For me, the first things to look at would be....
#1: Is she reaching with her shoulders/upper half or is she getting the stride knee up and out so the hips can get underneath the shoulders?
#2: How is the stride leg landing so it can become the brake (leverage) for the FSR? Bent or straight?
#3: Core usage. This is tough at the younger ages because their core is soft since it's stretching and growing.
Things that worked for my DD.......
#1. Took video for her to look at. She could never feel herself leaning, so we had to show her. (A mirror also works, we just never ended up getting one).
#2. Her PC had us take a pool noodle and slip it over a toilet plunger so it stood vertical at her toe touch spot. If she leaned forward she'd bump into the noodle.
#3. Balance beam. This fixed a couple issues. But "usually", with lean comes imbalance. This is a great instant consequence tool. If DD wasn't balanced or was leaning, she'd have to step off after release. The goal was to be balanced and tall at release. Not leaning or bending forward.
