I've always had a problem on beam, an this year, I got an actual good series(last year I did handstand to shoulder roll D: ) and now I do back walkover back handspring. I'm second year 7 so my coach expects more from me, but I have a hard time connecting my series. It has only counted in 1 meet...

Maybe just a bad day and then she was discouraged and now it's getting worse. Make her feel good about making corrections.
