Backbend rollover tutorial! Hey there, I am glad you have shown interest in our backbend rollover tutorial. Please note that in order to master this skill you must first have a standing back bend and also be able to easily get into a forearm backbend with arms "railroaded" with fist facing feet. I will list the steps show in our video below for your reference. Feel free to comment with questions and as always don't forget to subscribe:) 1. Stretch back bend until your back is warm Try alternating between hands on the ground and forearms on the ground. As well as walking hands in and out. 2. Now that you are warm, try going into backbend again but this time skipping your hands and landing directly on forearms. Make sure you do this step with control and do not rush. 3. Now lets work on the chest roll. First kick into handstand then with control lower your body to the ground leading with your chest. Make sure you roll one body segment at a time for a smooth landing. Chest first, then ribs, stomach, hips, thighs, and rest of the leg. 4. Try this chest roll again but this time kick into a forearm stand then roll dance in the same sequence. These steps are very important in insuring you master this skill safely. 5. Now that you have completed the above exercises, lets try piecing them together. Start in a standing position and lower into a backbend on your forearms. Next push the ground away with your feet coming into a forearm stand. Once your legs are overhead you may release your arms and chest roll to the ground. 6. Once you have mastered step 5, try taking out the transitions for a smooth and seamless skill! Always remember, safety first:)
