Kip-up

It is used in activities such as breakdancing, acro dance, gymnastics,[2] martial arts (specifically kung fu), professional wrestling, and freerunning, and in action film fight sequences.

The performer draws both legs (which may be either in extension or flexion) anterior to the chest, rotates back onto the shoulders, and optionally places hands on the floor proximal to the ears.

The spine moves into greater lordosis so that with sufficient thrust, back curvature, and body rotation, the performer will land on the feet.

[4] Hop back variations all involve the practitioner starting in a standing position, possibly jumping in the air and rotating posterior in order to land on their shoulders/back.

After maintaining the supine position the practitioner executes the standard kip up variation in order to return to their feet.
