Teaching SKILLZ:
UP THE REP – While doing this drill, the first turn can be slow and sloppy, and as they work their way up get faster and have better technique; five should be as fast as the student can go with good technique on their kicks.
Brain SKILLZ:
SPEED OF PROCESSING – The student must be able to have the correct footwork and execute it swiftly while doing their kicks.
Step 1

Step 2 – Setting Up the Drill:
Base the lines off of how many instructors you have.
Step 3 – Explain the Rules:

After they are off the kicking shield, they will throw 2 front kicks hitting the clapper pad over the kicking shield.
Each student will get to do this 5 times during their turn.
