I used to be a gymnast guys so maybe i can help?:))

1: learn your backbend.
Your backbend is the whole foundation to the front walkover. You need it when landing.
2. Try getting on your knees and taking ur hands (putting them up) then bending back
3. Try practicing on your wall.
Go over to your wall and put ur back against it. Slowly walk foward keeping ur hands on the door and slow ly lead ur hands down the door to learn to trust urself more

This was kinda confusing so... Should i do a tutorial on ma channel?

I was going to comment about how coach or trainer should never disrespect their own gymnast by pulling their hair especially since that child still looks like a minor but I’m happy everyone noticed.

[ryleanoack]

[Sunnylululpss]

[jieurdk]

[wahooooh]

Lift your back foot up immediately!****

Thanks for the video!!

[jemimaallsopp]

This was so helpful and fun to do in lock down

[jeylamorgan]

To address these comments about it’s rude pulling hair. It wasn’t a mean or rude pull she was doing that to tilt up her head it was not disrespectful otherwise she would’ve said something. As you can see the pull doesn’t effect you or hurt in any type of way so stop being dramatic

[kaia]

The girl at the end really showing you up.

[spicysiddie]

ok yall talking bout the hair pull but after the front walkover did you see how angry she looked. 0:48

[neerajaksrinivasan]

Hey Um I need help if anyone can, so I have my right splits and I start my handstand with the right leg! I don't understand how I'm supposed to switch.

[Healthnut]

Why would they cut off half the legs in the video?🙄 also I hope that’s your daughter! Wow if you pulled my daughters hair like that we would have major issues

[bigbori]

I’m struggling with getting the spilt in the air, can someone help me ?

[omglauren]

jeez, this trainer literally pulled the girls hair

[ana-dbkr]

Why are y’all stressing about the hair? She didn’t seem like it hurt and that’s what gymnastics is, it was just a tutorial where the gym coach was teaching and demonstrating

[katiemckenna]

Everybody's talking about how she pulled her hair but when she pulled
Her hair i don't think she felt so it wasn't that bad

[miasofia]

I can do a front walkover but I only can't do the last part of standing up

[alitodd]

She was just trying to show you and tell u guys to keep your heads up so stop saying crap about tis tutorial!

[chunobiyop]

This is why I left gymnastics to do home gymnastics
