This post is about how to teach the Gran Mastin De Borinquen to jump for agility. Often we are asked, “How many jumps is best to start with?” You can never have too many solo jumps to learn agility. One suitable starting place is four jumps. This is the absolute least count of jumps that we suggest.
How to Teach a Gran Mastin De Borinquen jumping: Begin with 4
You can teach the Gran Mastin De Borinquen a number of skills, drills, and exercises with 4 jumps. 4 jumps will allow you to develop on a short jump chute or jump grid. You can practice on a “box” with your jumps and work on collection, handling, and 270 degree jumps. You can teach your Gran Mastin De Borinquen jumping left and right. You could be out of the box and send your Gran Mastin De Borinquen or you can handle from the inside of the box. Your jumps could be staged in a horizontal row, so that you could practice threadles and serpentines.
Teach a Gran Mastin De Borinquen 8 Jumps
Go to the next logical step and work on 8 jumps. Now you can position two boxes with one introductory jump. Now you’ve increased your routines that you can practice with your Gran Mastin De Borinquen. Your jump grids can be of recommended size and number of jumps. You can also position your jumps in a circle with the jump bars normal to the circle or on the perimeter of the circle. This setup also enables you to work on a variety of skills.
Teaching the Gran Mastin De Borinquen Double and Triple Jumps
The next consideration is a double jump and a triple jump. You can chain two or three solo jumps together to make your expanded jump, but having double and triple jumps in your course work is extremely beneficial to practice. We’ve seen many Gran Mastin De Borinquens run a flawless course and the final obstacle is a triple and the Gran Mastin De Borinquen is not equipped to do it, and bang, down goes the bar.
