Behind the Practice: Rhythm & Bounce Drill

Wanted to give you an inside look at me practicing the Rhythm & Bounce drill. Here’s the breakdown of what I was working on:

🟢 0:00–0:13Dead stops — locking the movement for just a split second by squeezing elbows and knees.

🟢 0:14–1:00Running the same technique through the drill’s flow: head → shoulders → hips. The challenge here is freezing both physically and visually before dropping back into bounce.

🟢 1:01–1:47The hardest layer — instead of stopping, I changed the texture. After an isolation, I rolled into a smooth “jack” up (hips to head), then flowed back into bounce. This one pushed me.

Even in practice, you’ll hear me admit when it felt difficult.

That’s the work.

That’s where growth lives.

👉🏾 If you’re hitting walls in this drill or want to fine-tune your texture control, this is exactly what we cover in private coaching sessions.

Sometimes 1:1 eyes on you is what makes everything click faster.

DM me if you’re ready to set one up.

What’s been the hardest part of Rhythm & Bounce for you so far?
