Parents Need some advice

[Tingatinga]

I know very little about gymnastics but need to learn.
i have a 5 year old daughter who I started at our local acro club.she is very good and is on a development squad and is doing well in comparison to others her age as far as I can see anyway.
I took all 3of my kids for a 0-5 years open gym session at a bigger gym for fun. It’s mainly artistic there and she was really enjoying messing bars and beam. The head coach came over and said she had seen her on the bars and saw a lot of skill and took her to try some stuff. She said she should be on a competitive artistic squad . She said her strength and body shape if so well suited to artistic.
Now I feel guilty have I got her at the wrong club should I be looking at trying her at artistic instead? She was happy where she was but I don’t know what makes you more suited to which discipline
What is this about body shape etc ahhh just not sure what to do. Any opinions welcome

It is much easier for an artistic gymnast to switch to acro than an acro to switch to artistic. Put her in artistic now and she can switch later if she wants.
