No deadlifting lessons. If you're looking to do cartwheel to split grip Ayesha thats the cartwheel lesson..or handspring would work too. Same concept just ending in Straddle instead of straight legs.
Ok thanks. Just looking to start getting used to the hand positions and build strength at this point. Still need a more solid butterfly.
When you have a solid caterpiller/butterfly you can start working the "Inverted D" I don't know if Veena has a lesson for that one but Aerial Amy just put up a blog about split grip aysha that includes it. From there you can move to an extended butterfly. Once that is solid you can try Veena's "half cartwheel" or "half handspring". It's a good place to start handspringing from and does not require an Aysha! Before doing full cartwheels or handsprings it is necessary to have a solid Aysha. To gain the dead lift you can work on the negatives, that is lowering as slow as possible with control to the floor. Then try lowering part way down and come back up. It only gets closer from there. ☺
