High-bridge rotation (HBR)
Groundwork: foundational patterns & conditioning
•
5m 37s
THE WHAT:
A progressive mobility form developing global extension and (other than 'Posting') a rotational pattern which facilitates seamless entrance & exit from a back-bridge position.
As with its shorter brother, the 'Low-bridge rotation', this intrinsic rotational quality opens up immediate connections with other squat-based movements which share it, such as the fundamental 'Role' (in connection with it is frequently expressed in the game of Capoeira) and the bipedally-dominant 'Low-gait spin'.

THE WHAT:
The 'low bridge' is a context which has the dual benefit of developing mobility in the anterior chain, as well opening up movement possibilities. As the lumbar spine is also in a much more neutral position than in a high-bridge, for example, it can still be practiced even by those with ... -
'Back-switch' variations
THE WHAT:
The 'back-switch' is a basic arm transition which switches from side-to-side through a reverse-support position. It is ultimately plugged into floor-communication sequences as a transition which takes the body from a quadrupedally prone position (belly facing floor) through supine and b... -
'Scorpion Tail' (mobility & patterning)
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 w...
