Just keep doing what your coach says you are doing right, until you are comfortable with it. Repitition is the key..just keep doing it until yuo have done it so much, that its as easy as breathing. Thats the only way to get rid of your fears!

First practice the back-bend on two legs, and then lift your foot up a little more each time so you can bend back. Then when your hands are on the floor push off with your leg on the ground so you are in handstand splits on whichever leg, it doesn't matter. Then try and lean forward a little so you can come down and you have then done it!\nTake care xxx.

If you're afraid of other peoples' blades, try going a rink where there are few or no other people around (different times of the day, or different days of the week are less busy than others). If you have the money, rent out the whole thing all for yourself :P As for being afraid of falling - there's nothing you can do about that except skate anyway. You may fall, you may not... where padded clothing to soften any falls that may occur... and just go for it!

first off how old are you? and the answer is always going to be if you feel ready to do something then go for it never force yourself to do something that makes you feel uncomfortable!

You need to want it more than anyone...\n\nGet up and practice when everyone is sleeping...\n\nLift weights, run sprints, practice your free throws, focus mainly on your hamstrings and calves when you work out...\n\nPractice taking off for your leaps with your strong foot...\n\nIE explode to the hoop...Make your strongest step your last step, you will get it soon enough...I never thought I would, but it happens...\n\nPractice while you are young enough. Time flies, and then you can't play anymore...keep your head up, do your best. its worth it.

Practice your foreward outside three turn and hold the ending with you leg extended behind you. After you are able to hold your check on the three turn you can start to worry about the jump. Holding your check is the hardest part of this jump. Also remember not to lift your hip. Keep them level while you are going foreward and backward. You should not be swinging around.

I know that its not going to be easy to go back into the water,especially after two previous incidents, but whether your talking about the ocean or a pool water can be one of the most fun things. I know this is going to sound a little childish but start out with a small kiddy pool. If that's no problem try going to a local public swimming pool, tell the lifeguard that you would like them to keep an eye on you while you simple go in the shallow end of the pool, hopefully just knowing that the lifeguard is right there will make you a little more comfortable and you'll be able to conquer the fear slowly but surely. No need to rush yourself, if you do that you may scare yourself even more so and never even want to swim again.\n\nI wish the best to you, and hope you'll be swimming soon. And remember just to try and enjoy yourself, And take a friend.  \n\nE-Mail me if..... When you start swimming again. \n\nCareful out there.\n\nBrock B.\nz7425472@yahoo.com

By accepting that you're there and that there is nothing you can do about it. It looks bad when you try to get rid of the nervousness. It looks like you're trying to hide something. If you're nervous, be nervous. It's ok.\n\nGood luck.

Been in your position - I had the same problem with being a cheerleader.  The only thing I could do to cure my fear was face it.  (And ask for certain people who I was comfortable with to be the catchers)  I started trying to do different activities that would cause me to be in the air, like flying.  I went to the tallest stories of buildings (The Arch in St. Louis, Mo.  Anything that would help.  Now, I'm 26, and although I still have some reservations about heights, I do okay for the most part.  Confronting your fear is the hardest step - once you start to do that you'll be fine.

frst thing you got to do is to adjust your seat post to the lowest positon, so that your feet touches the ground,so that you wouldn't be afraid to fall. then ask someone to hold the bike and guide you then gradually letting go without you knowing it.then try it again and again until you learn...

try going out on the limb more often and purposely put yourself into situations in which you are not comfortable, that way you will practice and with time you will learn to it right. The only way is practice dude! In everything. good luck

I know that these take along time, I took longer on these than I did things like back handsprings and back tucks! Back bend kick overs are one of the most important things to know in gymnastics.\nMake sure you have a"spotter" to arch your back correctly and so you don't fall.\nGet in your back bend.\nStart to rock a little bit, that warms up your muscles. \nPush off the ground with the foot you AREN'T kicking over, have your spotter support the leg and help push it over.\nYou need strong arms and back to be able to do a back bend kick over, not so much with the legs. \nGood luck.

I've had a trampoline since I was a young child.\n\nBackflips are only difficult because it's not the direction you're looking and it's scary.\n\nIt's physically easier to do a backflip than it is a front flip.\n\nGet used to going backward (on a trampoline) by doing back drops.  \n\nIt's counterintuitive, but be sure your head remains level with your body and let your head meet the mat at the same time as your body.  If you try to hold your head away from the mat, it will whip down to the mat due to its weight and momentum.\n\nOnce you have gone feet to back successfully a few times, give yourself plenty of room behind you and let your legs to over your head when you back drop, and they will carry you the rest of the way over to a crawl position.  Then try to start landing flat on your front after going back from the back drop.  \n\nWhen you get used to the feeling of going backward, skip the step where you land on your back, and go all the way from feet, backwards onto your tummy.  This will automatically set you onto your feet afterward.\n\nWhen this is no longer scary, get some height and go all the way over onto your feet.\n\nYou won't believe how natural it feels, and how much easier it is than a front flip from feet to feet.\n.
