Learn How to Au De Frente (Forward Cartwheel)

In this video I go through the progressions I am using to learn the Au De Frente, a forward cartwheel which comes from Capoeira.
It's similar to front walkover in Gymnastics, except a little more accessible for less bendy people like myself.
All you really need to get started in a basic cartwheel.
The key takeaways I found learning this one were:-
- You really need to push hard with the hands as you exit
- You need to try and keep the hips from collapsing on landing in order to exit
- It takes many repetitions to get the pattern, so don't be discouraged if its takes quite a few sessions.

Nice work! Love this movement!

[@agrifforama]

Thanks for checking out the vid!

[@aidenbromaghin7303]

This is a great breakdown. I've tried learning this a handful of times but never with success. I thought it was from a lack of mobility, but the technique analysis and progressions make a lot of sense and should make this much more achievable for me.

[@agrifforama]

Awesome my friend! My mobility isnt terrific, so in the beginning, a little extra speed can really help. Then as you improve your technique and mobility, you can start to slow it down.

[@Nahulanham]

Actually, it looks really good.

[@feetoffury]

Awesome video! Great to see the progression and your approach in general.

[@agrifforama]

Thank you! If you enjoyed this one I have a few other videos on this channel learning and sharing other cartwheels, flips and movement skills that might also interest you.

[@thepassivehang]

Love seeing the journey develop. I'm going to give these a crack tomorrow... The trying to land on one step is a great tip. I'm at the just landing in two footed sissy squat

[@agrifforama]

Awesome man! If you're landing on two feet already then you're half way there! Let me know how you go with the one foot landing! Enjoy my friend!

[@davidfreel1451]

Really nicely put together and encouraging and honest. Have a great year.

[@agrifforama]

Thank you

@@agrifforama Nah Man Thank YOU, your Macaco video was genius, the rotation from floating table top to three point bridge was the missing link between me and the monkey ! Before I was just jumping, now the wave has begun. If you ever have bother with your knees ( I'm 50) then there is a vid on my channel might be interesting. I'll be updating the refined and expanded version soon. Happy moving.😎

[@agrifforama]

@@davidfreel1451 perfect! Glad it helped. I'll check your video out. Inspiring work at 50. I'm 41.

[@agrifforama]

I love his stuff too! He's given me so much inspiration!

[@robertjoycetraining3126]

@@agrifforama yeah man I dream of putting together an edit that looks good one day haha. You learn these moves quick man!

[@megiMove]

So freaking cool!! Do u have a video or the name of backward cartwheel ido or Capoeira peeps do?

[@agrifforama]

I have a few videos you could check out on cartwheel variations and also macaco monkey flips.

[@paukung1403]

The backwards cartwheel is called Au de Costas/Costa.

[@osamardi7836]

I have a question what’s easier this or reversao

[@agrifforama]

In my opinion, this one is easier. I find the Reversao needs a little more courage to pull off.

[@nahulanham1821]

I feel you.

[@agrifforama]

Let's go

[@Nahulanham]

Now reverse that for a Macaque.
