How to do a cartwheel!

This is one of the most basic, yet complex skill to  a beginner gymnast. I have "mastered" my cartwheel already so I am going to teach you how to do it!

Steps for Cartwheels:                    

Step 1: Start with your dominant leg in front of you with your arm by your ears.

Step 2: Go into a "t" position ( the 2nd picture) by leaning forward.

Step 3: Kick your leg up so that you can kick yourself up and over.

Step 4: Make sure you look where you are landing kick around yourself.

Step 5: Land in a "t" position again but instead have your bad leg in the front.

Step 6: Put your dominant leg down and your finished!

I hope this tutorial helped you get your cartwheel and if you don't get it just try and try again!

Bye flippers!
