  • Candace Cameron Bure is embarking on a new fitness journey with jump rope.

  • “I really want to learn steps and get good! Coordination is tough for me at times,” the actress said in a new Instagram video.

  • She also shared bloopers of her practicing—reminding us it’s OK to mess up and learn from mistakes.


Candace Cameron Bure is jumping into a new fitness journey, and she’s sharing her progress with the world. In a Jan. 19 Instagram post, the 44-year-old showed off her jump rope skills—they’re pretty impressive, and she plans on getting better.

“I’m starting a jump rope journey today,” she captioned the gallery of videos. “I’ve been jumping basic rope for about 5 years for cardio with Kira [Stokes]. However, I really want to learn steps and get good! Coordination is tough for me at times.”

In the first clip, she successfully skipped rope, rhythmically bouncing from her back foot to front. “This first video may seem so simple,” she added. “But watch in the other slides what it took to figure it out.” The subsequent clips show the actress taking it slow, practicing the footwork without the rope, and stumbling here and there.

On Instagram Stories, she practiced more moves—crossovers and rotating her arms in front—and yes, her feet caught the rope a few times. “Practice makes progress,” she wrote on the clip. “And sometimes it hurts a little.” Then she tried combining both of her new steps—crossovers, and what her trainer Stokes called “fancy feet”—and there was more tripping. “Keep trying!” she wrote.

Fans and followers were inspired by her agility and determination. “You’re great!! Clearly a fast learner,” one commented. “JUMP IT UP👏🏼👏🏼 Love how you worked on ‘fancy feet’ without the rope first,” her trainer Stokes wrote. “Like everything in fitness (as you know and we talk about) progression is KEY. Proud of you!!”

“This inspired me!!! So fun!!” another added. “Next up double unders!!! How many can you get?”

If you saw Candace’s recent dance TikTok that she did with her daughter Natasha Bure, you’re probably not surprised by her ability to pick up the steps so quickly. The pair filmed some pretty complex choreography, and Candace was praised for her “cool mom” dance moves. But even then, she shared their bloopers—reminding us it’s OK to mess up and learn from mistakes.
