afraid

Any suggestions on how to overcome fear! My daughter is moving up to level 6 and she is now afraid to flip! She can't do the fly-away on bars - she has never really tried to flip, even into the pit. She says she is afraid and doesn't know how. And now she can't do her round-off flip-flop...

Just wondering if any of you have been in this situation. I have a 5 y/o that is on level 3 now. She loves gymnastics, is excited to wear her new competition leo, but states she doesn't want to compete, but then later she'll say okay she'll compete later on. I don't want to push her if she is...
