Is skipping a part of you workout in the gym or at Crossfit? Do you struggle to complete multiple Double Unders? If yes, why not take part in a double under workshop taught by a Level 2 qualified REP’s Skipping Instructor (Register of Exercise Professionals of Great Britain). 

We offer two types of workshops available – 1) Beginners and 2) Advanced. Each tutorial is 1 hour long.

Beginners

In our beginner course, I will introduce you to the basics of skipping. For many people skipping is an activity that they did as a child, starting to skip again as an adult can take a little long for some. The beginner course has been developed to give you a solid foundation in the basics so that you can easily move on to the more advanced. This course will focus on…

• Skipping Technique – Hand position, arm & wrist rotation.
• Posture – Body, leg and feet placement.
• Breathing – Underline the importance of breathing to the exercise.
• Rhythm – Emphasise the correlation of hand and feet rhythm.

The reason why we have developed the beginner course is because many adults come to us looking for tips on double unders, when we coach them we often find that the key basics of skipping are missing. With each of the above aspects of skipping mastered, we then move on to teach participants the basics of double unders for the last 15-20mins of our session.

Advanced

The advanced course would be suited for individuals who have all the basics of skipping but are struggling to get multiple double unders. Double unders are a key component of many workouts performed in gyms and Crossfit classes and competitions. The advanced course will focus on…

• Observing everyone’s technique.
• Focusing on posture.
• Making adjustments to help improve performance.
• Encourage the importance of speed skipping.
• Emphasising the significance of breathing.

From this workshop, participants will be equipped with the skills to perform multiple double unders through practice. We have worked with professional Crossfit athletes to improve their efficency as well as their technique. 

In 2019, we attended the Filthy150 event in Punchestown where we worked with numerous Crossfitters, both local and international, in our double under clinic. Look out for us at more events in 2020 including The Powerful Invitational.

Testimony

“After struggling to do 5 double unders for over a year, we decided to get Mark from skipnrope. We had him in for a 2 hour workshop with our members and he done a fantastic job of breaking down the skills needed that people of all levels could focus on. Double unders where something we were all really keen to be able to perform but Mark from gave us the tools to master the movement. I now can do 50 double unders unbroken” Gavin Brown, The Fitness Academy, Athboy, Co. Meath
