Concur with DrRiello & Dneeld above. But would frame the cue more as "lean" NOT hinge. Bending at the waist will not alter body position to increase drive effort. She needs to move her body into an "unstable" "h" postion (think wall sprints-see drive mechanics sticky -see also blair luna slow motion on you tube). We call this the "load 'n go" position. It creates the unstable feeling of being ready to fall foward and mentally urges the body to thrust forward.
Ditto about "drive the knee" Think muay Thai knee strike!
Love the fact that she does not "drive to open" her hips but allows the body to react naturally. I believe this conserves A LOT of energy for the forward motion. It is something I still call out DD for (she started with an HE instructor-"Open the hips, clear the lane!, argghh!)
Good work!!!
