you should really work on the flexibility in your shoulders. Also, strengthen your wrist so that you dont colapse in the handstand. And also, make sure you have a spot from a coach.

Actually, you DON'T have to have a coach to surport you. I recentley learnt a back handspring (Well about 1 month ago) and I only had my friend surporting me, and I weigh more than her! She learnt her back handspring on Friday, but now she can't do it - so I suggest once you get it don't stop!!!

Firstly starting off with two people and moving onto one once confident really helps. After you've moved onto one person gradually asked them to hold you a little bit lighter. Finally get two people to be behind you, ready to catch you if you fall. You then need to try on your own, in till you get your back handspring! That's what I did anyway.
