Negativa leg-switch (NLS) & Role
Groundwork: fundamental integrations
•
4m 7s
THE WHAT:
A simple switching of the forward-leg in the upright phase of the 'Negativa' form. Note that all transitioning from side-to-side and movement through space in the 'NLS' takes place "sitting" on the heel with weight through the BALL of the foot, just as in the pivoting transition of the 'Box-turn' and various other unilateral low-gait forms. Ensure the weight of the body is kept forward/over this support, and NOT backward in the hands with the foot flat on the ground.

Role to back-switch
THE WHAT & HOW:
An integrated transition & groundwork pattern between the fundamental 'Role' & 'Back-switch' variations. Whilst the 'back-switch' continues to serve its function as a simple way to transition from one upper-body support to the other (i.e. arm-to-arm), connecting it with the 'Role'... -
'Role' to front-side (FS) 'Corta-capim'
THE WHAT:
A fundamental integration between the rotational 'groundwork' locomotion form 'Role', and the rotational, low-gait transition 'Corta-capim'. As always with the 'CC', a main point of focus is ensuring that the swinging leg is kept as STRAIGHT and EXTENDED as possible, ALL the way around ... -

THE WHAT:
A most fundamental integration between the 'Role' and the ‘High/Low-bridge rotation’ (H/LBR) progressions which serve both for ongoing capacity-development and conditioning, further to deepening understanding of these foundational ‘Groundwork’ forms.The main learning objective is awar...
