At a young age, it is sometimes a hard concept to grasp as well.  WE decided that a clinic dedicated to the Cartwheel would benefit so many kids. When you break this skill down, you then realize it breaks out into numerous amounts of different drills and progressions.  The mechanics of a cartwheel should flow in one motion.
