Backhandspring Fear

As a coach, I find myself in this position often. I know that this athlete is capable of doing a backhandspring. She KNOWS she can do a backhandspring. The only thing stopping her is her.
But that’s life, right? I’d bet you did something this week to get in your own way. 🤷🏾‍♂️ Fears tend to dictate our actions despite our capabilities. 💯
I have come to realize that an athlete that learns how to conquer their fear can transform into an adult who changes the world. So, I believe it is a disservice to mankind to get impatient with an athlete learning how to deal fear. #MindFull
People have called me “magical” when it comes to helping athletes overcome their fear. They say a magician never reveals his/her secrets, lol…but I’m willing to share two of mine.

I used to be scared of backhandsprings and now I'm working on my layout about a year later, push through your fears!

[@crazynat27]

I still am! Any tips on how to make it less scary?

[@obvixrosie]

@@crazynat27 wear cushioning on ur wrist for the first couple tries it makes it less scary

[@andrewqin1442]

[@priscillakelechi5757]

I’m learning my back handspring any tips to

[@jadelovatt96]

i did round of back handspring running double full yesterday out of nowere

[@bodi.a.r]

she literally looked like she had been doing it for ages. All she had to do was overcome that fear, nice.

[@Child_of_the_HolyTrinity1732]

Yeeeeesssss conquer that fear love.... I wish I would've had your bravery when younger. I wanted nothing more than to be a gymnast but I couldn't get past my "I'm a girl. I have no upper body strength" programming...... Fantastic job to all of you!! 🕊️💜

[@charleyanne]

Just the touch. You know they know you aren't there!!! You are very supportive! I enjoy your videos. I'm a past gymnast/cheer/dancer...I wish my coaches & instructors were like you. But that was back in the 80's-90's when things were different & allowed.

[@thecanfam478]

That was me today. I KNEW I had my back hand spring. I just couldn’t stop overthinking and telling myself “im scared, i need a spot”. The “magic finger” is what our coach for today called it. Just that 1 finger helped me do it. Its just the fear. STAY STRONG!!❤

[@jadevecchione5106]

I like how she just wanted to do it and didn’t give up!!

[@Tatertot45]

Not her being scared to whip out a beautiful spring. I know girls like this!

[@jenny1940]

Great Job and Great Coach!! 👏👏

[@anailycolon5407]

I relate to this so much. I have been trying to get over my fear for about a year now. But I have not gotten it yet. I know i can do it but it is all in my head. I neeeeeed you.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@LYRIC_AND_LAUFEY]

By chance did you get it a year later 🫶🏽 ?

[@Lainas.lifestyle]

I'm going through this rn, Monday I had tumble, and I know I could do it, but I had a mental block. I tried to tell myself that I could do it, but the mental block was too strong. I ended up doing 2 by myself and like 5 with a spot.

[@jadelovatt96]

me to i did 5 at once it was scary

[@milliesworldau]

Every gymnast/cheerleader will have a fear of back handsprings and I’m trying to get over my fear but seeing people get over their fear encourages me more!❤

[@taylorswiftfannnnnnnn1234]

exactly it’s not as easy as some people think it is cause i overthink my backhand spring

[@RuaLuithnire]

I love how you celebrate all their little and big victories!!! I would buy a soundtrack of all your encouragement and celebrations! I love it all!!! It’s impossible to watch your videos and not smile!
