Jump Rope Instructions

  • This is a rhythmic, athletic motion. There is nothing stiff about jumping rope. 
  • Always remain on the balls of your feet.
  • Jumping rope is about developing a consistent tempo.
  • Keep your shoulders loose and legs light.
  • Your wrists and hands remain fluid. You are never actively 'gripping' the handles.

*Tips*

  • Once proficient, begin incorporating single leg variations.
  • Slow is smooth. And smooth is fast.
