Yay !!!!! Congrats to her - she must be so proud of herself. So how nervous were you waiting for her to do her bars??? I would have been a wreck and probably would have been jumping up and down like an idiot when she did it

Not sure what it was today, but during the private she had last week, the new coach set it at 3 and said that was too close for her.

Not quite yet. Next weekend we have USAIGC States. My older DD is Silver level and competes on Sat, little DD competes in Bronze level on Sun. This bar routine does not include a jump to high bar. The 'hard' skill for her here is a flyaway (she is small enough to do it off the low bar), which she was doing but about 2 weeks ago, a new coach (not the same one who helped w/squat on) let her "slip" and she landed on her face with a nice mat burn down her nose! Thankfully, she is not afraid of doing it, she just needs to perfect it!
