A friend of mine who is a dance teacher/choreography posted a link to this article. While a lot of it is dance specific, I think it does pertain to talented kids in just about any sport. I know we try to reign in our hopes and expectations for that exceptional kid, but it's so hard to get wrapped up in their super human progress. I just thought it was a good reminder.

Beam deductions

Hi everyone! I’m hoping to get some help understanding my deductions on beam. I’ve been watching my videos back, but I’m having trouble figuring out exactly where the judges are taking the most off. If anyone is willing to take a look and give me some feedback, I’d really appreciate it. I’m especially curious about execution deductions, rhythm/connection issues, and anything in my acro or dance that might be costing me. The judge started me at a 10 for this routine, and I got a 9.1
