I have waited so long to say this.....Ladies and gentlemen I GOT MY AERIAL!!!
I still don't have it solid, so I can't make it every time, but I'll keep working on it until I perfect it.
Thank you all for your support and all of your ideas and tips!
Much love from Lyd!

No coach or anyone to help her correct technique. She just plugged away at it until she figured it out for herself. Who in the world would criticize this kind of spunk and ingenuity.......
Tia Thompson I agree
Tia Thompson agree
Tia Thompson your right she's the best😄😄😄😄😄
Tia Thompson I'm the same way but I just watch her
You are amazing and leave me speechless!!!😉😉😉
I saw a couple comments saying she shouldn't have cried over that. Well being self tought and getting a Ariel is such a good achievement. And I cried over getting my back walkover. Yea it's not a big achievement but if you have been working on it and getting angry you couldn't so it and things like that then getting the skill that you were working for makes you confident in yourself and makes you just happy. That's why she cried and why I cried and why anyone else cried for getting a skill.
I'm self tought and I get so happy I cry when I get a new trick downn
exactly I cried when I got my aerial on trampoline
I cry when I get a new skill because I'm self taught and us self taught people working 2x harder than gymnasts that have coaches to correct and spot them. I've worked on an aerial for a long time and I'm finally getting close and us self taught people should get a medal for our struggle. We fall and get hurt a lot more than gymnasts with coaches.
Bliss x Full I cried when I got in on ground and we haven’t done aerials in gym yet
But you can get help with aerials while people that are self taught cant
If you are too scared to do a skill that you know you can do close your eyes and count to five or whatever number helps you and as soon as you open them run and do the skill immediately after you open your eyes. That trick works so well for me
♡♡♡ Thx for the tip
Thx for the tip
So true
Thanks
🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
After my third try I would've went inside and started eating Pringles...
Plz tell me I'm not the only one...
VANILLA 1234 no.. u are the only one..
I love Pringles and I do that all the time
Story of my life
VANILLA 1234 maybe...
nope can soo relate
you really inspired me to do gymnastics.. i thought im too late to learn gymnastics skills cause i am 12 now because im not allowed to go to the gymnastic class.. but ur family supportive..
ellie rhyme I’m sure there are other places you can go but I’m sure you’d be great
Same, I'm not allowed and I am 11 and I'm going to be 12 soon.I started doing gymnastics about 10 months ago I really hope I get my airiel good luck with gymnastics!
Same!!
DJ Mist hi my name is Ariel
DJ Mist halo
No one is meant to be perfect and get skills automatically., they have to try and never give up.
I swear I see you on every video I watch.
Pizza Lover true I got my aerial
Unless you’re God or something
True
I LOVE HOW LYDIA CRIES WHEN SHE GETS SKILLS IT'S SO CUTE
Beep Beep Lettuce ikr! Just like with her back tuck
Sheet of paper I know so sweet
Sheet of paper yh :)
Sheet of paper at is self taught 😆
SpongeBob SquarePants I know I am so proud of you.
Being self taught is hard you know... You can get VERY frustrated by yourself and you can think " maybe.. I should just stop" but Lyd was confident herself and didn't give up I'm really happy she got her aerial 😭< tears of joy
I can do backwalkovers,front walkovers,back bends and a little bit more i did not get help from anyone that's because I taught myself
Ik I'm self tought I think the best tip is to go for it like don't be scared
I watched this today and this is the day I got my aerial
Same
Same
Same
Cool
Same
the best thing is that she never stopped trying she kept on going until she proved she did which is amazing and I have my sats on monday and I will never stop trying 😙😙
Crystal_wxlf_editz lol I had my SATs at the same time as you!!
There's nothing more amazing to watch than see people reach their goal💖
Ikr it makes my day 100 times better💕
I almost cried when I got mine. I held it back because my whole class was watching. You did great!!!
I love how excited she gets when she gets a new skill
Art Lover 101 yess
Art Lover 101 she's self taught
I am so proud of you Lydia ❣️I have been subscribed for SOOO long!! i remember the days you were practicing front walkovers! Now you have your aerial!! 💝 I can't express how happy i am for you 😘 I wish we could chat like you did when you had like 5000 subs.. You always replied to every comment, but now you've so many subscribers it's hard to keep track, ESPECIALLY when ur practicing as hard as this!!! 😻 I love you so much lydia, you have inspired me to work hard like you do, and take it seriously! 😘❤️☺️
Enderwolfgymnast i know right I am so happy for her
Enderwolfgymnast omg same she finally got it so mean full that she took her time and practiced over and frustration get her to her landing one that's right be strong 💪 work hard and never give up
Lyd's Vyds just be strong work hard and never give up u go girl go make the world keep it up and never doubt urself Lydia
Enderwolfgymnast
Enderwolfgymnast I
that is so cool, i just got mine yesterday, and the thing that most helped me was, having a big hurdle and, driving my feet over fast enough. good job
How do you put your feet over your head really fadt
@@veronicabedorf8322 practice super fast cartwheels, and then super fast one handed cartwheels
I got my aerial! This is not fake scams at all! Yay!!!! P.S Lydia is great and it is cool that she got her aerial being self taught. Edit-wow I expected to get like three likes thank you guys! This is the most likes I have ever gotten!
Piper Xox I got mine too like two months ago and I'm so proud of us lol even though i don't know you 😂
Jaya Wood hahahah we are awesome
Piper Xox I also got it self-taught bit she got it first than me
Sourar 2004 oh cool mine was self taught as well!
Summer aww that's awesome!!
Tip: Don't run too fast or you will lose your momentum.
2 Tip: Keep stretching our middle splits just till your but is at the height of a basket ball and your in your straddle.
3 Tip After your warm ups start with basic tumbling and after your comfortable a skill then keep moving on the the difficult and challenging skills. Tip With your side ariel practice slow normal cartwheels and try to point your toes. Once you have practiced that you need to move on to practicing your dive and pop up cartwheels while keeping our toes pointed. Lastly keep your arms tucked don't have them hanging down otherwise all your arm wait will pull you down also also cause your arms get in the way.
4 Tip With your ariel try to look at your landing ground.
Good job Lyd for me as a gymnast i would like to say i'm proud that even though you don't have anything fancy to help your ariels your sill managing to teach yourself and that's an even greater strength good work. keep it up.
My aerial was the HARDEST skill to learn. I also learned in my backyard with no coach. I learned back tucks and every imaginable skill before I could ever learn my aerial and when I finally got it I cried of happiness. It’s one of those things that’s so hard to get and then once u have it solid you wonder “how did it take me so long it’s so easy” lol good job I’m very proud
Lydia,
Don't listen to he haters out there, you do what you do and what you is do is amazing!! You teach yourself gymnastics with no coach, no training, no real equipment but somehow you do it! You inspire people everyday to keep going and never give up, and that is a quality not every person has. Keep doing what you do, and don't let anyone get in your way, because you are a strong, brave, confident young women! You are a future Olympian in my eyes:)))
Victoria Grabois. That is right dont let anybody get in your say
No ones hating.
Congrats. I got my aerial at the beginning of last year it took me 3-4 years... also I love your shirt... 'Warning gymnast may flip at any time'
Emily Bruce g I got mine in 2 days...
She just kept going even if she got hurt she inspires me as a self taught gymnast
Her outfit is so cute!!
I like how Lyds here self teaching herself an aerial
im here in gymnastics working on cartwheels. ..
ARandomGymnast03 SAME LOL
ARandomGymnast03 lol
ARandomGymnast03 lol
ARandomGymnast03 I am really good at gymnastics and I'm self trained
looking for any gymnasts/ anyone at this point who want to be on my channel must have the following skills. handstand backbend backbend kick over roundoff
You’re such an inspiring girl, you never give up in your practice, with no teacher or coach to supervise you, you break through all odds to figure out a way to accomplish what you want (even if you have to get hurt or injured through countless trials) YOURE AMAZING :3
This is called true dedication, just trying and trying, and when you succeed, you feel amazing. Fantastic job Lydia!
Getting your aerial... priceless🤗
i’ve been working on my back handspring for 3 years still haven’t gotten it :(
Youll eventually get it it took me 7 months to get it
It took my 2 weeks I got it last week but it took me 2 years to get my aerial so never give up
Aye did u get it?
I got my back handspring by doing back walkovers and slowly jump into them! But you really need to stretch first, especially your wrists, hope this helps guys 🤗
Get a spot (u probably got it by now if not that's okay too!) It took me 2 days to get it but that's because I had a coach. It took me 5 years to get an aerial no joke I got it when I was five then could never do it until I was 10!
This was one of the best videos I have ever seen I always struggle and you inspirer me so thank you 😀🤸🏼♀️
I went to a gym club for 6 weeks and Learnt a cartwheel then I stopped, now I’ve learnt a back bend hand stand box splits round off round off half twist and much much more because of you 😂😘😂😘👍👍👍😘😘❤️😍💕😝😝😝😝 thank you so so much
I am so happy for you you are so good keep going I can't wait for so more just never give up on your goals and you can do everything I am really proud of you and I can't wait to see what next
😊
I love how you just get closer and closer then finally hard work pays off
U make it look easy😄
Georgia Georgia same
it's not that hard..
I can relate because I'm also self taught and I also just learned how to do an ariel
Daria Krohmal im self taught and working on mine any tips
Jordan Martinez jump as high as u can and when you do and Ariel go close to ur foot that u hurdled with and do it really fast
Any tips plzz
ly gymnast I gave tips in the replays
ly gymnast reply
Anyone have tips I have my BHS in the trampoline but I have mental blocks about going back on the ground
Cheyenne Young maybe the ground is to hard and not bouncy enough?? Don't worry though. This mental block happens to everyone and you will get over it. I have a mental block of handstands so what I'm doing is doing something I love( cartwheels) and stop them at the top on my couch. Now I can do them on beam for dismounts. Hope this helps 😊
I got my bhs on the ground by having support and then I asked for shadowing then they just say I did it my help for a mental block is for trying it on a really soft mat or mattress and then eventually try on the ground . You will eventually get it
Cheyenne Young try learning back walk over first that helped me a lot !
Try having someone spot you on an air mat or trampoline, but dont swing, just go back. After you perfect it on there, have someone spot you on a mat. Again one you perfect it on there, have someone spot you on the ground, until you can do it by yourself
have a spot
Who else was also guessing which try it would be
JRGymnastics yes
JRGymnastics me
JRGymnastics me
Molly Elisabeth
JRGymnastics make some videos girl
CONGRATS LYD! You're reaction was amazing!
Your so amazing and your reaction was exactly like mine when I taught myself an ariel or starting to get it while teaching my self early last year... you are truly inspiring and a great role model to others. ❤️
Yessss!1!!! How do you get over your fear!?!?!?!
by training really hard! :) but safely
Madison Adams your not first. This was posted 6 days ago and you posted the comment 17 hours ago. Not even a full day.
Florence Ella I never said I was first????? Where did you get that from!!?!?!?!
Geekkitten thank you!
Madison Adams youre welcome. and btw they probably got confused bc in one on ur "!" u put a 1
This is for haters...
Stop being rude.
She works so hard, and all you haters think you can just be rude to her like that! Oh that just plain old selfish
TheBellaAndBethyShow so true
Bethy And Bella This is UA-cam btw and that means it's a place of freedom and hate too, deal with it
Bethany Ellie YOU FRICKING TELL THEM 😀
E S P E A R L Shut up bloody hater hate yourself not people
Renee O'Neill You were hating when you wrote that comment, so you are a hater too.
im also self taught and i just can’t keep my hands off the ground when I try mine!!
Me too
same its so scary
Hi guys! A way you can get your aerial is by folding gym mats so they are a big block or use something to spring off of! Also, before fully going into your aerial, try doing cartwheels and taking your hands off for a split second! But it is really scary, I understand, hope this helps!!!!
I wish I had a family that supports me when I do gymnastics
More Panda Lover true cause my dad just says stop flipping urself
More Panda Lover true cause my dad just says stop flipping urself
Fiona Youscar
same but it's more of my sister she always says "one day your going to hurt yourself" but I already did I twist my ankle but I still do gymnastics if thay like it or not, I like gymnastics and if I want to do gymnastics I can do gymnastics
More Panda Lover i know right!!!
I'm self taught my parents are really supportive sometimes my dad tries to do stunts it's funny 😂 but they don't have money for me to go to a real place so I'm a self taught dancer,and gymnast at home 😊
I like your channel so much because your the best self-taught gymnast I know and I’m a self-taught gymnast too!!! 💓😊
same! :)
Tiffany Lim same
Tiffany Lim sameee
Same
Tiffany Lim me too like same
Just a tip- you should try looking forward in your hurdle instead of down it’ll help you get more height even though it’s scary to not see when you’re coming to the ground, I gives more power and makes the aerial way easier!
I'm so glad u got your Ariel! Here are some tips....... scoop before going into it like ur getting ice cream and bend the mat up all the way and work ur way down and everytime u do that keep ur arms bent on the mat. Hope this helps! I know u already got it but for anyone who needs help her are some tips!
Bay M what ? X
people this called hard work!
KylieZ yes it is!
KawaiiM u missed a word
People this IS called hard work

I am SO happy for Lyd! She deserved to get this skill, and she worked SO hard for it! Congrats, Lyd, if you see this!
Aw Ltd I'm so proud of you💞Great job!
Video starts: 0:00
Gets her aerial: 3:51
Crys: 3:53
Ends: 5:53
Thanks for the first one and last one ( definitely did not know 😂😂😁)
It ends at 5:52 Not 5:53 get it right.
@@jocelynvelazquez7950 no at 5:53 stop insulting her and u r wrong
Jocelyn Velazquez she meant she stops crying at that time your so rude assuming things
I can do a standing aerial with no bounce on a trampoline but I can't do it on ground for some reason. Any tips??
Patricia C SAME
Patricia C maybe u are scared
Patricia C practice and you will get there. Also big big jump helps
Patricia C same here
Try to go high and fast and try to keep your hands by your chest
Could you do an aerial tutorial. because I've been trying to get an aerial for AGES and I need tips
Fenne Saaf i tell my self that by practicing a certain way itll help, but it doesnt bc im not even practicing right
Fenne Saaf try forcing one of your arms up, and sort of letting one of them down, but at the same time keeping it up. It sounds confusing but that's how I got mine. 😂
just keep your arms up that's how I got myn and if u have a tramp practise them with 1 bounce
Fenne Saaf check out the Cheernastics2 channel. They have a mountain of tutorials for skills, they're really supportive of self-taught gymnasts and they have a great side aerial tutorial with good tips. Not that I'm trying to direct traffic away from Lydia, I thought they were really helpful is all. I'm too decrepit and broken to flip anymore. I wish I'd had youtube when I was younger to do things like this before my body broke on me.
Kaitlin Feather my acro couch said that its not good to do it an tramp because it makes you do something that you shouldn't be, but if it worked for you 👍
I got my Aerial yesterday,I'm sooo happy😄😄😄😄
gymnastgirl144 well done! I got my front handspring about a week ago
gymnastgirl144 congratulations! 😁
Jack Dylan Grazer you are a boy...
Congrats! ✌🏻
Awesome Drawings so? Boys can do gymnastics
You know she is truly happy and thankful when she is sick, sore, dramatic and is about to cry! Give this girl some credit!!!👑💞
Me here in 2019: I wanna try!
_realizes this vid is 2 years old and now in everyone’s recommend l_
I’m here in 2021
Yay I'm proud of you!
You are so good at tumble for being self taught I would never even have a back end if I didn't have someone to help me. Lydia don't let anyone tell you different you are amazing, talented, beautiful and so so smart
Yeeeeee, I suck at aerials but I can do them...lol
They kill my ankles
SpongeBob SquarePants omg same
Lyds vyds I can't believe you did that!!!! You are so amazing and inspire me everyday!!!
I was watching this last night and TODAY I GOT MY AERIAL ON THE HIGH BEAM all thanks to this video I can do it love you lots Lydia ♥️♥️
Congrats Lyd! Your Awesome!! ❤️😍👍🏼👍🏼
i am so happy for you!!! i am trying to get my ariel do you have any tips?
Agent_BEAN make sure you pull up real highly when you're about to go into it.
thanks!
also be flexible, it really does help. be able to do a straddle and a solid cartwheel and then try dive cartwheels. once you can do a good one handed dive cartwheel try doing them of a height and remember to jump up, not forwards
Agent_BEAN.....Ok whip your legs really fast and push off your front leg. I suggest you say your corrections while you run before your airel. Make sure you don't have a mental block CUZ if your close and you keep putting your hands down try holding something like a scrunchie so you don't put your hands down. And always video yourself so you can see what you need to work on. Most people like to put their hands down even though they don't need to so just know your not the only one. (I'm that gal who helped 3 people get their AIREL by telling them this stuff)GOOD LUCK!!!! Have fun!!
Agent_BEAN jump super high and focus right at first on spreading your legs as far apart as possible so it will whip your legs around faster and it will be a little sooner that your legs touch the ground
I can't believe Lid can do that! Nice job Lid!
If I hurt my ankle like you. And my sister would be like “u ok?” And not help she’d just stand there *rez people* 😒😒😭😂
I know that no one cares but at practice today I got my backhandspring and soon I will be moving up to silver!!! I'm so excited
Itz Just Kate congratulations
Itz Just Kate YAY
CONGRATULATIONS!!! I used to be a gymnast, so I know how exciting it is! Yay!
Wait? r u in the xcel program, too? or a different? bc right now i'm xcel silver, and i barely meet anyone in the same usag xcel program, they're all in usag jo.
Itz Just Kate CONGRATS!
I remember I was SOO excited when that happened, great job!! 😘💕
You are the best.1 have also thought to be a gymanst but when I tried I fell and stopped but when I watched your video it inspired me and now I can do many skills
Congrats Lydia you totally deserved it
One time I was practicing my one handed cartwheels and I accidentally did an aerial. It was cool but I didn’t land it.
NaturesGem AJ one time I did a back handspring and I could do it for ages then broke my elbow
You're so amazing! Super inspiring and never ever gave up even when you fall you have to get right back up. I am a gymnast and I think every gymnast should see how hard you work. GREAT JOB! I always watch this video and I always cry on it, it is so heart warming and you are awesome.
aha you should try parkour and freerunning tricks for a video "gymnast tries parkour" that would be really funny!
I love that you never give up
stephanie rosales same
I would not get mad if you cried because I cried with you! You made it and it took for ever. I am proud!😊😊😊😊
Im self taught to and here is a tip... have something in your hands like 2 Stones or something... just try it😄
Serena Van der Woodsen would that bring your hands down if their heavy ?
Serena Van der Woodsen is that to try and stop yourself from putting your hands down
Serena Van der Woodsen no try putting food in your hands
No one puts food on the ground
NaynaySlayy Xoxo if that becomes an issue take some paper and crumble it up
Kawaii Girl yes
Where did you get your shirt?
+Lyd's Vyds gooood. Job. Lyd!!!
Alaina Bechard OmG I HAVE THE SAME SHIRT 😂😂😂😂😱😱😱AS HER!!!
Alaina Bechard Amazon
Omg and the fact she teached herself good job you did amazing girly!!!❤❤❤
I got my first aerial 1 year ago
and actually i was trying 2,5 year
i remember how difficult it was for me and now so easy
I am so happy 😊
Good job Lyd!
you are such an amazing gymnast and whoever tells you that youre not, dont let them discourage. you learned how to do several different advanced skills without a coach or a gym. i hope yiu never give up and always try your hardest! i know that you will become an even better self taught gymnast as you practice more and more.❤️💜
YESS EARLY
Ezza 450 same reaction for me
1 year 😳
Ikr!!!
Shalom Khumalo lol imr
It literally took me 4 years to get my aerial
Ma Ba Stop lying
@@dolantwinfandom7168 it's no lye...I never tried an Ariel before because I don't have a trampoline or something like that....I'm self-taught and when I was outside I decided to try it and it worked
Wow you are just plain AMAZING! You inspired me to start gymnastics and I am self taught. Last year I didn't even know how to do a cart wheel, but now I am trying to do an aerial on my trampoline. All I want to say is thank you for inspiring me to accomplish so much!
Where do you get that matt!???
Mari-Liis I think eaby
i think she said amazon
Mari-Liis ebay
hi i just watched the tribute type video and it almost made me cry because u were trying so hard and people hated on you and and they didn't let you in because of age but you proved them WRONG 🖒🖒
That’s the struggle I deal with too! When I go practice it starts raining and then the grass is wet for a few days after!
You so deserved to get that Ariel you tried so hard
Don’t worry, I cried when I got my arial... and when I got my back tuck, I was a very happy girl😂
A long time ago I was obsessed with a channel called foreverandsoph. I watched one of their videos called Lydia, the 19 year old self taught gymnast. I loved hr story and decided to check out her channel. At that time she only had a few hundred subscribers and started watching her. I loved her but then I watched most of her videos. I waited for her to post more. But sadly forgot to check her channel. A little while later(now)I check her subscribers and wht I see? 78k subscribers!! Lyd u improved so much from when u started. You've inspired me to not give up and got my front handspring on the ground, and just recently a kick Over! Ilysm and you can be in the olympics if u pursue gymnastics, and you can be a self taught Olympian! Sounds awesome to meh, I train at a gym, and ur better than me! Go lyd!!!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ps I just subscribed so I'll see her updates and won't forget!
You are amazing don't listen to the haters
Well Done Lydia! 💗 Any tips for becoming a self taught gymnast?
You are such an inspiration! I could not get my side aerial whenever I tried and I would get so triggered. But after watching this it inspired my to keep pushing and trying to get! And about a week ago........... I FINALLY GOT IT! ily
Today I just learned how to do an aerial and thanks for the advice and also anyone here 2019???:3
04:14 secret dabb
I love that you are a self taught i used to think I sucked since I didn't take classes but now that I found your channel I feel better being a self taught gymnast ❤️ from 🇨🇦
When you landed wrong I did the same and now I can't do gym for 4-6 weeks 😒🙄 because I did an Ariel wrong
MittensTheHamster 101 I broke my wrist and I couldn't do gym for about 3 months. I'm starting back in January, though! Don't worry, it'll go by really fast!
Hey It's Em same hahaha I subscribed
MittensTheHamster 101
I really want my Ariel to but I haven't been that sore you want it more than me
I’ve been trying to get my aerial for about 3-4 years? And I’ve been trying loads but never got it , but today I was determined. I did it off a raised surface and then lowered it , I then put it flat and did my first ever aerial !! I was so happy and I cried (tears of joy) I’m so glad I never ever stopped trying !!
Yaaas
You should stretch you splits more so it's easier to get your legs over
i am a massive fan of yours ive watched ypu since you started you tube !you go girl!you have even motavated me to start doing gymnastics at home and youve got me so far thank you so much!!!🤸
To land easier you should keep your chest up.
