Skill:
Cadency
Drill:
Propeller
Equipment needed:
Bo / Student
Instructors needed:
Several to coach
Description:
The students will challenge their CADENCY within their bo manipulations.
Step 1
Divide your class into even lines.
Step 2 – Explain the Rules:
The 1st person in each line will race to get in as many reps of the propeller spin as they can within 60 seconds.
Reps count as the second hand touches the bo (touch/touch).
If you drop, you can pick your bo up and restart, but your count begins back from 1.
At the end of time, the student with the most consecutive reps will be the winner.
Step 3 – Takeaways:
Grab appropriately (thumb down/thumb & index), this is not a hand roll.
Grab off center to keep the bo balanced.
Rely on feel, not sight.
Step 4
Continue for at least 2 rounds.
