500 of you. I still find that completely mad. 🥹

Six months ago it was just little old me in the garden, struggling with the basic bounce and remembering to breathe. 😂 Now, I’m skipping most days, trying new things, taking my rope on holiday, and somehow I’ve gained a whole bunch of amazing skip buddies from different corners of the world.

This six month journey has been full of wins, fails, and sweaty, out-of-breath moments, but most importantly, also full of joy. ❤️

Thank you for being here and watching me jump for joy. 🥹🪢

Let me know when you joined the journey and which reel made you hit follow. 👀 I’m genuinely curious. 😂

Pretty sure I made history this week… As the first woman in my bloodline to do 15 double unders in a row. ✨

On week four of my skip journey, landing one felt like a miracle. Now, double digits. Feeling proud 🥹.

I’m not special - you don’t need to be overly sporty to get here too. You just need a rope, patience and consistency, and that’s genuinely it.

Tip if you’re starting out: lean forward slightly in the air, arms tight, and don’t forget to breathe. That’s what helped me.

This is 100% my win of the week.❤️ What’s your highlight this week?

POV: Skipping is me-time… but mum life doesn’t pause. 🫠

A ten-minute workout. That’s all I was hoping for… but mum life had other plans.

Plans don’t always work out, but at least every workout still counts. 💪

If you’re a parent trying to get fit at home, this is often what it looks like: chaotic, interrupted, but still worth it.
Follow along for more real-life jump rope content that doesn’t “skip” reality or pretend that life is quiet.

Hands up if you can relate. 🙋🏼‍♀️

It’s strange how quickly you go from taking movement for granted to realising how much you miss it. 😢

I discovered jump rope this year. It’a how I move, clear my head and feel like me, so stepping back has been harder than I expected. This pause has taught me to slow down, listen to my body and rest, even when I’d much rather be moving. Recovery is quiet work. ❤️

If you’re injured or pausing something you love too, sending you patience and only good wishes. 🫶

In the meantime, I also need book recommendations to tide me over. What should I read next? 😂

Less than 3 months left of 2026.

Lock in now and by 2027 you could be fitter, stronger, more resilient and more coordinated. Skipping without tripping? Never guaranteed. 😂

I’m currently benched with an injury, so I’m cheering from the sidelines. You go first, I’ll catch up. 💛

What’s one thing you want to achieve before 2027? Tell me below 👇

Some days, skipping feels easy.
And some days, it feels very, very hard. 😭

On those hard days, film it. Then watch it back.

Because seeing yourself do hard things is a reminder of what you’re capable of. You are so much stronger than you think.

Also sad but true: I’m still on an injury skip ban, so looking back is all I can do right now. 😂🪢

Your turn… show me what you’re working on. Tag me in your reels or drop a photo in the comments. 👇

To everyone heading to the last Backstreet Boys concerts in Duesseldorf… have the BEST time! 🪩🎶

Just remember: warming up is key. 😂

Stay safe. Skip responsibly. 🪢

Blame the Backstreet Boys. 🎤

I had the once-in-a-lifetime tickets. I had a few days to get hyped. I had @jennyjustjump BSB combo to learn.

What I didn’t have? Timing. Or skipper’s luck. 🍀
Instead of nailing her combo, I went off-beat and my calf clocked out.

Did I still go to the concert? Of course I did. Priorities: questionable. Commitment: unwavering.

Would you have called it quits or shown up on crutches anyway? 👇

Also, I’m injured and in need of cheering up. Tell me your fav BSB song below. 🎶

Still thinking about sunnier days when I was skipping daily… ☀️. So here‘s a throwback to Greece where my holiday brain had two very different priorities:

🫓 One half wanted a pita and a nap
🪢 The other packed ropes and had no mercy 😂

Honestly, I miss it. 💔

Anyone heading off on holiday soon? Or anyone else just need of a nap? 🙋🏼‍♀️

Skip ban, day 11.
Doctor said rest. My rope and I are not coping well. Can you tell I miss it? 🪢

Here are five coping mechanisms in 30 seconds for anyone struggling with exercise or skipping withdrawal.
Tell me in the comments which one is your fave. 💭

Throwback to last month, in the sun, with a fully functioning leg 🌞

People ask what’s on my playlist when I’m in the zone. Today, I can reveal what gets me there 🎧

Usually high bpm tracks, mixed with the live soundtrack of motherhood 😂

@marnicolaou, it’s almost Combo Wed worthy, even if it’s not current.

Life is loud and chaotic and I wouldn’t swap it. I’d just like a volume button now and then.

Parents, who can relate?
