Unfortunately, almost any beginner can do something that “looks” like a round-off.
Round-off is an easy tumbling skill to do badly.
Soon after — that same beginner will want to connect a back handspring or somersault. This is where coaches get in trouble.
The real problem is not the round-off, but the subsequent skill. Beginners cannot easily get into the correct position to connect.
Rik Feeney knows this problem well. He’s distributing a free .PDF document focused on teaching the round-off. To download it to your computer click here.
The illustrations are excellent.
If you like the free excerpt sample, buy a copy of Rik Feeney’s Back Handsprings – The Secret Techniques. And follow his carefully laid out program.
