What is the secret to bunny hopping?

[TigerMom]

Irulan is so kind to provide me front and rear wheel lift and bunny hopping techniques.

I did practice them.

My problem regarding the bunny hopping is....

How do I switch my backward lean in the front wheel lift to leaning forward for the rear wheel lift in a smooth quick motion (I feel like I am not able to switch my body positions quick enough)? Also, I feel like I'm going to fall forward over my handlebars when I lean forward for the rear wheel lift. Is that what it is supposed to feel like?

Practice. Practice. Practice. For me, getting confident, secure and strong in each movement individually before combining them was the key.

If you feel like you are falling forward, making sure your feet are strong in the pedals: keeping your weight below your hips; not leaning on the handlebars. I hope that makes sense. Hip position is one of the keys.
