Beginner Tumbling: Kids and Youth

Basic tumbling is used across a range of sports, even those you don't expect. Tumbling combines strength, power, agility and coordination that, when performed properly, results in an exciting and dynamic sport.

Tumblers start out preparing their bodies by taking time to learn basic flexibility and strength exercises, which help prepare and protect the body during routines. Building up the muscles in the back, arms and legs gives them the strength and power to complete the moves. Flexibility in the back and shoulders is also essential to allow the body to create the shapes needed in tumbling moves. This is improved by completing basic stretching exercises regularly.

Basic Skills

One of the most basic tumbling skills is the forward roll, followed by the backward roll and cartwheel. Once a person masters these basic skills, he can move on to learning one of the most-used skills in the sport: the round-off.
