The Fundamental ’90-90’ (static patterns)
Floor-contact locomotion & transitions
•
3m 26s
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 transitional potential is offered both within its own level (seated) and those above & below it (kneeling/squat & floor-contact, respectively).

Seated pike to prone (& back)
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 withi...

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... -
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...
