lol at Cathy -- that must have been SOME cartwheel, girl! :p
and, yep, i did one yesterday, in fact...we're in the midst of a big cartwheel/somersault phase around here! :) --denise :)
um, i think i would kill myself- have not tried it for the last 10 years! since then i have had 4 kids and 2 c sections- i might bust something- like my fat butt! LOL.

Heavens no. But Im overweight and out of shape. But a cartwheel be one of the first things I do when I get this weight off! I was a cheerleader for heaven's sake! LOL They are so fun!
Have YOU seen how far away the ground is nowadays?! The last time I considered it, I took one look at how far I had to bend over and scratched that plan!! eek!
Oh now I am going to do one at the park later! I use to do gymnastics right into high school. Competed at the provincials... loved it. Could do a back handspring into my late 20's but would never dare try it now. I think I could manage a cartwheel though. And hoping you are going to tell us why you are doing them really soon! ;)

It's been about a year since I last tried. It wasn't really a good idea. Something about being a little heavier on the bottom, and my arms not quite being prepared. At least no one was seriously hurt. I'm exercising again now, maybe I'll try again in a few months.

My students "con"ed me into cartwheeling the other day. It's great fun and sure to bring smiles. :) Hope your joy continues to overflow!

Funny you should ask. I was seriously thinking of doing one the other. I think I just might go out and try it right now. :)

Don't think so....I'm too much of a klutz. I'd hurt something.

I couldn't even do one of these when I was a kid! I would end up doing a "half cartwheel", which isn't nearly as satisfing or as impressive, lol!

I'd try it w/you! How far away are you from Albany Oregon? I have a good sized yard and you could bring Simon to play w/my kids!
Smiles!
