In today's video we are discussing the recommended order of the first foundational Rope Flow movements to learn as a beginner, before moving on to more advanced or 'fancy' flows.
Start at the beginning and learn how to do Rope Flow building block movement patterns to set yourself up for quicker success in your Flow journey and help prevent you from developing some common and often counterproductive bad habits!

I just got a rope gifted to me for Christmas, from my dear mom. Thank you for this video, I can't wait to get outside today and try them!
Hey that’s awesome! I hope you have fun with it - that’s the cool thing about these ropes, you can really get into the feel of the flow and before you know it you’re hooked lol
If you have any trouble or questions I’m always happy to help!
Also in case you could use some instruction, our online course for beginners is free (link in description)!
Watched your underhand sneak video and really appreciated that! Thank you. Note here for future videos that the movement you described the rope doing as transverse plane is actually frontal plane. Thanks again for your teaching!!
Thank you so much!
I do understand your point on the ‘transverse’ plane, it’s probably a bit confusing for people familiar with the planes of the body, however in this context (Rope Flow) we use the term transverse plane to describe rope movements that cross toe to toe (rope passing in front) or heel to heel (rope passing behind) - with these transverse planes essentially being the way we transfer between overhand or underhand rope movements (toe to heel, or heel to toe rope path, respectively).
It may help if you consider it this way - when you look at the process the body typically needs to employ to go from, say an overhand pattern to an underhand one, the necessary rotation of the torso does actually occur in the ‘transverse plane’ of the body (midline rotation, such as at the hip) in order to help the rope travel in front of or behind the individual (toe to toe or heel to heel).
This is probably easier to see in action with a move such as the Dragon Roll, for instance - but also true in most transitional movements going between overhand and underhand.
Sorry so long, but hope that helped clarify a bit, I know it can easily be confusing!
I started Rope Flow about six weeks ago with an online program I bought. It's...ok. Your video is a great reminder, especially for those of us who aren't as young and limber as we used to be, to warm up with the basics (which I HAVE to do, anyway). I hope my Sneak looks as smooth as yours does--soon! Thanks !
YW! If you practice and make sure to record yourself or watch in a mirror regularly, my experience is that’s really the fastest way to get smoothness & fluidity!
Also feel free to check out our beginner’s course (link is in description) as it’s 🆓 - if you do, I’d love your feedback on it as well 😃
Great explanations! Thank you😊 I created my own rope yesterday and now I start with these movements❤
Thank you! Let me know how it goes! If you need help definitely check out our free course for beginners for specific instructions on form and theory!
I stop at 90 degrees and OH or UH before switching dragon Roll directions. I'll give your method a try.
Sweet, lmk how it goes for you if you get a chance!
@@aRobustLife It went smooth. Nice and easy transition. Not sure why I hadn't tried that before. Only been at this a few weeks so mostly just learning the basics rather trying to just flow. I subscribed and will be watching more of your stuff.
So glad to hear it!! 💪🏽
If you're new to the flow, I think you'd enjoy our free course, it's designed to help folks get their fundamentals down and understand the reasons why we do things a certain way :)

@@aRobustLife Thanks, will do.
Isn't this the same as jump rope only you not jumping
They both require ropes, so naturally there are many similarities, but they’re definitely not the same - as you mentioned in one case you jump over it and in the other you move yourself around the rope. Moving around the rope creates a situation where you rise and fall in sync with the rope, as opposed to jump rope where you’re rising as the rope is falling, for example.
The fact is that everything that CAN be done with a flow rope can also be done with a jump rope and vice versa…it’s just that flow ropes are typically heavier and thicker and they have a different ‘movement personality’ and are therefore used differently than one would usually use a jump rope.
Skipping rope will be far more impactful and stressful on the joints, which is an issue for many, it’s also typically more of a cardio workout - although both can be done as HIIT, it’s more common to do so with jumping rope or even using ‘double-unders’ which is rarely if ever done with a flow rope due to their size, weight and generally slower rotational speed.
Rope flow on the other hand typically has a greater benefit to mobility, balance and coordination, training of the non-dominant side, can inspire more creativity and is used by some in a meditative manner, akin to something like Tai Chi
They’re both excellent forms of exercise but very different in purpose and benefits.
camera too close
Good point. You’re probably correct, thanks
