Gymnastics Advice

It all happened one day when I was in 2nd grade. I got to gymnastics and my class mates and teachers were stretching. Are first advent we went to was floor and my coach, couch Mary said “Meghan you are going to learn how to do a backhand spring.” I said “o.k. lets do this!” I couldn’t do it so then I gave up. I went to go get a drink then she said, “Come here Meghan here is what you are doing wrong you aren’t getting enough power and you are bending your arms and legs like crazy! And well you kind of aren’t bending your back properly.” “Fine” I said “I will try one more time!” I did it!!! I was so happy!!! Now I can do it with no problem!
