Heres video I took last night. DD is still "stepping". I talked to PC, he says her mechanics isnt what hes worried about, its her slow arm circle.

On another note, I talked to another PC that I learned about from a user here. She supposedly teaches similar to Kempf. Im supposed to be setting up a time for a free evaluation.

Seems to be alot going on here.
1. the lean
2. glove hand swimming a lot ... causes shoulders to turn closed.... increased stress on throwing shoulder
3. late beginning? the stride foot comes down a long time before the release of the ball...

i think a whole lot of non-stepping special k's , and then a stride special k would go along ways to cleaning up the sequence of things. Just start at K, and go from there... see where that takes ya.

I think you might reconsider your pitching coach if he is worried about her "slow arm circle" and not her form. FP nailed it IMO
