Tumbling, by definition, is “the skill, practice, or sport of executing gymnastics feats (such as somersaults and handsprings) without the use of apparatus”. Tumbling, just like anything else, is taught from the ground up. When first beginning tumbling, students learn somersaults, or forward rolls, and cartwheels. As they progress, they are taught different handsprings, tucks, layouts, and twisting skills.
Tumbling is a physically demanding sport, tumblers must be able to carry their own weight and gain the momentum necessary to perform the skill with enough height, so that they may land it. Tumbling not only requires agility and physical strength, it also requires mental strength. Tumblers have to cope with their fears and attempt skills that are not only dangerous with inadequate coaching, but they still have to be prepared to fall a few times in the process.
