Insist on gcod form, i.e., exactly as described, and with energy in each
movement.

Increase the number of times esch exercise is perfcrmed, and the capaci-
ties of the individuals develop.

Sustained effort withcut rest or pause between exercises must be main-
tained. Each exercise must be thoroughly learned before going on to the
next cone. When the drill is memorized, then all the exercises should be
dene without stepping.

The class must master "unit a" before progressing to "unit b" and like-
wise "units a" and "b! before progressing toa "unit cl",

To master "unit a" geans that the class is able to do better than the
minimum set for each exercise before "unit b" is begun. Continue to in
crease the number cf times in "unit a" as "unit bl! is added. The same
procedure is to,be followed in adding "unit c".

Demonstrate each exercise before asking the class to do it. Correct
demonstraticn is more valuable than a lengthy explanation.

Give commands clearly and concisely. The tone of voice can help
materially in stimulating the class to action.

Observe the class trom all angles, commenting cn the good performance,
correcting the faulty one. Urge all to better performance.

Encourage the improvement of performance by individual practice at home,
