First you need to know how to do your kartwheel (with 2 hands). Then you need to know how to do a kartwheel with (one hand). Lastly get a coach to see you doing a normal kartwheel and the 1 handed kartwheel. If she says "yes now you are ready to do a aerial with my help" etc. then give it a try if you cant do it then you will have to pratice like every gymnast did. I hope this helps :)

An aerial cartwheel is an advanced skill that should never be attempted without proper strength, skill, and instruction. Additionally a proper surface such as a gymnastics floor should be used to minimize impact as well as the risk of twisting and ankle as this is a very real concern. To begin an aerial cartwheel the gymnast must first have a perfect running cartwheel with both hands and one hand first.

To execute an aerial cartwheel the front leg will have a deeper lunge out of the hurdle (the chest lowering closer to the knee), a quicker extension of the leg to propel the person upward, and a faster kick in the back leg. An aerial cartwheel is simply a stronger cartwheel that is a bit higher where your hands do not touch the ground. A good way to safely practice an aerial is to try a "really high" one handed cartwheel and continue to get higher until your hand just doesn't need to touch.

An aerial (or overhead) pass is one that is raised off the turf to a great height before falling back to the ground further down. They are used extensively by many teams to relieve pressure from the defense, present a breakaway oppportunity, or when a normal pass would be easily or likely intercepted. An aerial is done by raising the ball high in the air by either flicking or scooping the ball. It then should travel a fair distance before landing, being "caught" by another player, or going out of bounds. Because it takes much strength, body control, and practice to consistently do well when overheading, it is quite hard to do an aerial with both good range AND accuracy.

to do an Ariel you have to make alot of power out of not very much momentem. At first you should try it from a power hurdle or a step. Then you have to bend your legs and jump really hard and put your hands by your sides or crossed over your chest. you will feel yourself going down but don't put your hands down you will rise up. you have to kind of throw yourself down and kick your legs over hard enough to rise up. if you were on a panel mat and you were wearing slippery socks and you did an Ariel off of it you should land on your face because of your back leg kicking so don't try that. i hope this helped they are really fun once you get it.

Practice with your coach. Do not attempt unless your coach thinks you are ready.
