Just got home from dropping my daughter off at the gym. She arrived a little early and wanted to show her coach how close she was to getting her kip. She had actually found a little spot at the playground where there was a nice spot to practice. It has a raised spot in the back and a bar in front and she has gone 2 or 3 times (for short times) and practiced. She was really not even close before, her glide swing was not good and she was not getting her toes up to the bar. Well she watched a couple you tube videos of the kip that were in slow motion and that seemed to get the timing better in her mind and when she went to show her coach how close she was she did it! She was so surprised she almost fell off the bars! LOL! I think her coach was pretty surprised too because as of last week she was not even getting her feet up to the bar! I was so excited that I got to be there to share it with her! I never leave till practice actually starts and she (and everyone) was so excited! Just had to share with everyone! This is the first skill she has really had to work hard for and I am so excited for her!!
