You can kind of try reorienting yourself in mid air by just using climbing gear. Have someone else hang you up on a rope (eg when falling off a wall in a climbing gym). Once you're in mid-air, you can try to make yourself spin (change your yaw) in mid air, the rope won't help you with that.
If you manage, you won't look elegant doing it.
