Q

What is a Transverse plane?

A

A Transverse plane divides the body across the middle (horizontally) giving a top section (superior) and a bottom section (inferior) rotation.

Q

What characteristics are there of a forward somersault?

A

You move forward, left and right sides move in sync in the (sagittal plane). The body bends on a line that runs horizontally from side to side - around the frontal axis.

Q

What are the characteristics of a cartwheel?

A

Move sideways from right to left (vice versa) in the frontal plane. Body rotates around a line that runs from front to back of body around sagittal axis

Q

What are the characteristics of a trampoline twist?

A

Key movement is around one spot in the transverse plane. Twist around an invisible line that runs from head to toe around vertical axis
