LOL...sorry.MB, don't be so difficult
But seriously, it's OK to coil, and then move forward (I don't like to use "stride" because that denotes shifting the weight forward as in taking a "stride" when you walk), as long as you continue maintaining (actually increasing/tightening) the coil as you move/stride forward.
What a lot of young/developing hitters have a tendency to do, is that they do "coil and then stride forward", but begin uncoiling as soon as they start forward, and lose all or most of the coil that had started with or created earlier.
Not saying that's what your DD did w/o seeing video, but I'd suspect that was/is the case...as I saw it a lot in quite a few of the hitters that came to me from other instruction.
Less "difficult" I hope?
