with the body sideways and keeping the back straight and one leg a head of the other placing the hand of the same side on the ground followed by the other as the back leg and then the front lift. the legs rotate straight over the hands and then come down as the hands and body come up. the whole movement should be on a straight line.
au spina: it's a variation on a normal cartwheel (au normale) where you twist your torso while in the air so that your body face the direction of travel as you land. [montoya]
This was the first acrobatic move I ever did (other than a butterfly kick). I know a lot of people get discouraged when they find that they can't seem to straighten their legs and are going over on an angle. To overcome this concentrate on touching the sky with your feet, also it helps a lot to do a small hop into the move because this gives momentum and makes the trick much smoother.
Don't discourage! My first cartwheels were very funny to see! Initially i didn't go to a straight line. Then i've developed the feeling for my body position (especially for limbs) and it became more simple. Cartwheel were my first move, 3 months ago. Now i can do a no-handed cartwheel and the au batido and I've learned them by myself. Feel your body position with your entire esssence!
Hmmm getting an au spina is easier then it sounds, when you go into your au *cartwheel* dont keep your legs straight up in the air, instead bend your legs at the knees and have them half way tucked behind you, this will torque your body into turning and land in the direction that your going, but dont try to land hard on your feet, try to land soft as you can so you can keep on flowing in your game.
okay this might sound really stupid, but i can't do a cartwheel because no one ever actually showed me how. i need to learn a roundoff for cheerleading and i figured i better learn a cartwheel first. verytime i try to do one i checken out and end up not doing it becuase i really don't know what to do. please help
Don't be scared to do a cartwheel your hands will keep you for hunting yourself.If you still can't get over, it have someone spot you untill you become confident in your abillites.
as soon as your kick leg touches the ground, try to arch your back and let your circular momentum continue. Your body will twist around and you'll end up facing forward again. Looks sweet.
I know this is so dumb, but when I get ready to do a cartwheel, I freak out. I have NO clue what to do. Its like, I lift my leg up and get ready to roll but it just doesn't work. I guess I'm just too scared. errr!! Can someone help me?
You guys are samurai poop. Girls cartwheel all day. So I guess this move is okay, if you are a girl... This site sucks. If you want a real fighting site, go to realultimatepower.net. Pansies!
Cartwheel was hard for me at first i even found b handspring easier. Then when i learnd it my legs shook all over the place. But now i do it with ease and i am very close to doind the aerial.
Only do a handstand leave your weigh to fall to your back, and before you touch the ground put your feet then when you can do this well do it faster and faster and will arrive the moment that will transform in a cartwheel. I wait that this will be usefull for you.....
Ah, good advice. I honestly can't remember learning a cartwheel, that and a kip up just kinda happened naturally to me and a few of my friends...oh, isn't "karateca" spelled "karateka"? Cuz if it is you might not wanna say you're the best when you can't spell it right. But I'm not sure.
Well cartwheels are hard but what you do is(it depends on if your right or left handed)put your right hand out straight in front of you the bottom part facing the ground and put your left hand straight back facing the sky or ceiling. then propell yourself forward pushing your right leg on the ground and pushing your right hand forward and just push your self forward. When you hit the ground just put you left leg down followed by your right. WAS THIS HELPFUL tell me by posting a letter.
Heather +all those who are scared, start off crouched down on close to the floor like a bantoo cooking rice. Raise both hands over head, place them both to one side and at the same time lift your butt and legs. They stay bent, so you use your lower back muscles. You end up also crouched down. Doesn't matter if you resemble a fat frog, the important thing is to get yourself jumping and lifting both legs of the ground using on your hands. When you can do that, do the same putting first one hand, then the other. And then, go gradually lifting your legs higher as you get stronger. You'll end up doing it from an upright position in no time. Email me and tell me if that has helped, coz i don't normally stop here. kisses, Lía -Spain
I can do a cartwheel with my legs straight but I have trouble keeping my legs apart I always go into it as if I were going to do a round off and it's sad to say that I can do a round off better than I can do a cart wheel Please help please e-mail me or something.
I try ro follow the instractions i have read here,i place my hands down-push with my legs and i get vertical like handstand,but when i go a few inches forward i always fall with my back(beacause of the weight of my body).i can't land with my feets.i think that i must work out my lower back muskles.please tell me what to do.
if you don't know what a cartwheel looks like here's a .gif image of what it should look like just try your best try stretching like doing splits and stuff before you try doing a cartwheel then what you want to do is start out with your arms straight above your head don't try to separate them then if your right handed start out with your right foot in front of you in a lunge not to big of a lunge and bend down and as you're bending down if your right handed start kicking over with your left foot and let your right foot follow it kick over as hard as you can with your legs as far apart as possible if your a lefty than just do everything with the opposite hand or foot. If these instructions help you any or if you need further instruction e-mail me back @ mkgood10322@comcast.net
My daughter needs to learn a cartwheel for cheerleading. SHE IS 8 YRS. OLD AND CANNOT do a cartwheel. She was so embarassed tonight because all the girls could do one but her. Someone, please tell me what I should do. I feel like it is totally my fault that she cannot do a cartwhhel! I want to give her some pointers, so maybe she will be able to do a cartwheel on her own at her next cheerleading practice. She was so embarassed tonight. Someone please respond to help this 8 yr. old. I know she can do this.
Practice is the thing to get all these moves. I think your daughter should try and learn the aerial cartwheel and she will be better than all the other girls trying out.
ok. i suck at doing cartwheels. my front leg won't go up. i keep trying EVERYTHING but nothing, NOTHING works! i used to be able to do one. this sucks! ugh. please help me!!!!
I find sometimes that after you have read and understand how to do a technique the best way to pull it off is not to think about and just throw yourself into it. This doesn't always work well but it can help you overcome your initial fear.
Cartwheels are very fun in fact i've come up with some fun variations. The first on is the no handed cartwheel. second the one handed cartwheel (looks cool while playing paintball). And third my favorite is the wall cartwheel where i go on my hands next to a wall the kick my feet against the wall the spin back on my feet, try combining some for great fun!
at first this stuff looks like its for girls (nothing rong with that!), but then when u look further - -- its for the tru master. This stuff looks impressive, the ones who shake thier heads in ignorance r the ones who can not do these acrobatic moves. Nehtier can i. I try so much, bu i think i should work on my stretches b4 attemptin anythin like this.
Good luck. May this site prosper. As they say in korean "PIL SUNG" - "certain victory"
yay!! i learned how to do a cartwheel!! First i would like to thank all of you for your wonderful advise and i wanted to tell everyone still learning that the best thing to do is practice! even if you kindof do a cartwheel quat, keep practicing and consentrate on straightening your legs...you'll get ther eventually! GOOD LUCK!

1. Take 1 Step to the left. 2. Run around in circles until you cannot see 100% clearly. 3. Consume 3 Beers. 4. Since you are not sober you will be able to perform the move you will have no fears of this manuever. 5. Take your opponent down with a basic throw. 6. Perform a front flip with a corkscrew and land on your opponent's torso. 7. CALL AN AMBULANCE CAUSE HES PROBABLY DEAD 8.THEN HAVE ANOTHER BEER
Take three steps right Then four left Its probably best to take another one to the back hey while you being a dumbass take one front. Pee on the wall and meditate
consume 3 40s go to top of skyscraper stand on edge of roof attempt to fly have fun with this manoover land on baby witch will help u to learn how to perform baby killer
Here's a few ways aspiring cheerleaders can improve marks on their cartwheel's:
1. Prior to executing the cartwheel, keep your head straight and contract the muscles of your lips while SWALLOWING cum from the judges hard cock's. And don't forget that smile!
2. While executing the flip, make sure and flex your legs to a 180 degree angle while upside down to reveal your pantyless and shaven love box. Rub a little oil on first to enhance the visual.
3. Finally, be sure and bring along a strap-on to improve your score with any female judges. Of course you may have do a little carpet cleaning too.
I'll accept your thanks in advance for these tips. The pleasure has been all yours!
I can perform all sorts of stunts/jump spin kicks/rolls/no-hand front flips, etctera, but I can not do the cartwheel and I believe I know why. I don't have enough shoulder flexibility. I can not hold my arms straight over my head. Take these tests: 1. Stick your arms straight out in front of you parrallel to the ground with wrists bent/fingers pointing up. Slowly raise your arms overhead paying carfull attention not to twist your elbows out. 2. Now try it again - letting your elbows turn out, but not bending your arms. I believe that if you cant pass these "flex" tests then you can't do a proper cartwheel. Am I correct or am I just in denial at my inability?
i cant do a cartwheel !!!!!!!!! i dont care im practicing i hurt my head and my foot ow thanks to evryone that gave instrutions but i still cant do one!!!!!!
once I get te hands down right, I freeze when I get half way up, I end up fallng. i need to know how to do a cartwheel to be able to try out for JV Cheerleading!!! My feet never go over right and my hands cant support me that much....
when u start to go over in a cartwheel push off as hard as u can. most ppl are too scared and they end up on the floor. if u dont kick off hard enough, u wont have enough power to go over. second, use your arms! push the ground as hard as u can. dont lock ur arms before they touch the ground though otherwise u will wind up with a lot of pain..or worse.
IM 13 I LEARNED HOW TO DO A CARTWHEEL WHEN I WAS 6 HOW THE HELL CAN YOU PEOPLE NOT DO A SIMPLE CART WHEEL...!!! the only thing i cant do is a backhand spring, and an ariel... once you learn to do a backflip you can pretty much go on from there such as a wallflip.. ect ect. but another thing is a front flip i can do a front hand spring but coming over the fear of doing it with no hands is a little hard... how can i do a backflip and stuff. i dont care bout front flip or ariel now only backflips thanks.. STUPID NOOBS!
alright i can do a front handspring, a kip up, a butterfly kick, a headspring, a front flip and various other moves but i cannot pull off a cartwheel and i need tips because if i can't do this i can't pull off an aerial so any help would be appreciated.
I know a lot of people who can not do a cartwheel .But do NOT get discouraged, try finding a gymnast or someone who can do it.I`ve know this since i was 4 and i started early. DON`T GIVE UP!!!:)

No matter what I read or how I see people do them, I just can't seem to get it right. Every year I dread the tumbling unit because I know I will emb arass myself. One year I almost broke my tailbone ! ( Don't ask how it happened because I have NO idea !) Does anyone have more tips on what I should do? I f you do PLEASE write. Next week is the part of our u nit with cartwheels.
