May I make a suggestion that helped me? Slow everything down. suern3 is absolutely right. A lot of people think that in order to FMQ well, you have to go at it like a bat out of h-e-double hockey sticks! But you really don't. As long as you coordinate your hands and feet (the speed of your foot pedal), you'll do fine.
I love Leah Day's videos. I would also suggest going to Nancy Zieman's website and watching the two-part video series she did with Molly Hanson, another FMQ expert. (It's free to watch online.)
Good luck... keep practicing! At some point it will "click" and all will be well!
