I agree. Lol, Also, sometimes the COACH isn't ready for them to do it alone. OG was spotted at her first 3 meets in Old L4. At the 4th meet, she had to TELL the coach not to come on the floor because the coach would accidentally touch her every time she did.To be honest, there is no typical time to get anything in gymnastics! It depends on so many things, and not all of them physical. The mental aspect is important. I’m pretty sure my daughter could have had her round-off bhs a full year before she did, but she wasn’t convinced she was ready. Once she decided she was ready and actually started working it, it was less than a month.
There is no typical. And getting there quickly doesn’t mean a kid is in a “better place”. Getting them last doesn’t mean a kid is “not successful”.L8.
I think it depends on a lot of factors, how old a kid is, what their training is like, what skills they already have, what fears they might have, there really is no "average". My daughter was 8 when she started gymnastics and she got her robhs pretty quickly, within about 2 months, maybe a little less. But if she had started at the age of 6 she probably would not have gotten it so quickly because it wouldn't have been a focus at the gym. Also there are girls who took longer to get the skill who are better tumblers than my daughter so getting it quickly, or more slowly isn't really an indication of talent or future success at the sport.
