Seated pike to prone (& back)
Floor-entrance (FEN) & floor-exit (FEX) patterns
•
1m 12s
THE WHAT & HOW:
A charming little context which "maps" both the anterior & posterior "circle of the hips", or, rather, the full-circle. It comes from the perspective of "circles of the body", by which we can use them, just like wheels, to move both in and through space.
In oder to place it within a body of patterns, and not just an isolated trick, it integrates perfectly with '90-90' vocabulary. In this case it can be preceded by '90-90 to prone', using the momentum of the EXIT from prone position to go DIRECTLY into & pass through 'seated pike', performing the rotation as shown, and then finishing back in 90-90.

The wall "Undercut"
THE WHAT:
A 2-point, ipsilateral (i.e. same side hand/foot) wall-supported transition pattern which practices “threading” the body under and through itself. A significant part of this practice, then, is developing the STRUCTURAL AWARENESS to support one’s structure with only two points of support... -
The 'Undercut' (floor)
THE WHAT:
A 2-point, ipsilateral (i.e. same side hand/foot) quadrupedal-to-floor transition pattern which practices “threading” the body under and through itself for direct access to the world of ‘floorwork’. Likewise, it can be reversed, albeit in not as efficient a manner, to return back to qua... -
Prone quadruped to lateral floor-roll
THE WHAT:
A transitional pattern facilitating movement in and out of the floor from a quadruped position to floor-contact. The main work here is developing the structural awareness & patterning (notably the “folding” of the arm to bring the body closer to and enter the floor and coordination of t...
