INTRODUCTION
Initially, get accustomed to the feel and bounce of the trampoline. You should focus on your body position and you should practice each of the basic bounces (see below) until you can perform each with ease and control.

To brake a bounce on your trampoline, flex your knees sharply before your feet come into contact with the mat. This technique should be practiced as you are learning each of the basic bounces. The skill of braking should be used whenever you lose balance or control of your jump.

Always learn the simplest bounce first and be consistent with the control of your bounce before moving on to more difficult and advanced bounces. A controlled bounce is when your take off point and landing point is the same spot on the mat. If you move up to the next bounce without first mastering the previous, you increase your risk of injury.

Do not bounce on the trampoline for extended periods of time, as fatigue can increase your risk of injury. Bounce only for a brief period of time. Only one person should bounce on the trampoline at any time.

Do not bounce recklessly on the trampoline as this will increase your risk of injury. The key to safety and having fun on the trampoline is control and mastering the various bounces. Never try to out-bounce another bouncer in terms of height! Never use the trampoline without supervision.
