'Bipedal' locomotion: foundational patterns & conditioning
•
3m 23s
THE WHAT:
The 'fisherman squat' is a fundamental 'zero-point' providing high transitional movement potential through & between the worlds of standing, kneeling, sitting, and floor-contact. It is also a common departure & arrival position for dynamic floor-contact movements, such as rolling, and integrates fittingly with other floor-communication systems which enter & exit the floor through low-gait, squat, and seated.

THE WHAT:
The ’90-90’ is essentially a common floor-seated position in which the bodyweight is shifted more unilaterally into one side of the hips, the shins forming a more-or-less square form at a 90-degrees angle.When available, it serves as a fundamental ‘zero-point’ through which high trans...

The 'Travelling A & B'
THE WHAT & HOW:
The 'Travelling A & B' makes use of experience built with static '90-90' variations & transitions, connecting them in cyclical patterns to take the body locomoting through space in floor-contact. As such, they play between the worlds of seated (floor-contact) and kneeling, the lat... -
Basic 'low-gait' sequence
THE WHAT & HOW:
A developmental sequence (increasing 'counts') to accustom & condition to the ranges of bipedally abducted 'low-gait', the world between standing, and floor-entrance.As a range commonly avoided simply because of its discomfort, making it more familiar (i.e. patterning, developin...
