Tip #1: Cartwheel Tips

This is my first post on gymnastic tips...I've decided to start out with basic skills. This is how to do a cartwheel the proper way.

• Suck your stomach in, keep your bum tight. This will become natural as soon as you develop better skills.
• Raise both hands above your head, and make sure your arms are lightly pressed against your ears. Not too much pressure, but make sure they are firmly in place.
• Extend your leg, and keep your toe pointed. Your toe should barely tap the floor. You DO NOT have to raise your leg as high as you can.
• Lift your toe to where your legs are at a small angle. It shouldn't be tiny, so make sure your toe is about one foot above the floor. 
• Then, bring your toe down to the floor, while bending sideways and placing one hand on the floor.
• Quickly place the other hand on the floor.
• Next, place your foot (the opposite foot you started on, or the foot you raised off the floor.) on the floor, shortly following with the next foot.
• Quickly stand up.
• Congrats! You should have completed your first cartwheel.
