I know this is simple but I'm running out of ideas.
I have a gymnast in one of the recreational classes I coach who just cannot learn to do a forward roll. She is 6 years old and has been doing gymnastics since Sept. She does not seem to understand the concept of being tucked and rarely keeps her head in even though I repeatedly remind her to keep her chin in the "chin pocket" on her chest. Most of the time she basically does a headstand and falls on her back.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
