I filled in for another coach recently and one of the gymnasts was working on front saltos but was iniating rotation by pulling her arms & head down. I talked to her about rotating her hips over her head rather than bringing her head under her hips. I talked about leg/heel lift etc. Either the gymnast thought I was talking Greek or didn't really want to hear but really wasn't getting through. It got me thinking about my prompts and drills and whether they are effective. Would love to hear your suggestions on verbal cues and drills to work on front saltos. I don't have access to pits or spotting harnesses for tramp at this gym.
