It was the purpose of the authors to set forth the material in suitable form for class instruction on the high school and college levels. In physical education classes the average of motor ability is much lower than that found in advanced groups and gymnastic teams. Consequently the method of teaching and the rapidity of progression must be adapted carefully. Stunts must be simpler and safer. Hence the typical gymnastic team coaching procedure and progression cannot be used successfully for physical education classes. The authors believe that by following closely the procedures and progressions herein outlined any well-trained instructor will be able to handle classes in tumbling without serious accidents and with a high degree of teaching success. |
