well when u kick over look at ur hands and push of the ground and my friend told me to rock back and forth from ur hands then ur feet amd she got the hang of itWww@QuestionHome@Com

Find a gymnastics studio and look for the padded barrel!. You can do walkovers over it & won't hurt yourself if you fall!. I think it helps to not hesitate from your backbend; just keep moving and think of your pelvis (hips) doing all the work/movement!. A gymnastics teacher would probably help, too!. It's 50% body and 50% mind; you just need to do it a few times and be comfortable with it!. You can also have a friend spot you - they support your back/hips as you kick your leg over!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Like she said, rock back and forth on your hands!. also you could put your feet by the wall while in the back bend and climb your feet up the wall and kick over!. The more flexible your back is the easier it will get, so stretch your back for at least 10 min!. every day in different kinds of stretches!. Hope it helped!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

when people do their bridge!.!.sometimes their bridge is too long!. Push your shoulders so they are on top of your hands (when your in a bridge)!. It makes it way easier to kick over!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
