When engaging in activities that involve running jumps, it is emphasized that landing does not always need to be the primary focus. Maintaining momentum and fluidity in movement can sometimes take precedence over a precise landing. This is particularly relevant when tackling larger jumps or distances that may invoke a sense of fear, as concentrating solely on landing can hinder the overall experience and performance.
Building confidence in jumping over time is crucial, and one does not necessarily need to scale down the difficulty, height, or distance of a jump to gain that assurance. Instead, working through the fear of making the jump and ensuring a smooth execution can lead to better results. Achieving a successful jump often means prioritizing the challenge of the jump itself rather than becoming overly concerned with landing accuracy.
Ultimately, the key is to cultivate a mindset that embraces the jump and its inherent challenges. It’s important to approach each jump with a focus on overcoming mental barriers and to have the confidence to take off from the starting point. A balanced approach can lead to greater accomplishments in performing these jumps effectively.
Key Points:
- Maintaining momentum and flow is more important than focusing purely on landing accuracy during running jumps.
- Overcoming fears related to jumping should take precedence over reducing jump size or difficulty.
- Developing confidence in jumping comes from embracing the challenge and prioritizing the execution of the jump itself.
The tenth level is to demonstrate a single-leg running jump over a hip-height gap that is nine steps (heel-to-toe) away.
You can now take as many steps into the running jump as required to cover the distance.
Any landing is accepted.
You must repeat three times on each leg.
