@@matttcameron_me too lol. I was 298lbs and my daughter told me one day at the playground dad why do t you play with me at the park and that changed my perspective on life as both my parents past away when I was younger due to bad health. I started watching strength side animal flows and a year later I was 180lbs. Now my daughters friends at the park call me the monkey man because I crawl and exercise on the jungle gym lol. Now I’m going to incorporate rope flow into my martial arts flow as well

I’ve been practicing for the last 3 years. I have such bad coordination, it was super challenging for me. I started with rope skipping but when I first tried rope flow, it was like something clicked in my mind. Then you discover you can transfer the skill to Indian clubs, to steel clubs and bo staff, it’s just internalizing the patterns. For me replicating the movement on both sides was the most difficult. Very often, when I travel, I’ll just pack a rope and an elastic band.

I've been doing medieval armored combat for 9 years, and I definitely agree - transferring power through a weapon is the same as swinging a rope. If your technique doesn't work with a rope, then you are probably causing undue strain on your joints when your strike lands.

What I like about this, and I enforce this with rehab clients, is that it builds coordination. Stimulating the mind and body together. Thereby improving balance and stability.

Cool, I never heard of rope flow before. Going to be knocking shit over with a resistance band today for sure 😁

I’ve been doing that while waiting for my rope to arrive. Smacked my legs up a bit, and got the kitten all excited to chase the band. Maybe outside and alone might work better?

Rope flow has been a game changer for my running technique. The joy of it is that after some rope practice, you don't even need to think about your running technique, it just subconsciously shifts to being more efficient. I love it ☺️🙏

I’ve practiced Flow Arts for almost 25 years, and I’m so happy you guys have discovered what’s so great about it -- it’s all REALLY good for your body, and is an incredible workout. I spin long staff (contact staff), double staff, poi, dragon staff, and occasionally fans. Rope flow is closest to poi. Cheers!

This video inspired me to try rope flow for myself with a bit of scrap line from my dad’s boating days. It’s so much fun I went ahead and ordered some real flow ropes and Tim’s course. I really love the way it has captured my imagination. The fun of it has me up and moving much more than usual. The low impact aspect plus the playfulness, plus flow? Yes!

New dimension and a game changer in being conscious about muscle coordination. Great seeing you do this and bringing it to limelight.

I happened to catch your first vid with Tim about rope and bought a rope shortly after that... game changing to say the least. Use it nearly daily, been telling everyone I meet and even running workshops to get new peeps involved. Thank you for being my gateway to heavy rope

Almost missed this Demo as I wasn't sure about the title and pleasantly surprised to be introduced to this technique. Imagining being outside on a brisk cold day and walking home from the park all sweaty. Good one❕

Most people dismiss ropeflow because it looks childish and simplistic. Ropeflow gives you the agility of a dancer, the full body coordination of a pole vaulter and the mental focus of a boxer. Try it.

Ive been active my whole life..running, cycling, lifting, surfing, swimming, hula paddling......this ONE activity appears to be such an overall warmup for many daily activities. The body loves rhythm....easy, simple...love it...thanks so much...im 63 now..heehee

I wonder if the benefits with improving how you walk are partially because it involves crossing the midline? Crossing midline strengthens the neural connection between the left and right hemispheres of your brain. Crossing the midline activities help develop gross motor skills such as coordination and balance. I learned about the midline when my son went to occupational therapy. I'm going to do this with my son. Thanks for the inspiration!

Appreciate you turning me on to the rope over a year ago. It's been a great relationship. The flow has been fun and also very meditative. Part of my daily routine... Congratulations on the twins!

Much love for highlighting rope flow❤ 3 years in, it has changed my body and spirit.

@vaughan45g, Six months since your comment, how is it going? I have some experience coaching adaptive athletes and I’m a little over a year into my rope practice. I would think that being you’re focused on single arm patterns the magic will be in the footwork you bring into your practice. Steps, turns, spins, etc. I know that I get quite a bit of out of single arm patterns combined with locomotion. I will frequently take my rope for a walk, and even take it for a “jog” with slow bouncy strides (which can be tremendous cardio respiratory training).

Hi guys, great video, as always! Thanks! Sometimes I manage to arrive early to the gym class and then I always use the rope for warm-up. Very even warm-up for the whole body and a very good warm-up as well. Keep up the good work! BR, M

So thankful for the rope and all it has taught me about moving joyfully! This summer on a big road trip I would bust out the rope at rest stops as a great way to move around on long driving days. And between rope and crawling around I don't really get clicky shoulders anymore when I do simple things like reach up to turn the ceiling fan off in the morning.

Interesting stuff!

Never heard of this and older people can do this thanks

Love this. The focus, flexibility, coordination and flow - I think it's a smart way to train without realising you're training.

Cool. I’ll try this and into it to my kids. You guys should explore and do a video on Slacklining. It makes an enormous difference to your balance. It improves proprioception and strengthens intrinsic muscles like nothing else.

Congrats on the kiddos! Gonna try this rope stuff. Also big thanks for the lems shoes recc i live in mine now :)

Your local climbing gym might give you their used/retired climbing ropes for free. Cut them into a bunch of pieces and you've got ropes for a party with all your friends

Is the correct rope back braided/weighted on both ends? If not it can be cheaper. Sunset halters can braid a nylon double braid rein product for you in the length you need.

Rhythmical movements make exponential improvements to the neuromuscular system. And, of course, you're also working to improve dynamic balance. This is a superb fitness/wellness technology, which addresses many of the elements of fitness. I'm very impressed!

“Anything from Meditative to strategic” - I guess that description is how to convince me to try something

OMG! You're in my hometown (if you call a county a town) in most of these videos. Love it 🤩🤩🤩. I was like... Redwoods?!? And then I was like, ah, the park, too! And the State beach!

This seems really like flow performance, poi and rope dart and the such, ill have to give it a go, because those are great fun!

This is amazing. Be mindful though - doing all of those figure eights in any practice is about to manifest the world, so watch your thoughts words and actions (always) but especially immediately before during and after!

This, hanging and squatting videos. I am just starting here as well, but had been doing these three things for awhile. Bob and Brad physical therapy to heal problem spots😁

We do a lot of rope handling with natural horsemanship. We use the best quality nylon double braid 1/2 inch. Our stick has 1/4 " 6 ft of rope on the end that is crackable with practice. Another fun thing to practice with your rope is to throw it, holding one end. Improves aim. A 3rd fun thing I want to try is sling and stone aim practice. Hope you do a video on that sometime😍

Really interesting, thank you. How is the ideal length of rope determined for each person?

been using the rope before my workouts and love to flow out and about

Now just imagine what you could do with a long chain or a bo staff. Looking good my dude.

Very good 😊 thx

This looks cool and I'm going to get me a rope and try it out. Looks like a cross between jumprope and nunchaku. Have you tried nunchaku by the way? I've been tinkering with them for about a year now, not as a weapon or for fighting, but as a warmup / low intensity cardio. The various spins and rolls run the upper body through a bunch of different positions.

👏👏👏🙏🙏 tree hérnias.. for years with pain...started conservative...3 montes now...90% pain gone.. can’t believe the change on my body.. this guys know what they are doing 👏👏

This essentially just like flow arts like poi and Chinese rope dart/meteor hammer. Awesome! Glad to see stuff like this becoming more mainstream!

Reminds me of when I used to run with my escrima sticks and do drills while walking. A rope adds a little something and looks less imposing on the trails. I will try.

Love the dog.

Great video. What rope would you recommend? Thank you.

From a neurological perspective, any movement crossing the vertical midline of the body, like rope flow, increases firing of the corpus callosum, the "conduit" between the right and left hemispheres of the brain which provides a wealth of benefits too numerous to go into here, but short version is IT IS GREAT.

I did competitive jump rope for a few years as a kid and we used a lot of these movements (just with much lighter ropes)

I love that beach. Gonna give in avtry as soon as i heal my rotator cuff tear.

Holy cow. You guys have a gym in Trinidad now? I wanna come! :)

State beach moonstone and big rock! Nice🤙

Soo Cool

I’m curious, have you tried steel mace flow?

Reminds of the extension cord wind up my father used to do when he whipped us 😢

This looks like a much needed form of excercise in one's life. What must the length of the rope be? One's height?

That looks awesome, but what length of rope should i get?

Rope flow is dope yo.

Looks nice, but I'm immediately thinking of how to do those movements with Indian clubs, my latest fad. I know I'm 100 years late in my Indian clubbs fad, but I'm a revival guy! But steel clubs and maces are fairly new, aren't they? I see just a few 10-years old YT videos about it!

A "movement snack", i like it.

reminds me of using a veil in belly dance - looks easy but is definitely any thing but. takes lots and lots and lots of practice.

I've been doing the basics of rope flow for over a year now since your first collab together. Inspiring stuff. It has helped with my scoliosis therapy and my running. My only concern is the occasional deep stitch I get in my abs when I do it at high speed and intensity. I should probably just slow it down more often, but do you have any tips for avoiding that?

That's gotta be Oregon right? I loved living in Eugene.

Man when I was a kid there was always some grownup yelling at me to stop spinning my rope. I loved it, finally I stopped but I've been picking it back up and sharing it with my kids. I think it's awesome how all the playthings are becoming workout things. We're breaking out of the gyms and taking it back outside. Power to the outsiders .😂

That rope travels in a suitcase very well, too.

Can you help me out? I seen one of your videos that said me should use more salt like more then the normal stated recommended amount can you explain or share the info you found on this. Because many people believe high salt intake causes heart problems? Thank you

How long are the ropes you use is it one size fits all

I gotta show this to my physiotherapist

Do these ropes come in different weights as well? Seems to me, once you've become pretty fluid with them, it might be beneficial to step it up with heavier ropes?

I've got a shoulder issue that stops me from doing Indian clubs, which I enjoyed for many years. Rope flow might be a very good substitute.

Do you still use clubs & mace? Clubs & mace seem to piss off my right side shoulder down to the hand. Gripping and swinging the clubs seem to cripple my shoulder & hand in a way that simply lifting weights doesn’t. Maybe a rope is better for me. Even 1# wood clubs piss off my hand/elbow/shoulder.

Staff training does simmilar, or rope weapons from gung fu

How long should a rope be for someone who is 6'4" ?

Why not do skipping as well?
