^^^^Nothing to add to this conversation except to tag @tumbleyoda - this thread needs him!
The reality is mental blocks can exist for many different reasons AND the majority of them can be prevented. However there are situations that can come up that is not predictable that can lead to a mental block. Understand that everyone (parent, athlete, coach, team) is frustrated when one happens no matter what the reason is.
How to get out of them is a totally different answer. I believe I posted about this somewhere recently on these boards. ETA here is that thread: Can Learning Skills Too Fast Put You At Risk For Mental Blocks? | Fierce Board - The Voice Of Cheer
This is a copy of a handout I give to my P2P class (Progressions 2 Performance) class which is a mental block class for our athletes. There are many industry people who work with mental blocks and I have no desire to take away from them at all. However if you want to contact me privately about a situation please inbox me here and I will do what i can, or point you in the right direction.
