Understanding Balance in Travel

Balance is essential for a travel sequence to flow smoothly and safely.

Half Turn Jump

A half turn jump involves rotating 180 degrees while in the air.

Full Turn Jump

A full turn jump involves completing a 360-degree rotation while in the air.

Incorporating Turns into Travel Sequence

Integrating half turn and full turn jumps adds dynamic elements to a travel sequence.

Selecting a Mode of Travel

Modes of travel such as running, leaping, or gliding contribute to the variety and interest of a travel sequence.

Creating a Balanced Travel Sequence

Combine balanced turns and a chosen mode of travel to craft a captivating travel sequence.

Interactive Activity: Balancing and Sequencing

Students will work in pairs to choreograph a travel sequence with balanced turns and a mode of travel.

Presentation and Reflection

Each pair will present their travel sequence to the class, followed by a reflection on the balancing and sequencing process.
