So many of your DD's are 5/6/7 years old doing kips, cartwheel on beam, and skills my DD has never been introduced to at practice. I am not in CGM mode but just curious if her coaches are abnormally slow at increasing skills or moving girls at an average pace.
DD was in rec 50 min per week then moved to preteam 3 hr per week in October. She was just invited to USAG 3.
She has great tightness and strength but skill wise just the basics because that is all coaches have addressed to this point. She is youngest on team but all five who moved up are 6/7. She learned robhs at a mini camp last summer but otherwise no exciting skills - she does like to jump from low to high bar for fun but not as a skill (one time she face planted on the mat but popped up and went back at it... i was in cardiac arrest). The girls are just being introduced to new level 3 bars, continuing to work on holding handstand/dismount/leaps/turns on beam, learning to make powerful approach to vault, and perfecting floor skills/form.
Love her coaches and gym!!!! Just wondering if her gym is typical or if other gyms training more advanced skills at 5/6/7 are the "norm"??????
