Hi!
For a front walkover, I keep putting my phone down in the middle/towards the end of when I am standing up. How do you keep your foot from touching the ground when you are coming up? I can do a front limber also.
For a back walkover, I can do a backbend kickover on the floor. However, how do you go back into the backbend one one foot? It seems so scary and I also can't kick immediately out of it. I can go into a backbend, pause, and kick over, but I cannot go into a backbend from standing with one foot then kick over immediately as soon as my hands touch the floor. I am really tall, so it is hard for my teacher to spot me sometimes on things like back walkovers so if there are any exercises I can practice on my own before getting a spot, it would help. I can do back walkovers with a spot, but I feel like they are really scary. I feel like my arms will give out sometimes and I will fall on my head, and going back on one foot is super hard. I try to start with my foot on the ground and then have it go up when I go backwards, but I always bail out because it's hard to balance and is just too scary.
Additionally, I can do the splits on my right side (I am a righty!) and I have my middle splits. However, for left splits, I am super close but I can never get them flat and it has been like this for maybe six months. How do I get the left split flat?
I work on my back/shoulder flexibility and splits a lot because I know that being able to do the tricks requires lots of back/shoulder/split flexibility.
Thank you!
