Women Re-learning a new way

[Sari]

This just makes me think of all those crappy beam BHS that I see at practice.....then when I ask DD to show me a really good one, then she does a good one........this upsets me.

I really depends on the coach.......our bars coach is a STICKLER for form and technicals......I guess beam coach is more laid back......I bet you can guess who the girls love more........

Sounds like my assistant coaches... But I don't mind being the bad guy

On another note, nothing is impossible to correct if the willingness and focus in training on both sides (gymnast and coach) are there.

I know of a girl that changed gyms and the new gym picked up twisting direction problems that meant that without fixing, she'd never get some of her connections (I think that was the story - I'm a bit vague on the details!). Over a few months she relearned these skills and now all is fine.

It took time and effort to fix, but fixed it was. Never say never.

We had something similar with my dd when she switched gyms at 6. She had to relearn walkovers leading with the other foot. It took time but it happened.
