any suggestions on how to fix it?
