How can i practice flips without breaking my neck ?

Im really into free running but i want to step it up a level. What shall i do to start learning front flips and back flips ?
Answer:

Well maybe you should start off with the crab position which is really easy if you don't know what it is it looks like this http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?imgurl=http://www.stockphotopro.com/photo-thumbs-2/stockphotopro_99041dqm_home_sppuser_supe.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.stockphotopro.com/photo_of/african/99041DQM/Woman_in_crab_walk&usg=__e96Z3wNgqnc5YTi-dS1tOe0ThOc=&h=265&w=400&sz=51&hl=en&start=32&zoom=1&tbnid=LRRlE6OEFgH8gM:&tbnh=166&tbnw=224&ei=YcBmTY28INHy4gb6of2UCQ&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dhuman%2Bcrab%2Bposition%26hl%3Den%26biw%3D1400%26bih%3D959%26gbv%3D2%26tbs%3Disch:10,501&itbs=1&iact=rc&dur=331&oei=WsBmTZGtCsK1hAfBzNGvDQ&page=2&ndsp=32&ved=1t:429,r:5,s:32&tx=154&ty=123&biw=1400&bih=959 Then go next to a couch and try to put yours legs on it from the crab position and keep on practising that way and try to get balance then try to get faster and faster :) - Hope i helped good luck Also if you got access to a trampoline with a net its easy to do back flips on it with no experience but really easy on BOUNCY CASTLES lol

try trampolines or a woodward type training center thats what i do woodward is really helpful if theres one near you and if you are ghetto just lay down like a matress and flip onto it

Go to your local gymnastics center and they will have an open gym. I suggest asking one of the coaches to help you with it on the trampoline then graduate to you doing it alone on the trampoline then on the spring floor and finally on normal ground. Hope this helps! :)

Usually using a trampoline helps to get your body used to it. That's what I did at least.
