strawn - As others have said, getting her to trust her gear is a critical step. Also make sure her gear fits properly. The helmet should be snug and not move around when shaking her head side to side. The chest protector should fit like a compression shirt, not flopping like an apron. Legs should also be secure and snug. Properly fitting gear is not only safer, but also improves mobility for routine movements, as well as when it's time to hustle.
