I got my side aerial when I was 10. I think these there are a few things that people overlook: 1.Put your force into jumping up and not forward 2.the arms are very important, they carry a lot of the momentum 3.The aerial is very trial and error, you have to find the correct position after a few attempts

[@bellct4980]

Yes lol it’s easy but it’s also hard. It takes a lot of practice.

[@Maya66130]

I done it today and I realise it’s a lot about the arms, like if I put them at the front then I don’t get enough height and speed and just fall or put my hands down, but if I have them on the side then get speed and more height

[@lailaharvey1252]

Another tip is to fold the mat and jump off of that and keep going lower until you can get it on the floor that’s how I got mine

[@CarissaCampbellDances]

Great tip!

[@Alexa.swims44]

Thanks for the tip! I got my Ariel because of ur tip! thanks!

[@paveschooloftheartsdances7999]

@@Alexa.swims44 wow I’m in level 3 tumbling and to get to 4 you have to do a side aerial and I can do one on a trampoline and on floor idk why I can’t do it 🌻

[@emmalee4987]

@@paveschooloftheartsdances7999 i got my side aerial a year ago (working on front aerials now), here is some tips! first tip, you should get a solid dive pop up cartwheel which i think carissa explained in the video, then you try your aerial off a curb or an elavated surface. second tip, you could hold something in your hands that you dont want to be slammed into the ground, i tried that to get my one handed cartwheel and it worked. third tip, try and put your hands by your sides when trying an aerial. dont put them by your face, but by your hips so then your hands will be off the ground for longer. good luck!! ☺️

Dude literally same I just can not do itttt!!

[@sammvcg1687]

In what type of dance are you? 🥺

[@emmalin9271]

one of the best tips for aerials or any trick in general of just any dance move that requires focus is to breathe in before you do it (like breathing in when you plié or hurdle) then breathing out when you do the trick. even with turns and relevés just breathing out when you do it helps so much. this helped me get more height in my aerial

[@hallienoelle398]

I’m so close to my aerial at dance we are learning them and I can’t seem to get it but this is helping a lot thankssss

[@robloxadventures5495]

Thank you! I’m learning my aerial right now and I found a few videos so far that are great! Yours is my favorite because you have different cartwheel variations for us to try before doing it to help make it feel similar!

[@jemma-skyeharris8518]

I have my side aerial but my weak ankles and knees really arent helping me lol

[@evelyn-fj4wz]

thank u for thissss! can you do a la seconde turns next??

[@al3x14]

You’re aerial is beautiful, I have mine but I’m just having trouble placing my arms to make it look cleaner and nice looking for the finish.

[@Oliivv224]

Hey! If you're still touching the ground even though you're not pressing your hands, here are some tips. 1. Some people find it helpful to hold something soft on your hands (scrunchies are good). 2. Film yourself and notice the mistakes. 3. A lot of people say to kick your feet hard in the air and keep your chest up, which is basically what you should do. But the easiest way to do an aerial is to do it like this: when you start to do an aerial, lower your chest while kicking your leg. This gives more space for your legs. As your back leg goes up in the air, lift your chest up. It gives you more space and power for your legs. I hope these were helpful!

[@Ant_0n_y0u]

I just got my aerial but it’s hard to do it again I will def be using these tips

[@sarrionnah9750]

can you do a front ariel next

[@jellyylei8224]

This is like the only tutorial that helped me! I got it right after watching and adding those tips!!!!!!

[@lilydont121]

Your tips helped me get closer to getting my side aerial! Thanks!

[@emmalee4987]

I'm kinda late but i recommend trying to get a good height off of the ground when doing a cartwheel/attempting an aerial. when you have a good height you should try and attempt it off a little ledge. maybe fold up a gymnastics mat and do it off there.

[@emmalee4987]

If you don't have it yet

[@lilydont121]

@@emmalee4987 Thanks! I'm going to try that.

[@karenmcelvaney5175]

this is so smooth.

[@calliesrescues8234]

I have a great dive cartwheel, a great hurdle, and I can almost do one, but I put my hands on the ground less then a second!! But when I try I start off really good, but I always land on my side!!!! Whyyyyytt

[@bray_rae]

Hi Bless you I don't care who you are just bless you😇

[@brynniesangels]

Tysm!!! My dance friends and I are trying to get ours!!

[@Casserole_Sweet]

I just recently got my aerial and this video helped a lot! The tip that I would give is to push very hard with your back leg. It will give you enough power to make it all the way around!

[@C-O-U-N-T-R-YY]

What do you mean push with your back leg? I'm so sorry lol. :)

[@sofi4esb0nita]

I didn’t have my Ariel at all but after watching this I was like “Wow. I’m so close it’s just a mental thing”

[@SandyMayasDance]

great explanation!

Omg omg tysm this helped so much you did great

I just got my side aerial so I'm gonna apply these tips

[@savannahanthony9671]

I accidentally did an Ariel when i used to Do cheer competition and it was suppost to be just a diving cartwheel but it just happened and i havent been able to do it again since

[@Clowillxo]

That’s so cool and funny

[@chloecordero9914]

Watching this bc I haven’t done mine in 10 months bc of covid and I’m scared to do it at home

[@PedroGarcia-vi9ie]

Im so excited i have been trying to do an aerial since i was eight or nine and now im 11 turning twelve and yesterday while i was at gymnastics i kept on practicing and my coach said i was so close and she motivated me to do it and i finally did it after so many years of practice but then my right foot was in pain for the rest of the night when i walk.lol😂😅 Here are some tips if you put your hands down: Practice until your hands only touch nearly at the end (takes a while but works) Get enough power by running and sort of jumping into it so you wont feel like youll hit the ground. Throw your hands back if youre close Then put them all together and practice until you get it(worked for me)btw it didnt actually take me that long to learn but i had to stop for two years because of covid so it didnt take that long i got serious about training this year. Oh i forgot another thing that helped me was flipping faster because it was too long my aerial but not fast enough

[@bellct4980]

I’m learning a side aerial. It is hard. I almost did it on ground, but I landed on my knees, if I went faster I could of did it. I should have pulled in more too.

[@Em_-en2xp]

I’m almost 16 and I still can’t get it. I get so close and then I get so scared. I have the things other than a hurdle but I’m so scared to do it. A few kids in my studio have tried and one almost broke themselves and I watched it happen so i have been so scared sense.

[@Coxvqa_en_francais]
