About this program

What this program covers

Floor exercise in artistic gymnastics is judged on both acrobatic difficulty and artistry — and many gymnasts train the first category far more than the second.

Dance choreography in floor is not filler between tumbling passes. The Code of Points specifies required dance elements, and their quality directly affects the execution score. A poorly performed leap series or a transition that lacks shape costs as concretely as a bent knee on a tumble.

This course addresses the choreographic and technical requirements of floor exercise dance content. We work through the mechanics of required elements — leaps, jumps, turns, and pirouettes — and then focus on how to construct transitions that flow rather than stall.

What gymnasts work on

  • Split leap and straddle jump with correct technique and landing control
  • Turn sequences: full and double pirouettes, attitude turns
  • Choreographic transitions connecting tumbling to dance
  • Musical phrasing — matching element placement to music structure
  • Arm and upper body coordination throughout combinations

The course suits gymnasts competing at regional or national junior levels, as well as coaches looking to improve their choreographic vocabulary.

All skill work is filmed and reviewed in each session.

How the program unfolds

Each stage builds on the one before it, giving you a concrete foundation before the material grows more demanding. Skipping ahead rarely helps — the structure is deliberate.

Module Overview

Module 1 — Required Element Technique (3 weeks)

Detailed breakdown of Code of Points dance elements for floor. Each element examined technically, corrected, then practiced with approach and landing.

  • Leaps: split, straddle, ring, wolf jump
  • Turns: pirouette, attitude, Y-turn, illusion
  • Jump combinations and rhythm within series

Module 2 — Transition Craft (2 weeks)

How to move between acrobatic and dance content without losing performance quality. Focus on choreographic logic and spatial flow.

  • Connecting steps, balances, and poses
  • Directional changes that read clearly to judges
  • Arm positioning during approach and departure from tumbling

Module 3 — Routine Assembly (3 weeks)

Participants build a complete 30-second floor dance passage using their own music and existing skill set.

  • Choreographic planning with a score structure in mind
  • Rehearsal and refinement over three sessions
  • Final recorded performance with written feedback
8 weeks total, twice weekly, 75 minutes per session
