00:00:00.320 --> 00:00:02.240
Hello, senior bouncers.

00:00:02.400 --> 00:00:06.480
Welcome to today's class. Carefully step up onto

00:00:06.560 --> 00:00:09.680
your mini trampoline. I like to have a step nearby.

00:00:09.840 --> 00:00:12.240
Hopefully, you have your t bar or stability

00:00:12.240 --> 00:00:14.480
bar attached to your mini trampoline.

00:00:15.015 --> 00:00:19.335
We're gonna have our core in tight and engaged the whole time.

00:00:19.735 --> 00:00:25.655
Our shoulders are back and down away from our ears, and we have a very slight bend in our knees.

00:00:25.975 --> 00:00:33.150
Shoes or no shoes, it's entirely your preference. I will leave that decision up to you. Let's get started right now.

00:00:35.070 --> 00:00:36.990
Starting out with the health bounce.

00:00:38.430 --> 00:00:40.350
Our feet are flat

00:00:40.590 --> 00:00:41.790
on our mat,

00:00:42.030 --> 00:00:44.030
pushing down into the mat,

00:00:45.345 --> 00:00:51.665
and allowing our feet to rebound up off the rebounder mini trampoline surface.

00:00:52.465 --> 00:00:54.305
Don't forget about that core.

00:00:56.305 --> 00:00:57.745
And your gaze is forward,

00:01:00.500 --> 00:01:02.340
bouncing into the mat

00:01:03.620 --> 00:01:07.540
with a health bounce transitioning into a march in place.

00:01:08.260 --> 00:01:10.340
Just lifting and lowering the foot

00:01:10.980 --> 00:01:12.020
at your pace,

00:01:13.015 --> 00:01:15.895
holding on to your stability bar or t bar.

00:01:16.935 --> 00:01:22.135
You're if you have a little bit more confidence and you're a little bit more secure, feel free to put them on your waist.

00:01:23.495 --> 00:01:24.855
Marching up and down here.

00:01:26.200 --> 00:01:28.040
Today is very basic,

00:01:28.760 --> 00:01:32.680
very entry level, just getting things circulating in the body,

00:01:33.720 --> 00:01:36.040
going back into a health bounce here.

00:01:37.320 --> 00:01:41.745
It's very important to keep circulation going in our body.

00:01:41.985 --> 00:01:46.145
Coordination is an awesome thing too as we continue to age.

00:01:47.505 --> 00:01:51.745
Rebounder is very good for both of those things. It helps flush out our lymphatic system,

00:01:52.860 --> 00:02:01.020
keeps blood pumping throughout the body, and being on an unsteady surface is challenging for our equilibrium and stability and mobility.

00:02:04.140 --> 00:02:05.660
Tapping out to the side.

00:02:06.540 --> 00:02:07.740
Again, your pace.

00:02:08.395 --> 00:02:12.235
You need to go slower and not incorporate any bounce whatsoever.

00:02:12.475 --> 00:02:13.435
You're here.

00:02:13.915 --> 00:02:17.755
You're still on an unsteady surface. You're still being challenged.

00:02:18.715 --> 00:02:20.475
You wanna do the little bounce in between?

00:02:21.720 --> 00:02:22.840
You do that.

00:02:23.000 --> 00:02:24.120
You do you.

00:02:27.560 --> 00:02:30.120
Holding on to your stability bar just

00:02:31.080 --> 00:02:33.000
adds a little bit more comfort

00:02:33.800 --> 00:02:35.000
and security.

00:02:35.240 --> 00:02:36.200
Health bounce here.

00:02:39.615 --> 00:02:46.335
A health bounce is an incredible thing in and of itself. If you're here and you're only doing the health bounce,

00:02:46.415 --> 00:02:48.575
I am very, very impressed with that.

00:02:49.230 --> 00:02:51.710
Please do that if that's where you're at.

00:02:53.150 --> 00:02:56.270
But thank you for joining me today and moving your body with me.

00:02:58.670 --> 00:03:01.870
We're gonna tap our toes forward this time

00:03:03.855 --> 00:03:05.535
with or without the bounce.

00:03:08.015 --> 00:03:12.015
Not gonna do anything complicated today. No complicated choreography

00:03:12.015 --> 00:03:13.055
or moves.

00:03:13.855 --> 00:03:19.950
Trying to keep things basic to our things that we do on an everyday basis.

00:03:21.390 --> 00:03:23.790
We move forward. We move sideways.

00:03:24.670 --> 00:03:25.630
We move

00:03:26.190 --> 00:03:28.590
towards the back of the room,

00:03:30.430 --> 00:03:31.390
practicing everything.

00:03:34.145 --> 00:03:36.225
Returning to our health bounce here.

00:03:42.385 --> 00:03:44.705
Pushing down evenly with our feet

00:03:46.140 --> 00:03:47.420
into the mat.

00:03:48.300 --> 00:03:57.820
Do not let your feet go off to the side or concave in too far back on the heel or too far forward. Try and get as evenly as possible

00:03:58.780 --> 00:03:59.740
into the mat.

00:04:03.925 --> 00:04:07.285
Single side step out. So you're putting, you're transferring,

00:04:07.685 --> 00:04:10.245
the majority of your weight is in

00:04:10.485 --> 00:04:11.525
this foot here,

00:04:12.180 --> 00:04:13.300
your stabilizing

00:04:13.300 --> 00:04:13.940
foot,

00:04:14.420 --> 00:04:16.180
leg, and tapping out

00:04:17.060 --> 00:04:19.700
and in with the other leg.

00:04:20.580 --> 00:04:21.300
Foot.

00:04:22.980 --> 00:04:23.620
Flat

00:04:26.100 --> 00:04:31.325
foot here too for the tap out, or you can have a little bit more on your tippy toes.

00:04:33.085 --> 00:04:38.285
We're gonna switch now. Other side. Whatever your lead leg was, you're switching it out.

00:04:40.050 --> 00:04:40.850
Tap,

00:04:41.090 --> 00:04:41.730
tap.

00:04:42.690 --> 00:04:43.650
Practicing

00:04:44.050 --> 00:04:45.490
a side movement.

00:04:51.970 --> 00:04:54.855
Putting that weight, shifting it on that stabilizing

00:04:54.855 --> 00:04:55.655
leg,

00:04:56.535 --> 00:04:58.055
building some strength,

00:05:03.655 --> 00:05:05.620
and return to the health bounce.

00:05:11.060 --> 00:05:15.220
Please let me know in the comments section below where you're working out with me from.

00:05:15.540 --> 00:05:21.065
I love hearing from you and where you are around the world. I'm from Toronto, Canada.

00:05:22.265 --> 00:05:26.345
And if you like this video, please like, share, comment, and kindly subscribe.

00:05:26.825 --> 00:05:27.865
Share with your friends.

00:05:32.840 --> 00:05:34.680
Don't forget about that core.

00:05:35.080 --> 00:05:35.960
Carefully

00:05:36.040 --> 00:05:39.560
switch to one side and continue your bounce,

00:05:39.880 --> 00:05:44.120
getting a little practice here on having one hand

00:05:46.825 --> 00:05:50.185
on the stability bar, just facing in a different direction.

00:05:51.065 --> 00:05:52.905
Pick something to focus on.

00:05:56.665 --> 00:05:58.425
We'll get the other side right after.

00:05:59.560 --> 00:06:02.840
If you want to make this into a march, you go ahead.

00:06:03.960 --> 00:06:04.920
Carefully

00:06:05.000 --> 00:06:05.960
switch.

00:06:06.440 --> 00:06:09.160
If you're getting dizzy, stop here in the middle.

00:06:10.520 --> 00:06:14.165
I don't know your body. I don't know your physical capabilities.

00:06:14.165 --> 00:06:16.165
I don't know what your limitations are.

00:06:17.205 --> 00:06:21.285
Only you know those things. This is just a guide for you.

00:06:24.965 --> 00:06:28.100
That's why I highly recommend the stability bar.

00:06:34.180 --> 00:06:37.060
Return to the front carefully, your pace,

00:06:37.220 --> 00:06:39.060
and give me a march in place.

00:06:39.300 --> 00:06:45.865
Perhaps you're a little warmed up now that you can kinda pick up the foot a little bit higher than previously.

00:06:48.265 --> 00:06:50.265
Breathe. Don't hold your breath.

00:06:51.865 --> 00:06:53.225
Put a smile on your face.

00:06:54.990 --> 00:06:59.150
You're moving your body. You're flushing out your lymphatic system.

00:06:59.950 --> 00:07:02.110
You're building some good cardiovascular

00:07:02.110 --> 00:07:03.150
work here.

00:07:04.270 --> 00:07:05.630
Give me that tap out again.

00:07:07.375 --> 00:07:08.655
You're improving

00:07:08.735 --> 00:07:09.615
mobility,

00:07:09.775 --> 00:07:10.815
stability.

00:07:11.695 --> 00:07:14.255
The ankles are working, stabilizing

00:07:14.255 --> 00:07:15.775
muscles in the legs.

00:07:18.415 --> 00:07:20.975
You're pumping the blood throughout the body.

00:07:22.410 --> 00:07:24.970
You're using your brain with some stability

00:07:24.970 --> 00:07:26.570
work here that we're doing.

00:07:27.690 --> 00:07:28.890
The coordination,

00:07:29.690 --> 00:07:31.370
it's all good stuff.

00:07:33.930 --> 00:07:35.690
Return to a march in place here.

00:07:40.055 --> 00:07:41.415
I encourage you

00:07:41.655 --> 00:07:45.015
to possibly look into the benefits of rebounding.

00:07:45.975 --> 00:07:53.700
There's a link to the mat, to the rebounder that I'm using, the mini trampoline. It's called the Bee Can. Great customer service.

00:07:54.020 --> 00:07:57.140
I highly recommend them. Got a great bounce.

00:07:59.860 --> 00:08:03.700
You can look up and read up more about rebounding in the description box below.

00:08:04.945 --> 00:08:09.825
Give me front heels this time. Last time we did front toe taps.

00:08:09.985 --> 00:08:12.865
Now we're doing what we call a heel dig.

00:08:13.905 --> 00:08:22.840
With or without, if you're not using the bounce, you're here. You're flexing the toe up towards the ceiling and getting your heel to tap forward on the mat.

00:08:27.960 --> 00:08:30.440
I know this is probably challenging you.

00:08:30.920 --> 00:08:32.120
It's meant to

00:08:32.360 --> 00:08:34.440
in a safe fashion.

00:08:34.840 --> 00:08:35.960
I'll bounce here.

00:08:37.715 --> 00:08:45.475
Like I had just said, and I will repeat it, I don't know your body. I don't know where you're at in your physical journey.

00:08:47.235 --> 00:08:48.995
So you have to gauge.

00:08:49.635 --> 00:08:52.820
You have to gauge where you are, where you'd like to go today.

00:08:53.940 --> 00:08:55.700
That's up to you to decide.

00:08:58.260 --> 00:09:00.820
We're gonna practice tap backs again.

00:09:02.180 --> 00:09:03.940
Don't forget about your core.

00:09:04.260 --> 00:09:06.820
Tap back with or without the bounce, without the bounce.

00:09:07.785 --> 00:09:12.745
It's a tap back, return your foot. Tap back, return your foot.

00:09:14.105 --> 00:09:14.825
Your call.

00:09:22.660 --> 00:09:24.180
Gentle on the joints.

00:09:25.140 --> 00:09:26.500
We're not jarring

00:09:27.300 --> 00:09:32.020
our bones, our joints on a floor, pounding down into the floor. This is gentle,

00:09:32.435 --> 00:09:33.475
rebounding.

00:09:34.995 --> 00:09:36.275
House bounce here.

00:09:37.635 --> 00:09:39.475
Pushing down into the mat.

00:09:41.475 --> 00:09:42.355
Nice work.

00:09:49.210 --> 00:09:50.410
Very nice.

00:09:54.170 --> 00:09:56.330
I can feel that in my legs,

00:09:58.010 --> 00:09:59.050
front and back.

00:10:03.705 --> 00:10:09.385
Okay. Our last move here, we're gonna be a little challenging. We're going out, out, in, in.

00:10:09.945 --> 00:10:11.625
This is the most challenging

00:10:11.785 --> 00:10:12.505
part

00:10:12.745 --> 00:10:13.945
of our walk today.

00:10:16.450 --> 00:10:19.010
If you're not using the bounce, you're stepping out,

00:10:19.250 --> 00:10:24.530
out, returning in the first position, stepping out, stepping out,

00:10:24.770 --> 00:10:25.490
in,

00:10:25.730 --> 00:10:28.050
in. You can reverse your lead leg,

00:10:29.805 --> 00:10:31.965
balance things out a little bit more,

00:10:34.525 --> 00:10:35.245
and

00:10:35.805 --> 00:10:39.005
we're done. Return here to a health bounce.

00:10:39.325 --> 00:10:40.605
Let's bring our

00:10:41.085 --> 00:10:41.965
breathing down,

00:10:44.740 --> 00:10:45.940
heart rate down.

00:10:46.180 --> 00:10:49.300
Slow it down here deliberately and intentionally.

00:10:49.940 --> 00:10:54.660
Never want you to just exit your rebound or mini trampoline before you're ready.

00:10:55.540 --> 00:10:57.300
Come here and just

00:10:57.620 --> 00:10:59.545
relax. Catch your breath.

00:11:01.545 --> 00:11:02.585
Breathe in

00:11:03.385 --> 00:11:04.585
and out.

00:11:04.905 --> 00:11:10.345
When you're ready and only when you're ready, carefully holding on to your stabilizer

00:11:10.345 --> 00:11:10.665
bar,

00:11:11.720 --> 00:11:17.000
step off. That's why I like to have the extra step here. Adds a little bit more convenience.

00:11:18.120 --> 00:11:21.400
Thank you for joining me today, and I will see you in the next video.
