This series will deal with a number of short exercises that will help the student develop awareness and alignment when jumping. It must be done in combination with the strength exercises to have maximum benefit.
Please commence this exercise only after doing hip openers, warming up your ankles, and doing some balance work with the standing and lifted leg turned out.
If your knees do not go out, and if you are unable to hold the standing leg straight when lifting the other leg, you must do more hip opening and hip flexor, exercises alongside gluteal strength, and balance work.
Please do not do the jumps if you experience knee pain.
You must be warmed up before doing any jumps.
