WHERE TO FIND JUMP ROPE TUTORIALS?

For beginners, it can be hard to know where to start. There is so much to learn and it all seems so impressive and impossible at the same time. But rest assured, there is an easy way to get started if you’re new to jumping rope.

The Entry 20 is a free beginner course you can find on YouTube and on this website which is a progression-based approach to starting out with jump rope. It will take you through everything you need to know to develop good technique from day one as well as introduce all aspects of freestyle jump rope.

Once you’ve mastered everything in The Entry 20, you can dive into The Tricktionary. This huge catalogue of single-rope freestyle skills is documented in slow motion, organised by skill type. As you browse it, you can learn the different skill categories, and variations of skills you know, and read my coaching cues based on the biomechanics of each skill category. From leg crosses to mic releases to wraps there are over five hundred skills to discover, both forwards and backwards.

One of my missions as a professional jump rope coach is to make jump rope as accessible as possible which is why I believe no one should have to pay to start. These resources are free and will always be free.
