'Scorpion Tail' (mobility & patterning)
'Bridging' & global-extension
•
4m 54s
THE WHAT:
The 'Prone tail-reach' & 'Scorpion tail' are isolated movements which will assist in the development of hip-flexors & trunk rotational mobility and range. It also develops the patterning for what is ultimately a TRANSITIONAL tool which can be incorporated into locomotion and low-floor work in sequences and improvisation. Further, it provides a context for proprioceptive mapping of the legs/feet in space.

The 'Handstand-7' (HS-7)
THE WHAT & HOW:
The 'Handstand-7' is a fundamental structural awareness drill which facilitates learning the sensation of a "stacked" structure, i.e. having the hips stacked over the shoulders stacked over the hands in an alignment which results in supporting your centre of mass (around the pelvi... -
Wall-facing tuck-handstand
THE WHAT:
The wall-facing tuck-handstand can play a double role in practice. Firstly, in the context of HANDSTAND practice, it can be used to explore to pattern the structure & form of the tuck HS, build proprioception of the legs & accustom to the stresses particular to the form.Secondly, wall...

Back-bridging development
THE WHAT:
A range of back-bridging development drills for improving range and mobility in global spinal-extension (also strongly affecting overhead shoulder-flexion range), also incorporating expression of TRANSVERSE ROTATION in the ‘Wall bridge-rotations’ and ‘Low-bridge wall-rotation’ forms. As...
