These skills are then covered in the next sections; ‘Jumps’, ‘Skills’, ‘Rolls’ and ‘Leaps’. Bringing all of these skills together, the book then demonstrates how combined, these skills can be used to create routines.

This book ranges in difficulty from more simple ‘One Foot Stand’ balances to the very complex ‘Handstand Balances’, ‘Flying Angel’ balances and many more.

Nicola –
I got this set for my daughters who are new to gymnastics and keen to improve their skills. They have these in the kitchen so are accessible when they want to practice either on their own or when they have friends come over. Has been used a lot over the summer holidays. Is easy to understand and they love the way stands up by itself so can be referenced. Even in winter when cannot practice outside still do what they can indoors. They can use these anywhere.
