What are tips for arching your back when doing a back handspring?

Question

I'm a high school cheerleader and I've been attempting my back-handspring with a spotter, but my coach keeps telling me I need to arch my back. I've been working on this for a while, but for the life of me, I cannot get it!

Any suggestions?
