Mighty Ike Skippers Jump Rope Team

This class is designed for jumpers who are a little more serious about jump rope and are looking to learn harder tricks, put together routines and perhaps compete. Participants will go beyond the trick levels of the Wednesday morning jump rope club.  They will get more individualized instruction in single rope, Double Dutch and Chinese Wheel skills, as well as learn about the competitive events of jump rope.   (Please note a fee is required to rent the gym, cover insurance costs, and pay advanced instructors.  The goal is 1 instructor for 10 jumpers.)
