Guling Depan & Belakang - Senam Lantai

Summary

This instructional video teaches the basic techniques for performing forward and backward rolls. The forward roll (guling depan) begins with a crouching position, where the hands are placed firmly on the mat to guide the body forward, using the shoulders and back as supports. The backward roll (guling belakang) involves a crouch, with hands raised above the head, and the body rolls backward, using the arms and hands to push and lift the body. Both techniques emphasize balance, body control, and proper hand placement to ensure smooth and safe execution of the movements.
