Hi! So I don't know what is going on with me but I am struggling a lot with my full turn on beam and I kind of beam struggling with my half turn too which is making me extremely frustrated!! I don't know why but I always fnish with half my foot on the beam so I completely loose balance and fall. Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong or what I can do to turn in a straight line so that I won't fall off. Thank you!
 
Hm...based on what your saying, Im going to guess that your stepping out of your turn. A lot of gymnasts do this, your nott alone. What my coach tells us about this is one of the two: 1. Stay up on your toe longer. 2. When you go upon your toe, pretend your a puppet and a string is pulling you into perfect posture.
In short, try to stay up on your tow longer. See the beam in front of you before you step forward.
