A website would be really helpful. Please help mE out my coach says I cant do anything serious until I get up to level 1 and I really want to do other stuff....

Answer 1

Practice practice practice.

When you are told something in class, try very hard to understand it and do it.  Listen to tips that other gymnasts are given in the class too and look how they move and do things.  Look at yourself in the mirror so you know where your body is and how it looks as you do tricks.

Here are a few links on conditioning I found for you.  Conditioning and flexibility are vital.
