Skill:  Double unders Key points when learning double unders

1. feet stay together
2. stay relaxed, spin the rope with the wrists
3. shoulder blades back
4. find a focal point
5. mid-line stability
6. stay on the toes- find your balance position and be able to spring back up like a pogo stick

To work on hand- jump coordination do the Penguin Drill:  no rope, just do tap the thighs with hands and jump in rhythm for double unders- 2 taps per jump.

To work on rope control- try single unders and vary speed.  Try this with eyes closed.

To work on rhythm- try counting the cadence out loud.  Do 10 single unders and then a quick 1-2 pause for a double under.
