Q: How did you come up with the name “Teardrop and Sweat” Effect? A: Since we will be jump roping for certain periods of a time it will cause you to sweat, and during the intervals we focus on various exercises that target various muscle groups. So the next day you will be sore from the class. Sometimes you will be so sore it will be hard to walk or move. And all this effects everyone differently. So that is how I came up with the name, “Teardrop and Sweat” Effect. But itʼs more or a play on words more than anything. Q: Can you give me a brief layout of a class and how is this class any different then any other jump rope classes? A: I lay this class out so the main focus is on various footwork and jump rope techniques. And the intervals are base on what footwork variations we are working on at that given time. Also the intervals are fitness related so you get a full body work out at the same time. Before every class I educate everyone on one way to properly measure up their ropes so itʼs the right length and then the proper form to use for jump roping. And then we go from there. Some jump rope variations I use in the class:
