Hi! There are many ways to to help you spin, and I found that the most effective was spinning where your arms are doing the dagger motion. It causes your shoulders to twist so therefore moves your whole body! Just try not to elbow your bases!
**Edit: Try Practicing on a large bed, on a trampoline, or in a pool! Its 80 percent confidence, so If you build enough to believe you can do it, you probably can 🙂
