5 We start by standing on a a a a a a a a a mat then simulate a a a a a a a a a twist using the the the same initial technique as exercise #4 Now to turn we could ignore the the the the “crossing the the the leading (outside) leg leg behind the the the trailing (in- side) side) leg” technique explained above (#10) This time we we can cross the the the inside leg leg in in in front of the the the outside one as as we we reach the the the the the horizontal plane since this is is is the the the easiest way to start the the the rotation while standing on on on a a a a a a a a a a mat (For a a a a a a a a a a left sided twist the the rope should be placed on on the the right side side and and vice versa) (img 1 - 4)
6 We perform two or or three beats on on on the the the rope and and right after the the the the last one we land on on on on the the the the mat with the the the the body in in a a a a a a a a a plank position We shouldn’t climb high just enough to clear the the the the mat during the the the the beats beats Doing these beats beats before landing will will help us us to maintain the the the correct body line and and will will also make us us work on explosiveness 7 We perform perform two or or or three beats on on the the the the rope then right after the the the the the the last one we perform perform the the the the the the twist/pirouette and fall on on on the the the the the mat with the the the the the body in in a a a a a a a a plank position We shouldn’t climb high just enough to clear the the mat during the the beats We only recommend performing the the twist/pirouette high up once we we have improving and and correctly memorizing the the body line as as well as as each technical component and and movement pattern correctly We ALWAYS recommend performing all the the preparatory drills and skills with the the proper crash mats CH 14 TWIST/PIROUETTE
