Coaches 2013 Compulsory DVD

[Bumblebee462]

Hey guys I'm watching the new routines on the 2013 Compulsory DVD ... Can you guys explain to me what they mean by "The routine may be reversed in it's entirety"

It is talking about lefty gymnasts doing skills in their dominant side as opposed to forcing them to use their right leg, like the DVD.

It means that everything must be reversed. If it says right arm crown, you would put the left arm in crown. If the text says step left, you would step right.

Basically... You figure out which side is their dominant leaping and turning side and then teach the routine that way, since most of the acro skills can be reversed without reversing everything in the routine. (If you have a kid that leaps and turns righty, but round offs lefty.)
