The designs are thought out for particular exercises such as:

Straight line:

• Working on balance and posture
• Learning straight-line movements (forward, backward)
• Develop concentration and body control

Examples of exercises:
- Balance walk: walk with feet together or on tiptoe without stepping out of line.
- Martial displacement: make chassé steps or guard displacements while staying on the line.
- Precision running: run slowly while following the line perfectly.
- Line technique: move forward with a simple sequence (mae geri, front kick with each step).

Snaking line:

• Develop agility, coordination and flexibility
• Learn to manage changes of direction
• Strengthen attention and rhythm

Examples of exercises:
- Slalom: run or walk along the curve without leaving the layout.
- Cross/lateral steps: move sideways following the curves.
- Follow the instructor: the child follows a coach who demonstrates a technique to be performed at each curve.
- Reaction work: move forward along the line and, at each curve, respond to an instruction (crouch, turn, clap, etc.).).

Staggered circles:

• To work on coordination, support and fine motor skills
• Learn to jump, stabilize, and link movements
• Stimulate anticipation and play

Examples of exercises:
- Jumps in circles: jumping with joint or alternating feet from circle to circle.
- Instruction game: jump into a blue circle = clap hands; red circle = punch the air.
- Dynamic movement: touch each circle with a different foot, in rhythm.
- Relay race: as a team, move from circle to circle to touch a wall and back.
