Tumbling is the art of running around, falling down, and standing back up again, all the while listening to music. This artform is present in a multitude of species, not including monkeys though, because that would mean evolution is real, which it is not.

[edit] Tumbling 101
[edit] Who is Involved
- Must involve 3 or more people, 2 of which must be of a different sex.
[edit] What to Wear
- Coordinate matching outfits, complete with dazzling sequins and flamboyant colors. Be careful as to not make the colors too flamboyant, though, as it may attract the gays
- Slippers. Shoes are too bulgey and socks are too restricty. Slippers with traction on the foot are the best.
[edit] What Music to Choose
- American. All music must be made in America.
- Something catchy. The goal is to not get bored while aimlessly running around, and also letting your audience know that you are hip to the times.
[edit] What to Do
- Practice. Practice takes place in large cement tubes that spin like hamster wheels. This helps build balance and coordination, as well as bruises so it looks like you worked hard -- which you really didn't, because tumbling involves almost no skill.
- Organize. Move things around your stage area so you can access them more easily. If you are unorganized, where are you going to find a pen to start writing down your routine?
- Start doing something.
- Run around.
- Flail your arms like an eagle.
- Pick up one of your partners and toss them to the other.
- Fall over once or twice.
- It's art; if people don't understand what you're doing it's just because they cannot wrap their heads around such a ground-breaking artform.
- Stop doing something. Eventually it has to end. The best endings are usually abrupt, so run across the stage one last time and then fall down. It's over.
[edit] Where to Do it
- Stages
- Busy Streets
- Comfy Beds
