    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.......

    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.

      @paypaypay272 4 роки тому +12

      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.

    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

    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.

      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 😊

      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

    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:)))

      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'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!

      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

    • @jennasharma285
      @jennasharma285 8 років тому

      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!!

    • @beckysberries4441
      @beckysberries4441 8 років тому +1

      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

      @andinelson2945 8 років тому

      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. 😂

    • @kaitlinf4419
      @kaitlinf4419 8 років тому

    • @spanglelime
      @spanglelime 8 років тому +3

      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.

    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!
