Description:
The students will spin in a circle three times and then kick the pad.
Teaching SKILLZ:
HEALTHY COMPETITION – Make it a race to see which student will finish the fastest. Giving the teams silly names can also motivate the students to win as a team.
Brain SKILLZ:
RESPONSE INHIBITION – The student must be able to find the pad and kick it without acting silly or falling, despite being dizzy.
Step 1
Divide your students into even lines.
Step 2 – Setting Up the Drill:
Line the students up on one end of the mat.
Step 3 – Explain the Rules:
On the other end, have an instructor hold a kicking target for each line.
You will race down the mat to the instructor.
You will spin around three times.
You will kick the target four times using both legs.
Then you will race back to the end of the line.
Continue until each student has a turn.
You can make it fun by making it a race to see which line is the fastest.
Step 4 – Takeaways:
Learn to focus while being dizzy
Step 5
You can make it even more challenging by placing a ring on the ground and having them spin within the ring.
