Over 30 years I began my jump rope career as part of the Juneau Jumpers in Juneau, AK. I’m currently spending Christmas and New Years up in Alaska and last week I had the opportunity to teach the current Juneau Jumpers team. Not just teach, I was asked to also give some history of the team. I will never forget the reason I decided to start jumping rope.

I remember watching that show and deciding that I wanted toRead More →

One of the lines that he would say is that jump rope is a cooperative education model. As a kid I never even thought twice about it, some form of PE Teacher gobbledy-gook that I didn’t understand or care to ask about.
