90-90 exploration
Floor-contact sequences & improvisation contexts
•
1m 5s
THE WHAT:
An “open” context, insomuch that the practitioner is free to explore all 90-90 patterns available to them in a programmed space/time. The objective here is to begin finding, understanding, and expressing the interconnections between the various isolated 90-90 contexts, both to establish them as usable body of seated/floor-contact vocabulary as well as ultimately developing proficiency to use them in a directed manner for travelling in & through space.
Further, it is an opportunity to “revise” all patterns which have been so far learnt, ensuring they are USABLE in application, rather than existing simply as isolated exercises. The key rule to be observed here is simple: do NOT stop moving throughout. Think “on the go”, and observe & direct the pattern which come to surface.

Fundamental floor-sequence 1
THE WHAT:
A very basic sequence which brings together fundamental patterns to begin entering, moving in contact with, transitioning through, and exiting the floor. The incorporation of the ‘pendulum/neck-roll’ here introduces their potential to be used as an “end-tying” return in floorwork (i.e. ... -
The Undercut: Closed-chain Sequences 1
THE WHAT:
The ‘Undercut’ transition allows for the transitioning of the body from an “over-floor”, quadrupedal position (on the hands & feet), to entering the floor into full contact. In all of these sequences, the rotational ‘Role’ is the quadrupedal pattern of choice with which to begin, tying ... -
Role -> 'Scorpion' -> 'Undercut' -> '...
THE WHAT:
A quadrupedal-to-floor-entrance-&-back-again locomotion sequence. It brings together the 'half-Role to Scorpion-tail' integration leading directly into the 'Undercut' transition to enter the floor, then exiting through the 'Box-turn' pattern leading seamlessly into the fundamental 'Role...
