113006 - Learning to do gymnastics (almost) without spotting: back handspring
Jumping backwards requires a high degree of courage and body awareness In addition, important preparations are needed to be done before the back handspring. Without those preparations it will simply be impossible to realize a proper back handspring.
In this workshop, important preparation tasks as well as a very interesting, methodical approach are shown, which enables the children to perform the very important multiple repetitions on their own and without help after a short introductory phase. Backw handspring almost alone? Yes, that's possible...
Then we go on to show how to perform a back handspring from the round-off instead of a standing position. Assistance takes a back seat with this method - but you can't jump backwards without it.
