gymnastic skills
Flips and balances
Gymnastic skills are the physical abilities required for gymnastics—balance, flexibility, strength, coordination, and spatial awareness.
The phrase often appears in contexts beyond the sport: The role demands gymnastic skills with language.
Someone with gymnastic skills can perform athletic feats involving tumbling, vaulting, or acrobatic movement.
