In this course, we'll teach you the basics of forehand or sidearm throw.

Let's go through the basic forehand grips. Here we talk about the most common grip called stack grip. Avery Jenkins shows you how you add this grip to your selection and what key points you need to consider.

Lets make this a habit. We drill the way to automate the motion of gripping the disc with a stack grip.

Next, we talk about the split grip. Not a very commonly taught grip but very useful when the shot requires accuracy and touch on short range.

Again we make this a habit. Drilling the motion of acquiring the split grip.

The max distance grip choice of Avery Jenkins. Here AJ teaches you on how to take power grip when throwing forehand shots.

As always, we drill the action of taking the power grip. Make it a habit!

Lets talk about the way to accomodate your grip. Every hand is a bit different, every disc is a bit different. We need to find a way to accomodate our grip and here we show you how.

Building the foundation is the first step in building a house. Learning to stand correctly is the foundation of a successful forehand throw. In this lesson, we learn how to stand and feel comfortable in a standstill position.

We are building the stance for a flat and straight, neutral flying throw. We will talk about angles later but first, we need to find a neutral way of throwing the disc.

Now lets drill the way to find a proper stanstill stance. Make it a habit for future disc golf rounds, so you don't need to think that much when you are playing.

Talking about the energy production when throwing forehand from standstill position. We find the correct way to push or transfer our weight from the back leg to the front leg.

Drilling the motion of pushing for power production.

Next in line, we have the hips. We can use hips to produce power with the big muscles. We learn what we do when using our hips.

Does it look familiar? This same motion can be seen in the Backhand Standstill -course. The swinging motion is the key in both ways of throwing. Here we drill and teach our body to rotate and swing the right way and activate the right muscle groups.

Talking about the next block in our chain of motions - the torso. Smooth natural rotation instead of powering and forcing the rotation. The goal is to have a fluid and effortless rotation of the torso.

Separating the upper and lower body. Most crucial movement when we want to have effortless power production. We talk about the timing and swiveling our upper and lower part not in unison, but slightly separate. This takes time to learn so be patient with this and try to find a good timing and fluid motion.

Drilling the motion of torso rotation and swivel, and helping the separation with this exercise.
