‘Corta-capim’ transition (internal circle)
'Bipedal' locomotion: foundational patterns & conditioning
•
54s
THE WHAT:
In translation “cutting the grass” - a basic momentum-generating squat pattern which, when integrated within locomotion & 'groundwork' contexts as a transition, also transmits kinetic energy from the previous movement into the rotational swing of the leg.
From here it can either dull or magnify this energy, its innately circular-nature fitting well with locomotive patterns such as the 'Role', transitions such as 'Bridge rotations', and therefore finds a place largely within floor-communication subjects of 'groundwork' and '(bipedal) locomotion'.

The 'Fisherman squat'
THE WHAT:
The 'fisherman squat' is a fundamental 'zero-point' providing high transitional movement potential through & between the worlds of standing, kneeling, sitting, and floor-contact. It is also a common departure & arrival position for dynamic floor-contact movements, such as rolling, and i... -

THE WHAT:
The ’90-90’ is essentially a common floor-seated position in which the bodyweight is shifted more unilaterally into one side of the hips, the shins forming a more-or-less square form at a 90-degrees angle.When available, it serves as a fundamental ‘zero-point’ through which high trans...

The 'Travelling A & B'
THE WHAT & HOW:
The 'Travelling A & B' makes use of experience built with static '90-90' variations & transitions, connecting them in cyclical patterns to take the body locomoting through space in floor-contact. As such, they play between the worlds of seated (floor-contact) and kneeling, the lat...
