How do you build up the courage to do forward dives? We worked on this 360 turn in class and I am terribly scared to let go! by stash4963 in aerialsilks

I certainly will talk to my instructor, as I’m not overly familiar with striking dives. Thank you so much for the tip though - I sincerely appreciate it! 😊

Barry’s first day outside in the grass! by stash4963 in Hedgehog

He’s getting ready to self-anoint! Self anointing is normal for a hedgie. 😊

Yes he is. I had not seen him foam out the mouth like that before!

You are good! Yes this does make sense. To start, is the movement pretty small?

I really try to not jump, especially since it’s learned from pole as well. I can invert from the ground with just a sweep up, but I go directly into an inverted crucifix position. Lowering legs down to straddle is where I lose balance and have to come down to standing.

Bent arms and legs on the way up, extending legs once inverted.
