Our Advanced Tumbling clinic is sadly coming to an end tonight 😢

The experience has been amazing though, even with only 1 sign up! Our one sign up has gotten a great opportunity for some 1-on-1 training and has progressed greatly since our first day on Tuesday.

She started out with very solid basics and form, and had been working on her back handspring for quite some time. Over the course of Day 1 I noticed she was lacking having the confidence in herself to fully execute her back handspring and was worried about landing on her head.

So on Day 2 we took a step back and ran some training drills. We worked on her back bend, as she was looking over her shoulder to land. We soon progressed into doing a back bend, without looking over our shoulder, and from an 8 inch mat block! This was amazing progress and a great confidence builder in understanding that if we have good power, follow our hands, and keep our elbows locked, that our hands will meet the floor before our head ever does! We learned that gravity can be our friend, rather than our enemy.

We then took some time to work on her front walkover. At first she was having trouble picking her chest up to be able to stand up coming out of the front walkover. We did some drills that focused on leading with our hips and the timing of our feet landing while taking our hands off the floor to stand up. There’s still a little work to do on this, but by the end of Day 2 she had executed her front walkover a couple times, all by herself! Along with doing a few running passes of a front walkover, cartwheel, and then round off. Creating the perfect build up to add her back handspring when she’s ready!

Yesterday was a very successful day in terms of building confidence and executing skills. This combination of successes will help with her frustration of not yet having her back handspring, especially after so long and working with a few other coaches over the past year.

I have quite enjoyed watching this young athlete open up over the course of a few days and become excited again with tumbling! I’m looking forward to what we can accomplish tonight! Fingers crossed that maybe she’ll get her back handspring, but if she doesn’t I’m sure I will be leaving her with the tools and confidence she needs to keep at it!

From the first photo to the second - this might not look like much progress, but it is! And it’s something that should be recognized!

The path to success is rarely a straight line, and progress doesn’t always *look* noticeable. Despite that, each small step IS progress and deserves to be celebrated. A win is a win, no matter how big or small.

Going from a constant “dead bug” collapsing during a front walkover and letting your hips drop, to starting to hold your hips up and a stronger arch, is a HUGE turning point. This turning point doesn’t happen on accident. It happens through technical training drills that are focused on hip strength and active body control.

These types of drills are so important!

When learning a new skill, or refining a previously acquired skill, training your body to work WITH you and NOT against you is key. When you focus on building the foundational strength and body awareness behind your movements, the progress naturally flows. (This also helps build confidence!)

Don’t rush the process, trust the process!

Success isn’t built on shortcut moments, it’s built on the consistent and dedicated work you put in over time. Small, consistent adjustments build massive breakthroughs over time. Keep showing up, putting the time in behind the scenes, and give yourself credit for the hidden wins along the way.

Is your tumbler dropping into a “dead bug” mid-walkover? 🚨

When a tumbler goes over the tumbling barrel and pulls their arms and legs inward (looking like a flipped over bug) it usually means they are losing tension and relying on the barrel to carry them rather than actively controlling their core and shoulder bridge.

Why it happens:
• Lack of active shoulder extension: The arms bend and drop because shoulders aren’t fully open and pushing away from the mat.
• Disengaged core & glutes: Relaxing the midbody causes the legs to buckle and pull into the chest instead of maintaining a clean split.
• Fear of the blind landing: Pulling into a tuck is a natural defensive reflex when a tumbler loses sight of the floor.

How to fix it:
1. Bridge Kick-Overs off a Block: Elevated feet force active shoulder push and flexibility without relying on momentum.
2. Hollow-to-Arch Holds: Build the core and back endurance needed to maintain tension throughout the entire rotation.
3. Stick-it Barrel Drills: Slow down the movement on the barrel. Pause at the top of the arch with straight arms and active shoulders before kicking over to build body awareness.

Breaking down a skill into smaller sections of technique and form is an ideal way to improve. This kind of instruction, along with drills that support the progress of techniques and form strength, is how you build safe and confident skills in your tumbler.

Coach mom moment from last night’s Intro to Tumbling class! 💙

My son was relying a little too much on the tumbling barrel here and letting his hips drop. Which leaves you awkwardly trying to "sit up" out of your front walkover instead of flowing through it.

We worked on understanding how weight shifts during a walkover and leading with the hips instead. Keeping those hips driven forward creates the momentum you need to stand up effortlessly and link the walkover straight into your next trick! ✨

High hips = smooth transitions and extra power 🤸‍♀️
