Coaching cues
- Sit tall; legs crossed; roll back — take legs overhead like in Rollover
- Switch the leg cross in the air; roll back up and balance in the Teaser
- Reach the arms back; circle them forward to clasp the feet
- A complex advanced movement combining Teaser, Rollover, and balance
Common faults 2
Cannot maintain the Teaser balance after rolling up
Core strength and hip flexor control are insufficient; build the Teaser separately first.
