Are you holding your breath or closing your eyes?

Make sure you are BREATHING. It's a weird feeling, but exhale every time your hands hit the ground. I have the same problem!

That's my daughters issue, she holds her breath when she tumbles. Breathe! You won't get dizzy.

If your dizzy you are probably throwing your head back. Here is a little secret when dizzy, when you land, stare at the floor, it will help your eyes have a solid point of contact that allows you focus much faster. I hope this helps!

I've been doing it for a while now but it's really hard for me to work on it

no, i breathe while i do it and stare at my hands.

Sometimes its just a matter of your body getting used to the head over feet motion, thats why I asked. Hmmm.

If you stare at your hands your then head is out. Try to look for the wall or whatever is behind you.

Thanks to everyone who posted:) I actually figured out why I was getting dizzy when I tumbled. Apparently I have this thing called orthostatic hypotension(big word I know) but its just my blood pressure dropping when my body changes positions too quickly:/ I did finally get my multiples though:) so thanks to all who answered

I happy you solved the problem, I was going to recommend being careful of your coffee caffeine intake, it constricts the blood flow,
