Fundamental floor-sequence 1
Floor-contact sequences & improvisation contexts
•
2m 22s
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 ‘Pendulum’ roll which allows the body to continue back in the direction it came), or simply as an aesthetic transition in the continuation of the lateral roll (‘neck-roll’).

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... -
'Driving' the lateral floor-roll
THE WHAT:
Putting the many pieces of fewer concepts together in a single context – the ‘driving’ of the lateral floor-roll (in ALL its variations) is a simple context which requires both familiarity & proficiency not only with the rolls in themselves, but with the TRANSITIONS (i.e. ‘Pendulum’ and...
