(#80) Kenzie Christensen - Growing the Next Generation of Jumpers, Transitioning to Collegiate Jumping, and Performing with Flight Crew

Kenzie Christensen is a long time competitive jump roper and member of Flight Crew Jump Rope Team

We get into loads of details about growing up in the competitive jump rope world, which was super fun! If you’re not a competitive jumper just a heads up that there will be some specific references, but you’ll still really dig this episode.

We talk about so much in our conversation, including growing up in the sport of jump rope, how Kenzie’s competitive training improved over the years, why speed step isn’t as popular as freestyle, and the growth of jump rope organizations over the last decade or so.

We also get into the jump rope club Kenzie started in College, how that club put on workshops for the local elementary school, the differences between coaching youth competitive jumpers versus adult recreational jumpers, and a whole lot more!
