i have just started volunteering at a gym and waiting to do my first coaching certificate.
I was working with beginner 5 and 6 yos practising their floor routine working towards their first little in-house competition. one of their mo0ves says 'arabesque'' but I notice they are all leaning forward to make their leg go higher, I though this was wrong and that would be a scale?
So where should the head be in relation to the balancing foot?
Also where should the arms be? In a Y or T?
I asked one co0ach and she told them to lean forward but another said it is better for a beginner to have the foot just off the ground as long as the chest and head are upright ??
So I am asking the clever people on here for advice!
