‘Down/up’ sagittal spinal-wave
Spine & scapulae: 'Global' patterns
•
5m 8s
THE WHAT
A fundamental 'spinal-wave' performed in the sagittal-plane. The initiation of this pattern is from 'down' (i.e. of the legs in connection with the ground) and transmitted sequentially 'up' the spine to the head-top. From here, it endlessly feeds back into itself in a CYCLICAL pattern with no stopping or hesitation its the transmission.
The sagittal 'spinal-wave' serves as an initial introduction to the concept of 'GLOBAL' spinal-patterns, i.e. those which express the ENTIRE spine as a harmonic, sequential whole, as compared to more 'LOCAL(ised)' patterns which focus on "rolling" and circular patterns "isolated" to specific spinal-regions (i.e. lumbar, thoracic & cervical).

‘Hinging’ down/up wave
THE WHAT
A novel variation of the ‘Down/up sagittal spinal-wave’ incorporating a progressive hip-hinge & deepening of the torso toward the horizontal plane. As an effect there is SIGNIFICANTLY greater loading along the posterior-spine felt as an unavoidable fatigue, lending an innate conditioning... -
‘Up/down’ sagittal spinal-wave
THE WHAT
A fundamental 'spinal-wave' performed in the sagittal-plane. The initiation of this pattern is from 'up' (i.e. leading with the HEAD) and transmitted sequentially 'down' the spine to the spine into the ground. From here, it endlessly feeds back into itself in a CYCLICAL pattern with no s... -
‘Up’ & ‘Down’ spinal-wave switching
THE WHAT
The foundational 'Down/up' and 'Up/down' sagittal spinal-waves are now brought together in an integrated context which expresses switching between the two directions. The transition initially offers a minor coordinative motor-task requiring pre-"planning" of the switch and allowing time ...
