Gymnastics

If you're cheerleading for a sport, not usually. It is more of a spirit cheer team than tumbling. If you're doing a competitive team, yes you will need tumbling. You will be placed in the back while the team does whatever tumbling until you get your needed skill.

i think it doesn't really matter but then i hope you like being in the back. and as long as you improve your tumbling skills through the year then you will be fine!

WOW there are so many! Since I have done gymnastics for 4 years I can give you quite a few, there are backward/forward walkovers, forward/backward roll, layout, flickflack, handspring, round-off, cartwheel, full-twist, dive-roll and lots and lots more.

mulalanio enie balu?

putting your leg behind your head cause i have a friend and he had a friend that did it and her leg got stuck

Gymnasts wear leotards. The men wear pants over their leotards.

yes the gators (the gators are University of Florida, Not Florida State University)

Florida State does not have a NCAA collegiate gymnastics team.

It doesn't ! Two 4 year olds begin the discipline of gymnastics. They are equal in performance. By age 8, one of the two has grown more and is four inches taller than the other. For the taller one, gymnastics becomes more difficulty due to the lenght of the body and the coordination required to perform certain moves. By age 12, the taller one is a-head taller and moves become more difficult and interest fades for the taller one but the shorter one continues to progress. By age 16, the taller one has dropped out leaving only her friends, the shorter one, as a gymnast. The perception then is that gymnastics stunts growth. It's the difference in DNA and genes the produces growth, not gymnastics.

To begin a cartwheel, stand in a lunge; your "favorite" leg in front, knee bent slightly, arms up by your ears.

Let's assume you are a right sided gymnast; if you're a lefty, simply reverse these directions. Reach forward with your right arm, kicking your left leg up as you do so. The left hand should follow very quickly, and as it touches the ground, your right leg should be off of the ground also. You should pass through a straddle handstand briefly. Your left leg will reach the ground 1st, followed by the right, which you will place in back, finishing in a lunge, just as you started, but with the opposite leg in front.

You don't need to be any specific weight. You can do gymnastics if you are fat or if you are skinny. It doesn't really matter. You will find it easier if you are smaller, lighter and can hold your own body weight.

there is not only school cheerleading but competitive cheerleading as well. there are what we competitive cheerleaders call gyms. gyms all focused on cheerleading- cheerleading gyms! these gyms you can take tumbling lessons at and also be on a team that competes at reginal and national competitions. in the dallas, tx area there are gyms such as EXCITE, SPIRIT OF TEXAS, CHAMPION CHEER, SPIRIT XTREME, PRO SPIRIT, ect. but after all of these names is the word allstars. every gym that competes has the name but at the end of the name is allstars.

EX..... Ultimate Cheerleading Allstars (most likely not a real cheerleading gym)

these teams are usually pretty expensive and it takes a lot of comitment. sometimes up to 4 or 5 times a week- the gyms that take that much comitment are usually the gyms that win! if ur daughter joins you'll pay for uniforms which can be up to $300 but usually around $200, extra clothes u can spend about $150, and shoes u'll pay about $200 because of course her feet will grow and her shoes will get worn out!

SORRY THIS WAS SO LONG BUT I TRIED TO MAKE IT SHORT= HOPE IT HELPED YOU OUT!

-actually its around $3000 dollars if you go to a winning gym. plus the cost of uniform and shoes. ($600) so if your really commited its expensive.

A popular outdoor activity for the entire family or a group of children is jumping on trampolines. They require little space and yet provide an excellent physical exercise to keep everyone in great shape.

When considering trampolines sale, safety should be an important aspect to keep in mind. The trampoline frame should be made from super strong steel that could handle several people at once. There should be a mesh enclosure that is tightly attached to the frame. Additionally, ladders are recommended to provide safe access to the trampolines. The trampolines should also be placed with plenty of overhead clearance to prevent children from hitting trees when jumping up.

To execute a Hecht jump in gymnastics, begin by approaching the apparatus with a strong run to build momentum. As you reach the takeoff point, jump off both feet while simultaneously tucking your knees to your chest, and extend your arms forward to prepare for landing. Aim to clear the apparatus, and as you descend, extend your body for a clean landing. Focus on maintaining body control and balance throughout the jump for a successful execution.

Gymnasts perform\compete at what is called a gymnastics meet, which is where gymnast in competitive gymnastics do a routine on every event (bars, beam, floor, and vault). Then once every gymnast has performed they have awards where gymnasts get placed by score in 1st through whatever place.
