* Learn the butterfly kick at first. The butterfly twist is the most difficult wushu jump, so you should be able to perform all the other jumps before you try it.
* Jump into a long jump sand pit at first. Mats should be your second choice.
* A butterfly twist exercise: Stand about 3 meters from the sand pit on your right leg. (The sand pit in your back) Hop backwards (towards the sand pit) and strike out with your left leg. swing your arms from the right side and finally jump from your left leg !!! see butterfly run up !!! Jump forward into the pit and, close your legs and land on your belly in the pit. Forearms close to the torso to dampen the fall. Make sure the sand pit is soft enough after every intent. ( dig soft ) Then try to land on your side and start twisting until you can land the butterfly twist. Before your first try you will be afraid of falling on the edge of the sand pit.
