Hello, I am new on this forum, I'm 21 and about to take an adult gymnastics class. I used to be a cheerleader, now I am a dancer. I really want to go back to tumbling but I have always been afraid of going backwards. During my cheerleading years I learned to do a back handspring, but I only did it a few times (I undercut very badly) and soon psyched myself so much that I developed a crippling fear and couldn't do it anymore. I really want to re-learn a back handspring and hopefully go on to do more tumbling, but even now, when I picture going backwards, I get very scared. Did anyone have this problem? Help!
