You need to have them say HIT when they jump- EVERY time. also you must teach them the counts for putting their hands on the floor in their tumbling pass- and how many steps to get there- then make sure you are counting above the music so they hear you . Run it this way all the time and they will get used to it. Good luck
They do say hit every time when they jump. It took a while to get it to stick, but they do it. We've tried just having them stand in place and swing their arms to the counts yelling "hit", doing straight jumps and yelling "hit", but once we try with the actual jumps, it gets a little chaotic.
We've also given them counts for their tumbling passes, and told them what line to start the pass on, but I've never counted out steps. I'll try that! Thanks.
