      Can you learn real life skills in an ld? (i.e. backflip)

      One lucid dream I had i tried a few backflips, a skill that's always eluded me. I messed up the first couple tries like i would in real life, then i noticed two things about my movement that i corrected and then i landed one in the ld. I want to do a few more in lds then try one in real life to see if it's transferable but i'm slightly scared i'll break my neck Has anyone genuinely learnt a skill in an ld then used it in real life successfully?

      Wow! good...
      but please be careful! you may want to try that more in your LD and then correct it in physical world with help of a master in that field.

      I think if you practice a back flip correctly in waking life with an instructor you could definitely perfect it in LDs, but because it would take consistent practice you would need to get LDs fairly often.

      People already do visualisation training for martial arts and such, LDs take that up to 11.

      The gravity in dream is often a bit.. off, so to speak. But I managed to do some kind of 360 backflip a few nights ago. But I did also have a keyboard in my left sleeve, that somehow could manipulate gravity even more in the dream, so I must admit that I cheated a bit there aswell. So keep practice those backflips and try it out in real life in some safe place where you dont have to risk to break your neck! And most important of all.. Dont cheat with a magic keyboard like I did.

      I would say, practicing movement in lucid dreams (or non lucid dreams alike) will train your brain to make the right movements. However, your muscles are not strengthening. A back flip requires strength. Martial arts require straight. Therefore, it is always necessary to learn and practice in real life. Dreams can help your brain with the fluidity and feeling like it is innate (you don't even need to think about it anymore).
