Practice hand walking to build up your arm strength. Then get someone to
spot you as you do back walkovers on gym mats. Once you can do that well,
practice on wood floors like dance floors. As you gain confidence, just
have your spotter stand by – so they can help if needed. Once you do back
walkovers a few times without help – you will get more confident. But start
with help & gym mats till you are ready to try them on a dance floor.
if you were to be in gymnastics, would they only teach you gym or would you
do a lot of strength training with them too. i used to do gymnastics when i
was younger but i dont really remember.
I have been invited to join tumbling but i dont want to join until i can do
a back handspring becuz i would be bad compared to everyone else but i cant
do it. Im scared to jump back into it, even with a spotter
omg i think i competed against your club yesterday! did ur club do the
Vaughan meet?
yes
I love that gym!! I wish I could go to a gym like that…
i do hand springs in lines but when my friends spot me they use both hands
is that right?
@bloomedblossom Usually you put one hand on the lower back & the other one
can help push the legs over (if necessary)
we have tutorials on back bend recovery & back bend kickover – you can try
the wall trick if you don’t have a spotter
Is that katrina in the background lol
Great video! 😀
that’s where i go for gymnactis
@jadenbuu1 You cant thumbs up on their videos
@nf094e depends on the program you sign up for -but they all do some
stretching & some conditioning
Are Back handsprings easier by using a round off first, or standing?
awesome!! luv you girls!!! where was this??
we think roundoff – you have more momentum
