Learn to Vault Like a Superhero
If you want to feel like a superhero flying over tiny “walls,” you need to learn how to vault safely. This skill can be both fun and rewarding, allowing you to overcome small obstacles with ease.
Steps to Vaulting
Step 1: Start with a tiny thing to vault over, like a chalk line or a short stick on the ground. Stand a few steps back, look at the line, and practice a small jump so your feet both go over it without touching.
Step 2: When that feels easy, try to vault over something a little higher, like a soft pillow or rolled-up blanket. You should bend your knees, swing your arms, and land with your knees still bent so you stay balanced and don’t tip over.
If you keep practicing your vaulting like this, you’ll be able to glide over your little “obstacles” and feel like the fastest jumper on your block.
