How do you perform a Side Jump?
- Place your feet slightly apart.
- Bend your legs to jump to the side in a springy motion.
- Use your arm movements to guide the jump.
- Land with both feet on the floor on the opposite side of where you jumped.
- Bend your legs to soften the landing.
- Repeat the side jump by jumping to the other side.
- Maintain good posture and make sure you cushion your landing by bending your knees.
Common faults
- Insufficient coordination with the arms.
- The knees do not bend enough on takeoff and landing.
- Push off or land on one foot.
