Terrible news.
Melanie Coleman died after being injured on a Bars dismount in training.
“We are heartbroken and stunned by Melanie’s passing,” head coach Mary Fredericks said. “She was an incredibly hard worker and a sweet-spirited young woman. …”
Melanie’s family has set up a GoFundMe.com page, as well as a page that coordinates meal donations to the family at MealTrain.com.

The general rule followed by many coaches is to do all skills with legs together to start:
LATER — and carefully — introduce straddle technique if and when needed. Canadian Olympian Maddie Copiak (170cm) never straddled. It’s possible.
related – teach long kip before glide kip as it’s less complicated for the beginner.

Stuttgart edition.
