My DD often asks: "What do I need to learn before I can do "X"?"
My answer is always the same.... "I have no clue... you should ask your coach"
But it made me wonder... IS there an authoritiative list of gymnastics skills within each area (fl,vt,ub,bb, etc) that shows progression and prerequisites needed to perform them properly?
Example, each in the progression requires a mastery of all the previous:
1. Salto,
2. Cartwheel
3. Roundoff
4. Back handspring
5. Arabian dbl dbl.
6. etc etc. and so on.
I'm not asking for much am I?
