Goal: Rope skipping for 20 minutes non-stop

During this session for complete beginners, you'll learn in 25 minutes the basic techniques to perform standing jumps with feet joined together. You'll learn to get the pace and the coordination right.
The goal is to progressively jump less and less higher, so jump height just clears the rope underfoot (fine-tuning technique and energy during movement).

Remember to jump on the balls of your feet, knees slightly bent, with a long straight back.
The jumps might be big (high) to start off with, and therefore very energy sapping, which is normal when you are learning.
What's important during the session is how long you work at it, rather than focusing on mistakes
