Tumbling Clinics
Session #1: Friday 8/2/24
Session #2: Friday 8/16/24
The Ohio State University Tumbling Clinics are designed for males and females in grades 7-12 (as of fall 2024) looking to train tumbling skills. Participants at the clinic will be split into two groups based on ability.
Group 1: Backhandsprings
Group 2: Tucks, Layouts and Full twisting layouts.
Prerequisites required:
Group 1: (Backhandspring) Participants should be able to hold a solid handstand (against a wall for 10+ seconds)
Group2: (Tucks, layouts, and fulls) Participants need a solid unassisted standing backhandspring.
All participants will work with and be under the instruction of the Ohio State University Cheerleading Coaching Staff and select team members. Each group will be divided into subgroups to work drills, progressions, and skills. The clinic will take place on non-spring cheerleading mats as well as the opportunity to utilize an AirTrack.
