This thread is my happy place :-)is her name jocelyn by chance....
She's 4 years old and has tumbling 3x a week, including a private, and you don't call that pushing?
Sadly there are many like it.
Can I just direct deposit my pay checks to the gym?
No I don't call it pushing. She's there 2 days a week for tumbling, 2.5 hours a week total. If she tells her mom she doesn't want to do it than her mom doesn't make her do it and the leave. She enjoys being there.

Exactly, i wish my parents had pushed me just that little bit when i was younger.

She's only been doing it for about 2 weeks now. She hasn't quite perfected it, but she can do it. Coaches at our gym won't let you move to a new skill until you've mastered what you know. Perfection before progression.The thing with this is that cheer is not like say, gymnastics where you will peak around 15 and thus, need to be tumbling heavy at 5. The majority of elite level 5 kids were not throwing tucks at 4. There is really no need to move so fast. You have your whole career to be Level 5. Who wants to peak at say, 7? Or worse, get to be 10 and decide you just don't want to do it anymore because you're burned out?
Sidenote: if a kid is 4 and doing tucks, I'd really like to see their technique because I am willing to bet that her coach is probably rushing skills.
