Hello! My name is Sibylle Walters from Flairs Gymnastics in Davie, Florida. You can find us on the web at www.flairsgymnastics.com. Now, we are going to demonstrate how we teach the seat drop to young children. In a seat drop you jump and you land, sitting on the trampoline and you bounce back up, it’s called seat drop. Gabby can already do it on her own, and again go, one, two, three, stand and again, one, two, one more Gabby, one, two, three, down, very good…Yes... Alright, now we are going to show you how to teach a child who do not know how to do it on her own. Holding on to her hands. Jump, one, two, three, seat drop okay there you go, and again… one, two, three, down, that’s it. Okay Gabby try again. One, two, three down.. One more time, jump, one, two, three, down. It is very important that the teacher helps the child in a seat drop that she cannot do it on her own.
