NetJuggler's opinion on the Jumping Ball
We obviously like the 80 cm version which we can play with here in our premises! Perfect for pre-teens (and adults) who need to let off some steam. Robust structure! The foot pump sends little air, but it is more than enough to inflate a balloon and it works well.
Warning: Not suitable for children under 36 months. To be used under adult supervision and for domestic use only.

Ideas for Warming Up a Group (Sports or Circus Class)
Circle Warm-up

Dynamic Stretches
The children gently jump in place and, at regular intervals, the leader asks for specific stretches : touch the toes, stretch the arms one by one towards the sky, etc. This exercise combines movement and stretching to complete physical preparation.
Goal: Prepare muscles for exercise while remaining active. Dynamic stretching increases flexibility and reduces the risk of injury.
