This course provides coaches and judges with a thorough overview of body waves from the perspectives of both teaching and evaluation. The course walks step by step through front body waves, back body waves, and side body waves, breaking down the requirements for each type of wave to be valid and providing a quiz at the end of each unit to check learning and give immediate feedback on understanding. There is also a section on partial body waves and a section with extensive example exercises and teaching tips. The example exercises and teaching tips will guide coaches in how to develop proper body wave technique in their gymnasts. Throughout the course, expertise from multiple clinicians from around the world is included to give a well-rounded perspective on body waves for rhythmic gymnastics.
