• Answer:

  You need to stretch and stretch to get those splits. Stretching will also help you straddle in that cartwheel. Handstands will help you get that cartwheel nice and tall. (You can see videos of handstands and cartwheels here: http://aescougarcheer.com/Cheer101/tumbling.htm ) For the herkie, watch a video here: http://aescougarcheer.com/Cheer101/SkillsandDrills.htm#jumps For the somersaults do this: 1) Put the back of your hands on your shoulders like you are delivering pizzas. 2) Scooch down to the floor and smoosh the pizzas on the ground, keeping your hands flat on the ground. 3) Stick your bum up in the air and tuck your head in to look at your belly button. (This is very important. Tucking your head protects it and your neck.) 4) Push off with your legs, let your bum fall to the ground, and roll down your spine. 5) Put your arms out and stand up.
