More Information

Coaches Brent and Madison Nix are world-class jumpropers who have been both jumping since 1998. Siblings and best friends, they grew up training together and medaled at the national level many times over, in addition to various international competitions around the world. They have performed in front of many thousands of people at concerts, half-time shows of all sports at the highschool, collegiate, and professional level, and many, many gradeschools.

Madison has been jumping since she was able to walk. An 18x national champion, she has taught in nearly every state in the US and all over the globe including Portugal, Spain, France, Italy, Germany, England, Israel, Brazil, Palestine, Paraguay, Switzerland, Canada, and Denmark. She has also jumproped as a stunt actor in a movie! She loves to share the joy and creativity of jump rope and the team building skills it teaches. She now teaches music and acting at an elementary school in the LA area.

 Brent (6 years her senior) has been jumping since he was in 3rd grade. He has taught jumprope to thousands of students across the US, Israel, Palestine, Jordan, Brazil, Canada, and the British Virgin Islands. He spent 2 years as a boys gymnastics coach, 4 years as a rock climbing instructor, 2 years as an open-water kayak guide and instructor, and has been a physical trainer for boxers, varsity football, and varsity wrestlers at the highschool and collegiate level. He now studies kungfu and deeply believes that when done correctly, jumprope is one of the best ways to develop the body for kungfu - specifically snake and crane energies. He is passionate about exploring, studying and teaching body movement arts.

In this workshop, campers will be introduced to the basics of jumprope, learn foundational movements and tricks, and also learn how to put them together in a sequence for performance. ALL CAMPERS ARE WELCOME! No experience is required and students will be instructed based on their ability/age.
