Shadowing Practice: Trying Every Level of Gymnastics! - Learn English Speaking with Video
Les maken...
1
Gymnastics is one of the most difficult sports in the world.
2
Going from the easiest skills at level 1 to the most impossible skills at level 10.
3
Me and my friends will be attempting skills from every level of gymnastics to find out who is the best gymnast.
4
If we can successfully complete the skill, we get a point.
5
The person with the most points at the end of the competition will get to give the losers a punishment.
6
For every level, each of you will be randomly picking an event you will perform your skill at.
7
Everybody grab a card.
8
Bull.
9
Bull!
10
This is my least favorite event.
11
Bull!
12
That leaves like the worst two for us.
13
No!
14
No!
15
No!
16
Hopefully you don't split the beam.
17
For level one vault, you'll have to jump onto the vault,
18
do a handstand, and fall back onto your back.
19
All right, y'all all stand there and take some notes.
20
That was a good level one.
21
What's up with that backhanded comment, Drew?
22
We'll see if you can do level one on the beam.
23
Drew, unfortunately you got beam,
24
and I'm feeling like seeing an arabesque,
25
as long as you can hold it.
26
Jesus.
27
All right.
28
How was that, Josh?
29
Toes were pointed.
30
He completed it.
31
Brittany, your level one skill is a pullover.
32
Oh, easy.
33
All right.
34
Yes.
35
Wow, that was so good.
36
I made her like her band.
37
Don't talk about my friend like that.
38
Natalia, your level one skill is a cartwheel.
39
Oh, okay, that's good.
40
That was perfect.
41
You all successfully completed level one.
42
Let's go to level two.
43
Take your pick.
44
Come on first.
45
Bean.
46

51
wow britney your level two trick is a bridge kickover easy i could do that up.
52
I don't think I could have done that if that was just level two.
53
Drew, your level two trick is a front handspring over the ball to your back.
54
Okay.
55
All right, Drew, let's see this.
56
You got this.
57
It's going to definitely be better in whatever she does.
58
That was amazing.
59
That was perfect technique, but we still have to see Jack.
60
Don't mess up, Jack.
61
I'm going to start it like that.
62
All right, let's do this.
63
I want to see a back hip circle.
64
What?
65
Back hip circle.
66
Alright, here we go.
67
I haven't done this since a while.
68
No!
69
Oh, gross!
70
My bad girl got caught in the bar.
71
Does that count?
72
Yes, that counts.
73
Moving on to level three,
74
and things are about to get a lot harder.
75
Fultz, no!
76
I hope I get bars.
77
Oh!
78
Go in there.
79
That was supposed to be mine, Natalia.
80
That means one of us has been.
81
What?
82
Yes!
83
Let's go!
84
Jack, your next vault trick is a front handspring onto a raised surface.
85
Okay, I think I can do this one.
86
I need some running work.
87
The ending was a little interesting,
88
but I'll let it pass.
89
Can I go next?
90
Yes, go!
91
Your next trick is a front hip circle.
92
Sweet, I can do it.
93
Oh!
94
I'm sorry, but that was not what I wanted.
95
No, that's rigged.
96
You passed Jack.
97
We're not talking about me right now we're talking about george washington whatever
98
that fun thing is in your head i want to see a handstand on the beam
99
but you have to land back down on the beam also
100
i can't fall off no you're gonna lose a point just
101
like i did one no yeah i think the same
102
that didn't count brittany i want to see a round off Back handspring.
103
Easy.
104
Oh my gosh.
105
I don't have to get this move.
106
Good job, Jack and Bray.
107
You guys completed level three.
108
Let's move on to level four.
109
Pick your revenge.
110
I only want floor.
111
That's my favorite event.
112
All right, I'll go first.
113
I got floor.
114
Oh!
115
Brr.
116
Dude.
117

118
Oh!
119
Oh, no, no, no, no, no. Oh!
120
Oh!
121
Oh!
122
No. Jack, for your beam trick,
123
I want to see a cartwheel.
124
The levels are getting harder,
125
but for me they're getting easier.
126
Watch out.
127
Alright, Ohio!
128
Yeah!
129
I was just trying to give y'all a hug at the end because I love y'all so much.
130
That was the sweatiest hug I've ever felt in my life.
131
Good thing we're not getting scored on dryness of back.
132
Um, Jack, I think you need a shower and that does not count at all.
133
I'm gonna go wash my hands.
134
Drew, for your floor trick,
135
I want to see a back walkover back against mine.
136
And I want a pretty.
137
You really gotta break your back here,
138
Drew, so that we're like not in this punishment together.
139
Oh!
140
Oh!
141
That does not pass.
142
Brittany, your vault is a front handspring onto flat mat.
143
I'm really nervous.
144
I've done a front handspring before,
145
but I've only landed in a pin.
146
Natalia, for your bar trick,
147
I want to see a tip.
148
Okay, I actually just got this in one of Britt's other videos.
149
That was the first time I did it.
150
Well, this is the second time you have to do it,
151
so let's see it.
152
What about mine mine was a little sloppy you didn't give it to me
153
that wasn't even the trick that I asked for that slide Fair take your pick
154
I'm on bars something I haven't done yet.
155
Yes, that means I got four and that's my favorite event work sugar Jack,
156
for your level five skill,
157
I want to see you stick a front tuck.
158
You know what?
159
Not only can I do that,
160
but I have an even better idea.
161
All of you lay down shoulder to shoulder like sardines.
162
Everyone down.
163
I don't like me.
164
Oh!
165
No!
166
What?
167
He's stalking?
168
My feet did not move.
169
I'm just going to stay down here and accept the fact that I'm probably not going to be able to top that.
170
Do you guys want me to do it over you?
171
Nope, I'm getting up.
172
That's some positive signs from my competitors,
173
so let's see what the judge says.
174
That was good.
175
Let's see who's next.
176
Wait, you didn't score it.
177
Brittany, since you love Vol so much,
178
I want to see you do a runoff over it.
179
I am terrified.
180
Where are you?
181
Runoff!
182
Oh!
183
What?
184
The landing is a little bit wobbly,
185
but I'm going to let it pass.
186
Let's go!
187
Can I do a beam back?
188
For your beam trick, I want you to do a split jump.
189
Pretty, okay.
190
Oh, cool.
191
Wait, where was the split?
192
I saw it from that angle.
193
That works.
194
I'm just glad to not have to do this.
195
Drew, your level five skill is a flyaway.
196
I feel like my eardrum burst.
197
You know?
198
I would have liked some, you know.
199
That was almost textbook.
200
Almost.
201
You all surprisingly survived level five,
202
which means you're halfway through the competition,
203
and things are about to get a lot harder.
204
Choose your...
205
Okay.
206
Oh!
207
Bars again!
208
He is like the master of bars,
209
and I'm the master at...
210
The theme!
211
Oh!
212
Floor!
213
Oh!
214
Vault.
215
That's what it says.
216
Natalia, you're gonna be doing a round-off,
217
but you have to stick the landing.
218
Come on!
219
Stick the landing!
220
That was pretty good.
221
I'll count it.
222
What?
223
Jack, for your beam trick,
224
I want to see a backhand spring.
225
Wait, I could split the beam.
226
This is literally a girl's event.
227
Well, if you do it,
228
then you can't split the beam.
229
I am so scared for him.
230
Oh, gosh!
231
That was a good attempt,
232
but it wasn't good enough.
233
What?
234
I literally tried it.
235
You didn't land it.
236
Welcome to the two-point club, Jack.
237
I don't know anymore.
238
Brittany, for your floor trick,
239
I want to see a round off back hands for Galeo.
240
Galeo, you feel me nervous because she's going against two of the best in the game.
241
Let's go Britt.
242
Oh my god!
243
Drew, your next trick is a tip to handstand.
244
Oh wow.
245
No offense, Rob.
246
I know you're really good,
247
but these bar skills are getting harder and harder.
248
Let's go Drew!
249
Oh my gosh!
250
That was crazy feeling out of there.
251
Ow!
252
Alright, I was excited.
253
Kevin, pick your events.
254
Lee.
255
Oh boy.
256
Bars.
257
Oh my gosh.
258
You have to do something harder than what he did.
259
Four.
260
You'll be okay.
261
Lee.
262
Yeah.
263
I got balls.
264
Wow.
265
Feel bad for anyone that has to do beam.
266
Good luck.
267
Brittany, you're going to be doing a fly away full.
268
I thought you were just going to say fly away,
269
and I was already scared about that.
270
No, no, no. You have to do a whole 360 full.
271
Yep.
272
That was crazy.
273
Oh!
274
Unfortunately, you didn't do the full spin,
275
so you won't get the point.
276
Jack, I want to see a tuck on the beam.
277
Oh my god.
278
Ah!
279
Oh no!
280
That does not count.
281
He did not land that.
282
Drew, you're up next.
283
I want to see a Tsukahara.
284
That's a Tsukahara.
285
Ah!
286
Not that hard.
287
I've seen it a million times.
288
I'll try.
289
Your chest is down.
290
I'll take it.
291
All right, Natalia, I want to see a front handspring front tuck.
292
Good luck!
293
You didn't even let me finish.
294
You'll see something.
295
Good luck!
296
That was terrible!
297
You're joining the tooth club.
298
Thanks.
299
Too bad that you didn't land that.
300
Level 8, let's see what events you get.
301
This is getting so hard.
302
Bars.
303
What?
304
Both?
305
Yes!
306
Four!
307
Yes!
308
That means I got the beam.
309
Brittany, I want to see you do a back ball.
310
Thank God, that was doable.
311
Whoa.
312
You can definitely do it.
313
Let's go.
314
Jack, you have to do a double front off the ball.
315
A double what?
316
Double front.
317
If he does this, I'm going to be mind blown.
318
Thank you.
319
That was the best skill I've ever seen in my life.
320
That was wild.
321
That was pretty impressive, but honestly,
322
I like to see things stuck.
323
And that was not even landed.
324
Natalia, I want to see a branny dismount.
325
Have you done this before?
326
I did as a child.
327
That's a fail.
328
She doesn't get a point.
329
Let's see a double fly away.
330
Alright.
331
Oh my gosh!
332
I barely got that!
333
Yo, it was crazy!
334
Level 9, pick your events.
335
Oh boy.
336
Vault again, yo!
337
You got four!
338
Ah!
339
So we know what you got!
340
No!
341
The beans.
342
God help me.
343
We meet again at the vault.
344
We do and I would like to see a scoop full this time.
345
I've literally never done that before.
346
Perhaps slam it.
347
Oh!
348
Actually insane.
349
The landing was a little wobbly but all that happened.
350
All right Drew we're on the beam and I want to see a gator full dismount.
351
Yo, I don't know if I can do that.
352
You act like it's hard.
353
You do it.
354
All right let's not get crazy.
355
That was perfect.
356
How did I even get around?
357
That was like totally blind.
358
That was pretty good.
359
I'll give him the point.
360
Thank you.
361
All right, pretty girl.
362
I want to see a devil.
363
Hey.
364
What?
365
I need you to do this devil full and be mean.
366
We don't look anything alike.
367
What are you doing?
368
Ow.
369
Ow.
370
Stop.
371
You owe me a prime.
372
Did Natalia do something different with her hair?
373
Yeah, she got bigger.
374
Yeah, I'd agree.
375
Natalia?
376
No. Jack.
377
Go, Natalia.
378
Go.
379
Yes.
380
Yay.
381
Oh, wait.
382
It's Jack.
383
Wait, it's Jack.
384
No, it's me.
385
Honey, you looked a little different in that flip.
386
I'm sorry, but you definitely don't get a point.
387
All right, I want to see a double full flyaway from you.
388
Are you joking?
389
I just couldn't even do the full flyaway.
390
Do I look like I'm joking?
391
Let's go, Brittany.
392
This is your chance to redeem yourself.
393
We've got it.
394
Brittany, that was super close, but I'm sorry.
395
You didn't get the point.
396
That's okay.
397
I'm still in the lead.
398
Last and final challenge.
399
Pick your events.
400
Oh, gosh.
401
Bars.
402
That's going to be hard.
403
You know what's going to be hard?
404
Balls.
405
Good luck topping Jack's.
406
Oh, beam!
407
I guess I got four.
408
Let's go!
409
Jack, your final trick is a triple pull.
410
I've never even attempted this skill in my life,
411
but I know it's hard.
412
Yeah, I would never attempt this.
413
Oh, that was sick!
414
That was sick.
415
Wow, way to end of the thing.
416
Yes!
417
Natalia, your next trick is a souk da bat.
418
I'm gonna need a few pointers from maybe Jack.
419
No advice because you ain't going to do it once or twice.
420
Now that's just rude.
421
I think she's got it easy.
422
Sorry, Natalia, but that doesn't count.
423
You forgot the second flip.
424
Are you kidding me?
425
Drew and Britt, you guys are currently tied.
426
If one of you messes up here,
427
the other one will win.
428
Okay, what's my skill?
429
Standing double full dismount.
430
Are you crazy?
431
I think you got it.
432
Oh.
433
I can't believe I just did that.
434
Britt, that was so good.
435
I give you the point.
436
All right, Drew, your last trick is a full-in.
437
I really need to get this trick.
438
I do not want Britt to win.
439
I'm going to give it my all.
440
All right.
441
I really hope he doesn't make it so I can win.
442
That means I won.
443
Let's go.
444
Are you OK?
445
That hurt so bad.
446
It's time for you guys to do your punishment.
447
Have a good one in mind.
448
I won.
449
Here's your punishment.
450
You guys are going to have to stay here for one hour.
451
See you guys later.
452
My face is turning red.
453
I'm slipping.
454
Don't you fall.
455
Oh, God.
456
Please help.
457
Please help.
458
It's all.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
