11. Candlestick

This is probably a gymnastics move that all of you have been doing as kids. The only difference is that you probably didn’t do the full version when you don’t support your back with the hands. Mastering this position will help you build up strength and work on your balance, because without the hands holding your back it takes a little bit of practice to lie on your shoulders, with your legs straight in the air. Maybe it doesn’t look that difficult at the first sight, but anyone who tried it, knows it takes a bit of practice. Nevertheless, it is definitely one of the super easy gymnastics skills, that are being taught first.
