Cool tip you've learned

Know how to fall off beam properly, STRETCH LONG when doing cartwheel on beam, always land with your knees bent, and start your front tuck with your hands in the air. Now if I can just always remember to keep these tips in mind....

If you struggle to land a 1 1/2 toe turn cleanly, try starting the turn leaning slightly BACK, which tends to help you come out of the turn ready to step cleanly out of it. Would work for 1/2s and 2 1/2s as well.

Also, if you get the bad turn syndrome where they start getting all weird, be sure to practice some turns going in the other direction. It helps straighten out your brain!
