CURATOR'S NOTE

Tumbling is a high-energy gymnastics discipline focused on explosive acrobatic passes down a spring runway. Athletes combine sprinting, flipping, and twisting to execute skills like back handsprings, layouts, and double somersaults. Precision, power, and air awareness define the sport, which appears in cheerleading, circus arts, and Olympic competitions. Mastery demands fearless repetition and flawless biomechanics.
