Complete training on the hurdle on floor.

How to teach this movement that is essential for all tumbling passes on floor.

The hurdle takes gymnasts from a run-up into a forward lunge for a handspring or a round-off. It is absolutely essential, and the rest of the tumbling pass will depend on how well this hurdle is executed.

In this tutorial, we'll be looking at 3 analyses of technique for the hurdle:

  • hurdle from standing
  • 3 steps into hurdle
  • hurdle after a run-up of more than 3 steps

In the second section, we'll go through the essential prerequisites for tackling the hurdle, followed by a complete teaching analysis.

To help you to teach this hurdle to your gymnasts, we've taken the time to break down each learning stage.

Enjoy the training!
