“[Jump Rope] is something that anybody can learn, but you can spend a lifetime trying to master.” — Chris Holmes 

Chris Holmes, (IG: @jumpropevideos, www.jumpropevideos.com) is a former jump rope world champion, and has been involved with the sport for over 30 years. He’s performed and taught in 11 countries, and has won several championships at both national and worldwide competitions. Chris is currently a board member of the American Jump Rope Federation. 

Needless to say, Chris knows jump rope really well! During our conversation, we dive into so many great topics, including competition structure, notable jump ropers, the origin stories of many different jump skills, the current state of competitive jump rope, and so much more. Many of the skills we discuss are better visualized than heard, and you can find the hyperlinks in the show notes.

Please enjoy!
