🧩 Put the steps for evaluating and improving a gymnastics sequence into the correct order. 🏆
- Perform the full sequence again and compare to before
- Practise that specific part slowly until it feels controlled
- Pick the one area that needs the most improvement
- Ask: are the shapes clear, transitions smooth, and balances held?
- Watch or perform the whole sequence once without stopping
