Difficulty: Moderately Challenging
Things You’ll Need:
- Soft or padded flooring (for practice)
- Big, open space
- Comfortable, flexible shoes or bare feet
Step1
You need a long stretch of somewhat padded terrain to do your tumbling on. First you need to figure out of you do right or left round offs. Practice a cartwheel and see which one is more comfortable. The "left" and "right" is determined by which hand you put down first, or otherwise known as the inside arm. If you do left better you'll want to start running with your left foot, if right then your right foot.
Step2
Run two strides (left - left foot, right foot; right - right foot, left foot). Then hurdle with the opposite foot, arms stretched straight toward the sky. Stretch your arms and place your hands on the floor, fingers spread strong and twist your lower body from your waist then rotate your legs over your head.
Step3
Your feet should land together, toes facing the direction you just came from. Your arms should still be stretched upward, right beside your ears. Now spring from your feet, pushing off your toes adn round your spine outward, hips forward. Reach for the ground with strong hands.
Step4
Push off of your hands and flip your legs over your head. Land upright, arms still stretched upward and by your ears. Rebound (push off your toes) and land again with your feet together, body tight.
