First of all try walking down and back up again on a wall, it will help you feel what it is like. After doing that a couple of times get on to a soft surface and practise limbo. The lower you get down in your limbo the easier it will be to do a backbend. After you can go as low as you can go, get into you limbo position and as soon as you can get low enough put your arms over your head and just go down. You probably might not do it the first time but keep on trying :)

Backbend:Before Trying this make sure you can do a backbend you can try one by laying on your back with your legs bent and a little spread apart and your hands by your ears push your legs, arms, and hips up to be in a backbend position. You can try one by standing try by arching your back into a backbend on a raised surface like a bed or a couch or some mats or pillows. try making the mats or pillows lower. Then you have a backbend. you can also do a backbend by using a wall. Walk your hands down the wall to lower yourself into a backbend.

What is a backbend?

Backbends are normally just a code name for "The Bridge" When doing a backbend, you either lie down and bring up your stomach to where it looks like a bridge, Gymnists are able to do it standing, I'm no gymnist, but I can stand and bend my body backwards and then catch myself before I hit the ground. Hope this helps, I'm 16 and is still getting used to these.

What are the progressions for teaching a back flip in gymnastics?

The first thing to be able to do is a simple backwards roll starting from the ground. Then you start from standing, still only sitting down to do a backwards roll. From there, you'll want a cheese mat. You stand at the thick part of it, sit down on it, and roll backwards. Next would be a backbend. Start from pushing yourself up from the ground. Once you have that done, practice bending back into a backbend from a standing position. Once you've go that down, start kicking over. From there, work on going into the backbend from standing and kicking over as you go over. From there, you stand on the top of the thick part and jump up, twisting your body backwards. (MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A SPOTTER.) Once you've got it on the cheese mat, you can progress to the floor and try doing it there. (MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A SPOTTER.) I know when I learned we also had the pacman mat, which we sat in, pushed back, and then naturally rolled off of, to help us learn what it felt like, and that step is somewhere in the beginning stages.
