Butterfly twist
This move goes with taking few steps forward then turning and jumping off one foot just as you would do for a butterfly kick..
Here, the move is executed once the supporting foot has left the ground, turning your head towards the side you spin with, at this time,horizontal position in the air is initiated.. The head is not allowed to remain focused on the ground. This helps to initiate the horizontal motion.
Aerial twist
The same approach as you would do for your aerial . its important to learn and master aerial before learning this move..
Once the aerial is initiated,, the head is kept focused on the ground while twisting the upper body.. That's aerial twist... Your head is not raised up to twist but remains focused on the ground and twisting the hips..
In butterfly twist, you twist with your head turning to your shoulder.
In aerial twist ,you only have to twist with your hip while the head is focused on the ground..
That's it!!
If you can learn any of the related move,, you can learn the other with ease.
It is recommended to learn the aerial twist first ,,then when practicing for the butterfly twist, you just have to change your twist angle by raising your head up while twisting.
