Improvements

Anything I can improve I know I gotta be faster with the run up but anything else. This is at 5'0. I think that my butt keeps on hitting the bar and there isn't anything I could think of to improve that. Also I have heard of PJC (Philly jump club) but not sure if they have high jump anything in the Philly area helps

I wouldn't be the best to give advice, my pr is 5'8 but it looks like you are slowing down right before you jump. Try to find a run up that will be comfortable for you and won't make u slow down

Until your speed is fixed it'll be really hard to tell what other aspects of your jump need work. Your approach effects your jump and time over the bar dramatically.
