Thanks for clarifying!Courbuettes are handstand snap downs to a rebound.
Thanks for your feedback, anything specific? I feel like she's not jumping enough but not sure how to build more leg strength.Looks pretty good as far as the general movement goes. More strength would be what I would recommend.

Jump squats, jump lunges etc Building explosive power will help her way more than doing BHS at home with mom. These are easy to follow, and very unlikely she will form bad habits. These drills will translate directly into the gym.
To add you can never be too strong through the core, everything in your center dictates how strong your extremities can be in rebounding skills. So plank variations are huge, plus any stability exercises.
As you see, there is a ton you can do at home to improve your BHS, without ever doing a BHS at home.
Thanks very much! I will pass your thoughts on to her. We have not been practicing at home, just been busy with enough hours in school and the gym. Although she has been working on hanging from the pullup bar and doing leg lifts, and just bouncing for fun on the airtrak which I think has improved her strength in core and legs. She's having better success in the gym, can do both standing and RBH on the tumbleTrak, just gotta get them to the floor!She seems to be dropping her chest a lot to try to get momentum. Instead of getting the momentum from pushing back off her toes, which is causing her to close her shoulder and jump back with bent knees. Lower body power would most likely help with the push back, and focus on smaller arm swing while keeping the chest up-back (as opposed to down-up) will as well. Plenty of beginner backhands look like this. She is doing well with it, focusing on the takeoff will help her improve and refine the skill. Watching well done videos and focusing on the athletes takeoff would be beneficial for visualization as mentioned before. I will also mention that I personally do not recommend her working backhands at home, not only is there potential risk of injury (One of my athletes actually came into the gym with a sling on her arm yesterday, after practicing her backhand at home!) but it is highly likely her technique will not improve as she is wiring but her brain through muscle memory to perform her backhands with such mistakes.
