Toe touch - it is all about leg strength and the ability to throw your legs up nice and high. So work your leg strength with things like squats, jumps, running up and down stairs, and so on. Try practising them on a trampoline, it gives trains your body on what it is suppossed to feel like, so when you take it back to floor it will be easier.
Round off - Make sure you have a strong powerful hurdle. Hurdle forward rather than up and have your arms glued to your ears when you hurdle. Turn your second hand in so that the fingers face towards the first hand. Try and snap your feet together and snap them down. Keep your arms by your ears throughout the whole skill even at the end because it will help you lead into a backhandspring or a back tuck. |
