also one thing that I have found useful in physical/aerial learning:
If you always tend to make the same mistake at one point (overkill, not far enough, too much/too little pressure), try making the opposite mistake a few times so as to stop reinforcing the wrong synaptic pathway, and create new ones that take you in the right direction by going too far. you may find it easier to find a happy middle.
I have applied this in
-juggling (i suck, but I can juggle three objects)
-acrobatics (very effective for handstands, less effective for flips and more dangerous manouvers, because I didn't trust my coach to catch me)
-trampoline
I wish to apply this and other learning techniques to:
-Rollerskating
-Skateboarding
It already started snowing though, last week, so now I will have to wait until may or june
