Front/back Walkover Tips

[Janelle Adams]

Anyone have any tips or drills to help improve front and back walkovers?

Shoulder flexibility is key!! Get your kids stretching them out, pushing shoulders back in bridges, etc. Other than that, I use stacked mats to help kids fall back in to bridge or kick over, lowering the number of mats as the get better. Tumbling down a cheese is good for getting the skill, while tumbling up a cheese is good to increase power and confidence once they have the skill.
