Honestly though, there’s a GOOD reason for this…

Give an athlete something they REALLY don’t want to drop. 😂

For this one, her watch + phone in hand… because if she trusts herself enough to take those hands off the floor, suddenly that aerial doesn’t feel quite so scary.

Aerials can look so simple because, technically, they’re basically a cartwheel without your hands touching the ground.

But mentally?

That’s a WHOLE different story.

You’re asking an athlete to take a skill they already understand, remove the one thing that makes them feel safe, and trust that their body is going to get all the way around.

That little hesitation can be HUGE.

Sooooooo, I LOVE finding ways to make an athlete think less about “OMG I’m going upside down without my hands” and more about “I know exactly what my body is doing.”

And honestly… this is something I’ve done with EVERY athlete I’ve coached through aerials.

Sometimes it’s something they cherish. Sometimes it’s just a random object. 😂

Because that’s how I taught myself (:

…watching that moment when an athlete goes from “I don’t think I can do it” to “WAIT… I JUST DID IT” will never get old. 🥹🤍

Confidence changes everything.

Has anyone else done this? 😂👇🏽 by @coachteetumbling

It looks good… but here’s what I’m seeing as a coach. 👀

This is one of my favorite parts of coaching, finding the little things that most people probably wouldn’t even notice!!!

Because sometimes the skill is there. They’re landing it, they’re getting the rotation, they’re technically doing the skill…

but there’s still something we most likely can clean up!

Maybe it’s the set.
Maybe it’s the shape.
Maybe it’s where the land.
Maybe it’s a tiny timing issue.

And honestly, sometimes the difference between a “good” skill and a REALLY good skill is soooooo small.

That doesn’t mean the skill isn’t good. It means we’re at the point where we get to start paying attention to the details. 🤍

This is the stuff I’m looking for when I watch an athlete tumble. Not just “Did they get it?” but “How can we make it better?” ✨

Sunday felt like a good day to share these 🤍

I’ve always loved being able to tie faith into what I do, and I think athletes need those reminders just as much as anyone.

So here are 5 Bible verses to save for the days you need a little encouragement, confidence, or just a reminder that God is with you through it all.

Save this for later & send it to an athlete who might need it today. 🤍

Happy Sunday! 🫶🏽 by @coachteetumbling

If you’re new here… Hiiiiii 🤍

Here’s a little behind-the-scenes of what getting to the gym actually looks like for me 😅

Pack the bag. Fill the water. Grab the essentials. Find the shoes. Then also probably forget something. 😂
Get to the gym & get to WORK.

I coach tumbling, cheer skills, confidence, and everything in between… and apparently a WHOLE lot of you found me because of one very unconventional aerial drill. 😂

Sooo… welcome to Coach Tee Tumbling. 🤍
