I do have basics down though. I've perfected all my level 1 skills. I am working tucks right now, still with a spot. Hopefully I'll have a breakthrough soon!
Thank you! Let's see, I think I was around 10 or 11?Good luck! How old were you when you started working on your bhs?
Kris10boo said:It's cool what you said in the beginning.. I was impressed with my cp who had just turned 5 and didn't have one skill when she started. Then within a couple months went from a back bend kick over to back walk over and then working her BHS. she spent months working her BHS and would throw it by herself since they showed her but it always looked like a jumping back walkover. At 10 moths she finally got a correct BHS. In the last two months she has BHS, running and standing. She can do multiple BHS. She can do round off BHS step outs. So I know you said that normally takes 6 months to a year. So my daughter went from level 1 to 2 in a year. So I guess that's ok.
However, you said level 2 to level 3 in 4 months. Wow that would be a dream- I think I will fall out if my daughter got a tuck standing or running in 4 months.
Maybe I don't see it because my daughter has the best barely jumping BHS I know. So I don't see a tuck anywhere in her near future since my girl can't jump!! Haha

I bet you'll be surprised! She sounds like she's right on track with the way our girls progress too. They just get hungrier for it. After they've worked those bhs skills and series/combos for a while they start asking or pushing for the tuck.
And practicing vertical jumps (among other drills) will get her ready even sooner. Kids amaze me every day!
