Abstract

A bar tapping tool for use during a tap swing drill includes a plurality of bristles adjacent one another and extending horizontally so as to signal when the gymnast should begin her bodily shape change while keeping a safe distance from lower bar. The bar tapping tool has bristles of different lengths extending horizontally so that an athlete swinging on the upper bar can at first swing at a farther distance away from the lower bar and then later, when more experienced, swing at a closer distance away from the lower bar.
