Warmup Routine
These warmups can help get the most out of your rehearsal by each building on their predecessors. This creates a gradual warmup session but more importantly it refreshes previous ideas and then uses them to point to the next step. These are learning tools as well as workouts.

Below is each exercise divided into three separate skill levels which lets you find the right amount of difficulty for the application. Also included are an on field warmup, a combination study, endurance pieces, and a warmdown. Feel free to publically use any that you desire (without changing credits please).
