Kiwi sport | Gymnastics

LI: To develop body movement of balance, rotation & strength.

Today LS1 group B had their gymnastics session for kiwi sport. We first started off with our stretches. The type of stretches we did was the L shape, Seal, Butterfly, cat, straddle, back front side support. We do these kind of stretches because it loosens up our mussels.

Rotation 1:
Our first rotation included the beam, box, and the bench. On the beam we had to walk backwards and be careful at the same time. As we walk backwards when we get to the end we check first. On the box we had to do a cartwheel over it. And Finlay on the bench we had to do a forward roll.

Rotation 2: 
On the second rotation there was a trampoline to jump on and do a shape like a starfish in the air. Then we had to do a backwards roll on the soft ramp. With our hands on our head and looking at our belly button. After that we had to do a scorpion handstands. And lastly there was another trampoline that we had to jump on a do a 180 spin in the air.

Rotation 3:    
On our last rotation we had to do a handstand on the wall and lift each leg. Then we had to do the back/side/front rotation. before the parallel bars is when you have to life yourself up onto the bars.

I found the stretches and the back roll on the ramp difficult.
