5 Year Old Learning HOW TO DO A BACKFLIP

She really wanted to learn how to do a backflip so we went to our good friends gym and had their awesome 12 year old daughter coach her on it.
For being her first time ever trying and with all the amazing distractions an open gym can have, we are very proud of her attempts! Next time we’re sure she will land it.

Other girl did a great job coaching her!

It was payton

[@Harper_Pr3ppyVlogs]

@@adriennechow596 think she means the girl in the black?

[@monicaainsworth7288]

It's payton

[@Nclght]

She is amazing at paying attention, trusting and following instructions. Even when she's so excited and doesn't appear to be paying attention, she's listening intensely. Unstoppable combination, excellent teachers and a perfect student.

[@ferretocious]

She's used to it with all that training from mom and dad from snowboarding!

[@BetteStewart]

I was learning this at 5 (private gym class). Whenever possible, my father appeared - he was quiet and didn't intervene /the instructor. It was in Detroit Turners.

[@jackthepro5262]

I pay attention to my teacher sometimes at gymnastics

[@picardythirds]

wow. Peyton is a great little coach. and strong. her spotting skills were excellent.

[@Travis_Stewart5422]

It's amazing how much more she focuses when dad's giving the instruction. She has mad respect for her pop. The other young lady did a magnificent job coaching that is for sure.

[@asherrogers2687]

The next time she's at the beach or a lake (sand and no rocks) have her try in the water and gradually move more shallow until she's finally comfy with no water. I promise it'll build confidence, especially since it doesn't hurt so bad to land in water & sand, even a little water helps. (Knee high for her height)

[@RowleyAdventures]

Great idea!!

[@YungIsyan]

being knees deep in the water however, makes it way harder to jump. But if you arent even knees deep, the water wont help you anyways

[@katekurtz1640]

That’s how I learned my backbend. I tried it with my back handspring but that didn’t work because for that the water made it really hard to jump when I got shallower but great tip!

[@asherrogers2687]

@@YungIsyan Yep, you need to be in the water in order to use it. It actually forces you to jump harder. So by the time you try it on land It's so much easier. Kinda feels like you're defying gravity:)

[@PinkPengwin]

Yes this helps a lot

[@ktps1527]

Small fry’s water bottle is a Large Fry size. 😂

[@ktps1527]

She really knows how to learn. Such a great life skill.

Lol she super sized on the water bottle 🤣🤣

Very much so!

That little girl understood directions really well! Impressive 👏👏

[@gabsie7224]

She has so much support and so much enthusiasm. She is going to be very successful with all the confidence she has in her means. Good for her. And congrats to her parents for nurturing her self-esteem.

[@sharonwilliams1981]

Amazing, she's going to be incredible when she's older. You are incredible parents, you give her so much love, support, guidance and encouragement that she will literally be a star in the future. You are dedicated parents and it's really wonderful to see xxx

[@prettyboyfloyd90]

Dad can seriously coach anything

[@RowleyAdventures]

Thank you! I try

[@barbarapettry6817]

Mom & Dad, born Coaches, they are sooooo Encouraging, they make You feel You Can Do It before You even try!!!👋🙂

[@shelbycomeaux117]

She is the one encouraging me! I’m so afraid to try new things, my anxiety always thinks of the worst possible thing. Right after I saw this video I went to go and try and learn how to do a backflip! She is amazing super brave.

[@06UH]

I have anxiety and I'm the total opposite! Gymnastics is my outlet and I often think the worst but I do it anyway and it makes me feel so good about myself! I'm now working on a double twist! So I'm pretty good but not like Olympic level, but either way I love it.

[@michaelhart5679]

I am so proud of you as parents. The opportunities for adventure you give cashy are great. I was a single dad for my little girl and tried to provide her with as many opportunities and I believe it helped her as a child and now as a young mother. You are a pleasure to watch. Good job to all.

[@noelmahalder]

Shez not a pinch nervous. What a cute strong darling she is… full of excitement & thrill… who is this super hero dad… is there anything that the dad can’t do or train… amazing guys!!

[@LeahBandB]

I stared gymnastics when I was about 4 years old. It is so easy to learn at that age. You're just so fearless! Children really are amazing.

[@bigworld4089]

What a great effort and hard work👏🥳🤸‍♀️👏🥳👏🥳👏🤸‍♀️

[@ABeckSoftball14]

Is no one gonna talk about how good of a coach/spotter that young girl Peyton is 😅. Anyways She did great

[@Kailynn.Grace2010]

She can do anything if she just keeps trying!!! She's so talented!!

[@RowleyAdventures]

Agreed 🙌🏻

[@carolrice2063]

Next year, she will be doing Back Flip's with the Snowboard.

[@huwie-]

@@carolrice2063LOL FR

[@purplefeather69]

It's awesome that she has so much support and the resources to help her achieve her goals. I remember when I was a kid and my friend would be outside practicing on a mattress. He was the only boy I knew that could walk all over the place on his hands. This beautiful little girl brought back those memories.❤

[@flyerb5041]

For Cashy's age, she is not only inquisitive at trying other sports, but she has the confidence to continually try new things. She watches and learns. Even when she is playing around a bit, she is still attentive. Mom and Dad have taught her that extensively while snowboarding. Plus, she has to be attentive given that just the smallest slip could cause her to hurt herself. And no one wants that. We are so blessed to be able to watch Cashy on her journey. And what a journey it is. Great job to the entire Rowley Family. Thanks for letting us follow along.

[@willowandtoffee1385]

That excitement is so cute ❤

[@arizonad8012]

The 12 years old is so mature. She did great job. The little one is gorgeous, and you can tell she is going to love doing this.

[@heatherpeck2227]

You are such good parents ! Luv watching your videos.

[@fionabarnes8255]

Great job that was awesome And the best that I have ever seen a 5 year old do it

[@charliewhon6548]

This was terrific. I teach littles how to ride horses and progression is key. I don’t remember much about gymnastics when I was little, but it was fun to see your progression and I was super excited for her when she nailed it!!! Great Job everyone!!! I loved your enthusiastic support.💕

[@christinaann7118]

This is a zero progression situation. Doubt this child can do a cartwheel or handstand roll.

[@charliewhon6548]

@@christinaann7118 it sounds like you understand gymnastics and the basic skill set of a beginner. That’s cool! I understand that she may have skipped the textbook checklist of skills, but she had a goal and she safely reached it; won’t this bring enthusiasm for her sport? My question is. did she get stronger, or more confident? Maybe she learned how to follow instructions or trust her spotter? By progression, I meant the process of steps; how they broke it down into achievable steps. Maybe progress of set skills is different, but I bet if she sticks with it, she will learn the skills you mention too. 😊

She stuck her landing!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 she is def understanding how to do a back flip!!

Keep working! The drills weren’t actually applied at the final spotted back tucks. She was just throwing her over. Make sure she jumps up (head in and not back) tucks … like they practiced earlier with her… and then rotates.

It's so funny to see her not in her snowboard gear. A reminder that she IS just a little girl not a tiny adult LOL!!!!!

[@Sc_ene.]

Ik this video was a year ago and she probably knows how to do like 5 of them in a row but if y’all go to the beach and she wants to do a backflip on the sand make sure to dig a hole not to deep and put the sand that was dig over the hole so it makes it softer to land idk if this will help but it might:)
