Below is a video of a routine. It has all the moves I have learnt over the course. I have not posted individual videos of each move as I just chose to focus on two spins and to show you my improvement. 

Reflection:

Before I did the routine I went over all the moves that we had learnt over the course. I knew that I was quite confident in my ability however there were others that I wasn't so confident with. The back hook spin and the fireman's spin were two moves that I felt confident doing and the front hook spin was one where I wasn't. When I did the front hook spin I found it hard to get momentum when spinning therefore I was quite ridged and I spun to the ground pretty quickly.   I had not run through the routine before it got recorded which is why there are some small timing issues. 

Overall I felt like I have improved from the first week. I gained more confidence which helped me to try and get more involved.
