Struggling teaching “stay”

My 5 month old Aussie mix is struggling to learn “stay” command. She’s incredible at sit, down, with me, come when called etc but for some reason every time we try stay with or without palm up hand signal she takes that as a cue to start jumping around like a crazy girl. Even her dog trainer is baffled at her reaction to the command. Her trainer thinks she’s just young and not making the connection. Short of having a second person physically hold her still which I really don’t want to do, I can’t get her to stay still and relax until release of command (even using tension on leash). Any tips?
