Answer 1

Steps
Find a reputable gymnastics school and/or instructor. Interview current students, and ask them 'How is it here?' or 'How do you like this trainer?'

Build your leg muscles and jumping ability. At the basis of your back handspring is your ability to jump back far and high. You can practice this by standing right in front of plushy mats that are about 2-3 feet high, and seeing how far back you can jump.
Start in a standing position with your feet together and your knees together.
Lean back in an off-balance position. You should move your arms back behind you.
Spring off the floor with a strong push from your legs and feet.
Swing your arms upward over your head.
Straighten your legs and lift your hips up.
Let your legs drive you upward and backward. Make sure you keep your head back between your arms while you start to reach for the floor.
Keep your body arched as your hands touch the floor or the mat, with your legs and lower body still following.
From the arched position, swing your legs and feet over and snap them down firmly toward the floor. Keep your upper body straight.
Let your knees and ankles flex as your feet touch the floor.
Stand up straight to finish.

Tips
Try doing a back handspring in slow motion first. Bend back into a bridge, and kick your legs over. If it's too difficult, start by putting your feet on a raised surface when you're in the bridge - it'll make it easier to kick over. Repeat until successful.
Add power to your back handspring by getting a running head start and doing a round-off first.
Keep your arms locked to prevent falling on your head.
Attempt only with a person you trust to catch you if your hands don't keep your head from hitting the floor.
When you're letting your legs drive you upward and backward, point your toes and extend your through your ankles. When you're going backwards, start to look for a landing spot on the mat.
When you land on your hands, spread your fingers a little, keep your feet together and don't let your knees bend.

Warnings
Without the guidance of a professional instructor, attempting a back handspring can result in serious injury, possibly even breaking your neck. Don't do back handsprings by yourself until your trainer or coach says you're ready.

Answer 2

you could lay on you bed on you back with you hands on the floor almost in a backbend then both legs at the same time flip them ovr. but if you are going to just try it... HAVE A SPOT! dont kill yourself!

Answer 3

regularly bounce top and swing your hands up for vigor. be certain your hands are locked and dont bend whilst you hit the bottom. earlier than you do it on my own be certain a gymnastics instructor or grownup tells you that you'll be able to. oh yeah, and while you get it at the trampoline, it's going to take approximately one million-two months to get it at the flooring. well success!
