How To Do An Aerial (No Handed Cartwheel)

In this video, I'll teach you the steps you need to practice to get your aerial (no handed cartwheel). Please let me know in the comments if you get your aerial. Best of luck to you!!

Step 1. Practice and perfect your running cartwheel and do it with a lot of power.

Step 2. Perfect your one-handed cartwheel and do it with a lot of power. If you keep putting your hand down, then try holding something to prevent that.

Step 3. Keep practicing your powerful one-handed cartwheel, while trying to remove a little more of the pressure from the hand you put down each time.

Step 4. Go for it!

Keep practicing and don't give up! For me, the aerial was the most elusive trick of all! It took me 10 months from the time I had a solid one-handed cartwheel to get my aerial. However, other tricks such as my front aerial, no-handed front handspring and round off back handspring came so much faster and easier!

Good luck!!
