My daughter has been going through a block for a couple months now. She won't throw her tucks or layouts consistantly. She hasn't fallen or gotten hurt. I have tried not to say anything to her about it bc I know she is trying but I get frustrated with her. I used to love watching her tumble but...
When I was a sophomore I broke my right forearm from tumbling and had to get surgery now over a year later I have my tumbling back but I refuse to throw it by myself because I'm afraid ill break my other arm, I have a competition this Sunday and I know I'm probably stressing my coach out because...
Hi everyone,
I've been working on my back handspring for a while now, and I know my back, legs, and arms are strong enough to do it. My only problem is I have a lot of mental block. Even with a spot, I don't put as much momentum and power in as I know I can. It's making the back handspring way...
Okay so I am 14 and have had my back hand spring for like 3 + years. I have a round off back handspring back tuck and was working on my standing when I hurt my arm for 5 weeks falling from a stunt. Now that I am better for a month plus I haven't been able to pull it. I go and back out. And I sit...

Hi everyone! I'm 13. I need some advice on mental blocks! So last summer I was working on fulls. I had most of my running and standing tumbling, then one day I lost it all. Everything. So this summer I got back my standing spring and tuck. But I have a mental block of all running tumbling. Even...
I made it onto my school's varsity sideline team only because of my tumbling (I'm working my double fulls right now) but since I also do all star, I'm so used to tumbling on a spring floor that I'm absolutely terrified to tumble on anything else (like the dead mats, grass, track, or basketball...
I am almost completely over my mental block, but I still can't throw it unless there is someone standing next to me. I've tried almost every trick in the book to help me get over it, but I just can't seem to force my body to throw it. Please help I'm very desperate!
One of sequences, I have a double turbo and I just can't get past one and a half! I can double from scale, but idk whats going. I like freak out and stop my rotation after 1.5.
Help?!
My 9 yo cp has been able to do her bhs for a year and a half. Recently while at practice she fell on her face while doing a standing bhs and is now scared to do it. She's fine doing her r/o multiple bhs, but the standing one is really freaking her out. Her coaches say that it's just a mental...
Hi , I've been cheering since preschool ! During one of my cheer seasons I was working on standing fulls, and round off spring fulls! Last competitive season I got a "mental block" . Now I'm so scared to do all of my skills. The only thing I will do by my self is front tumbling and a back...

I have been training my bhs for about a year (since Nov 2011). In August '12, my coach said to start doing my bhs by myself on floor a week before 1st comp. But at this comp, I freaked out and landed on my head.
Jump to November, AASCF Nationals 2012 Routine Warmup. I can suddenly do my bhs...

Ok, my CP was dropped out of the same stunt 3 times in the last 2 weeks on to her head. Needless to say she has become fearful of this stunt. She is 9 and on a Junior 3 team. The stunt is a low to high lib full down. She literally hit the ground with the back of her head. Her bases are catching...
