Here is a practice routine; chasse right, alternate jabs five times to the corner starting with the left arm, chasse left, alternate jabs five times to the corner starting with the right arm, jump rope for four counts, knee left, jab right, knee right, jab left, lean left kick right four times, lean right kick left four times.
