Building practical floor exercise skills through structured online learning

Building floor skills from the ground up

We started Belthraxis in 2019 with one clear idea: floor exercise deserves more than generic fitness routines. It needs dedicated instruction that breaks down tumbling passes, rhythm patterns, and spatial control into steps anyone can follow.

Our courses started in a converted community space in Zhytomyr. We had mats, mirrors, and instructors who'd spent years competing and coaching. The first cohort was twelve people learning back handsprings. Now we teach everything from basic rolls to connected acrobatic series online.

What keeps people coming back is the structure. Every skill has progression markers. Every mistake has a specific fix. And the platform lets you repeat sections until the movement clicks.

Where we began

Two former competitive gymnasts and a sports physiotherapist met in a Zhytomyr gym. They kept seeing people struggle with the same progression gaps in floor work. So they mapped out a better sequence and started teaching it.

What pushed us forward

Local classes filled fast. People wanted access after hours, wanted to review certain drills, wanted feedback on video submissions. That's when we built the platform. Now learners from across the region train on their schedule.

How we stay grounded

Every course update comes from tracking where students get stuck. We film new angles, add verbal cues, test progressions with real cohorts. The curriculum adapts based on what actually works on the mat.

Who teaches at Belthraxis

Our instructors competed at national levels, coached junior teams, and refined their teaching through hundreds of hours on the floor. They know what cues fix a specific balance issue and which drills prepare you for the next skill.

Ivanna Kravchuk

Lead Floor Exercise Instructor

Ivanna competed in artistic gymnastics for eight years before shifting to coaching. She specializes in connecting movement quality with spatial awareness. Her courses focus on clean technique and controlled landings.

She developed the beginner tumbling series after noticing how many adults skip fundamental body positions. Her breakdown of the back handspring is used across all our intro courses.

Dmytro Symonenko

Tumbling Specialist

Dmytro brings acrobatic training from competitive tumbling and power tumbling backgrounds. He handles the advanced courses: connected passes, aerial skills, twisting mechanics.

His drills for round-off entry and punch technique show up in multiple progressions. Students appreciate how he isolates timing issues before adding rotation.

How the teaching system works

Each course is built around skill trees. You start with foundation drills, test readiness through self-assessment checkpoints, then unlock the next progression. Video feedback keeps you aligned with proper mechanics.

We don't rush combinations. A back walkover stays isolated until your bridge hold, leg lift, and shoulder control meet specific benchmarks. Then you practice the full skill with coaching notes.

The platform tracks your reps, flags form issues based on common errors, and suggests supplementary drills. It's structured repetition with constant refinement.

What makes floor training effective

Floor exercise combines strength, flexibility, spatial control, and rhythm. Getting better requires targeted work in all four areas, not just repeating the same moves. Here's how we approach each component.

Breaking down complex skills

Every acrobatic element gets decomposed into prep drills, body positions, entry mechanics, and landing control. You practice each piece separately with video references showing correct form from multiple angles.

We use slow-motion breakdowns to highlight weight shifts, arm positions, and where your eyes should track. Common mistakes get their own correction modules so you can identify and fix errors early.

Progressive skill sequences

Courses start with conditioning specific to the skill family. Then intro drills, partial movements, full skill with assistance, full skill solo, and finally connected combinations.

You can't skip levels. The platform locks next modules until you complete assessment videos. This keeps progressions safe and ensures you have the physical prep before attempting advanced elements.

Video review and corrections

Submit practice videos through the platform. Instructors review within 48 hours and return timestamped notes highlighting what's working and what needs adjustment.

Feedback includes specific cues, drill recommendations, and sometimes annotated frames showing exact positioning issues. You get clear direction on what to work on before the next submission.
