The ‘AT-AT walker’
'Bipedal' locomotion: foundational patterns & conditioning
•
2m 0s
THE WHAT:
A "high-gait" quadrupedal locomotion pattern inspired by the giant machine ‘AT-AT's’ of the Star Wars universe. Whilst restrictions in posterior-chain mobility can be the main challenge in adhering to the one and only rule in this context, keeping the backside as HIGH as possible throughout, it will in turn help to develop the USABILITY of that front-folding range through a dynamic, applied movement context (i.e. moving through space).

Arm-initiated 'gait-pivots' (4-levels)
THE WHAT:
A bipedal-locomotion concept teaching use of the arms in generating rotational-momentum in 4 'gait-leves': 'standing', 'high', 'mid', and 'low'. The principle is essentially of "weight-shifting" the body's vertical-axis to a unilateral one over the forward-foot, establishing it as a 'pi... -
Walking front & back sagittal-kicks
THE WHAT:
A bipedal, locomotion-conditioning context which expresses & develops the elasticity of the legs (both posterior & anterior-chain) through the practice of walking kicks, in the sagittal plane.___________________
