In this video I read the CAA's Safety Sense Leaflet Number 19 - Aerobatics.

INTRODUCTION.
a) Aerobatics, whether in a glider or a powered aircraft, provide an opportunity for pilots to learn and participate in a new facet of sporting aviation.
It is, however, vital to keep safety in mind, since a reckless or careless attitude can result in serious injury or death.
Almost every year accidents occur where the height available proves insufficient to recover from an intentional or, more usually, a badly executed aerobatic manoeuvre.
b) The motivation to acquire aerobatic skills is usually a desire to experience the pleasure of being able to control the aircraft while precisely drawing a defined manoeuvre in the sky.
A side benefit is that it also adds to the pilot’s ability to cope with unusual attitudes and unexpected upsets, such as wake turbulence, in a safe manner.
c) Only a limited range of aircraft attitudes will have been encountered during a pilot’s training towards a private licence.
Learning aerobatics will extend the pilot’s knowledge of the aircraft’s performance envelope, while emphasising the need to co-ordinate use of the flying and engine controls to achieve the desired manoeuvre.
Continued in the video...
SUMMARY.
• Get dual instruction before attempting aerobatics.
• Check that the aircraft is cleared for aerobatics and know both the aircraft and your own limitations.
• Be proficient with recoveries from spinning and unusual attitudes.
• Start with sufficient height to give plenty of margin if things go wrong.
• Maintain a good look-out and monitor your height constantly.
• Do not exceed the ‘g’ limits, or use large control movements near or above maximum manoeuvring speed VA. Do not exceed VNE, the never exceed speed.
• Do not exceed maximum engine RPM or manifold pressure limitations.
• Ensure you know the escape route for each manoeuvre if it goes wrong – and use it when necessary.
• Never be tempted to show off with low aerobatics or beat-ups.
