This young man showed great progress with his cartwheel control, core strength and bridge-over movement.

He is coming back straighter, moving with better control, and building confidence through practice.

Well done 👏

Adults often see a cartwheel and think: “I could never do that.”

But this is not about the cartwheel.

It is about strength, balance, confidence and waking up the spark that work-home-repeat can bury.
