My daughter is 7 yrs old, 46.5 inches tall and having ALOT of trouble with her squat-on to the high bar. Her kips look good, and once she gets to the high bar, she is fine. The problem is getting there. More often than not, she falls off and the coach just picks her up. It's very frustrating for her as a gymnast, and agonizing for me to watch as a parent. I watched the video from the last meet, and it looked like she just jumped right down, knowing that she wasn't going to make it anyway.
Is there anything she can do as far "learning to jump"? Her sister never had this problem because she's always been tall for her age!
