The purpose of this video is to demonstrate a step-by-step process for teaching kips, starting with absolute beginners and moving up to girls who are trying to compete level 5. It shows the drills and conditioning I have learned from successful and effective coaches.

This video is part I, which deals only with the conditioning that should be mastered at each stage before beginning the corresponding drills in parts II and III.

Thank you to everyone involved in this video. The specific credits appear at the end of the second video, but in general you all know who you are, and I thank you.

I do not own the rights to any of this music. If you do, please don't sue me.

  • A gymnast who is ready to learn a kip should already know what hand position to use. What the heck is that at the end??? Your thumbs are supposed to be on the same side as the rest of your hand

  • @AsianShorty123 That may be something your coach has told you, but that's a matter of preference and not a requirement.

  • great drills!..how many reps and sets do u recommend?

    thank u

  • @victoriamull I try not to teach in terms of a number. I don't want the girl to think she should do "10" of something if she does 10 poor ones just to get done. I want them instead to focus on the quality. If they are not on the station I am spotting, I tell them to get my attention and show me (call my name and ask me to watch). Then I tell them whether it's ready to move to the next step or not. Then we rotate stations after a few minutes so they eventually get everywhere several times.

  • im teaching myself how to do the kip/glide kip any advice i dont have a coach .

  • Try your best to do all these drills and conditioning exercises as best you can.

    Focusing more on Hip Flexor conditioning. I have the stomach muscles but I always tap the floor in the middle of my glide swing...not at the far end of my glide swing but right in the middle of it.
