Key Teaching Points:

  1. 1. Engage the core before initiating any movement.
  2. 2. Avoid compensation patterns; if form breaks, address the limiting factor.
  3. 3. Arms pump in opposition to legs for balance and rhythm.
  4. 4. Stay on the balls of your feet; never land flat-footed during fast footwork.

Regression:

Reduce pace to a walk or march. Remove the jump or hop until mechanics are solid.

Progression:

Increase duration before increasing intensity — build capacity before building power.

Common Problems:

Flat-foot landing — cue ball-of-foot contact first to reduce impact force.
