We just (today) started a group of girls in an advanced class. Some are farther ahead than others, of course, depending on what teacher they had. The most any kid has is a pullover, bridge kick over, decent handstand, but most do not have all 3. They are all between 5 and 7, just out of Rec, now coming an hour and a half a week. I'd like to increase that to 3 hours mid-April and to 6 in the summer but not sure that will happen. For now we are focusing on strength and flexibility and shaping, along with following directions and taking corrections. It's been a number of years since I coached this level. After our first class today I'm thinking it is probably best to just train for a year and a half and shoot for level 3 in the fall of 2016, but at the same time that seems so far away. What is a realistic time frame to expect level 3 skills to start to come (and be competition ready), assuming we're not even working most of those skills yet. Thanks!
