Your experience is fairly common to adults trying to master fine-motoric skills as an adult, when they have done nothing of the sort as children. It's very hard, because the brain is not as "flexible" even at 20 compared to 10 years old, let alone at 40. Your problem is a very common one for people learning as adults for the first time skills like skiing, dancing, figure skating...
I've seen a lot of it in classes I took, I've experienced some of it myself. The only thing that can "cure" it, is practice practice practice. You know it yourself from your experiences in the past.
Also, if you're the analytical type of person, the coach/teacher might be wrong for you if they are more the "feeling" type of person ("let me show you", "do you feel it?") and the other way around.
You can also try filming your exercises and comparing your own video's to what you remember it looking like when your teacher demonstrated it. Oftentimes, this way you find the cause of your inability to do something (like dropping a shoulder brings the body axis out of line and will impair spinning or turning)
