Hi all,
My DD has done rec gymnastics on and off for a few years. She recently moved to a new gym and was put on level 3 preteam and after about 4 months was moved to xcel silver.
The eventually decided to have her compete at gold.
Being new to all of this I thought she "had" her kip and front hip circle, but unfortunately at her first meet she received a 8.3 on bars. We suspect it is due to the bent arms. Here's a video of the first half of her routine:
Any help? She has been doing 4 hours worth of privates a month and I'm not seeing much progress. I will say the coach seems to do a circuit of all of the events at the privates, and doesn't specifically focus on one thing. Maybe that'll be key?
We have a bar at home, so she practices here, but I'm afraid she is just reinforcing incorrect form.
