Low-gait 'meia lua'
Fundamental squat & hip-mobility development
•
1m 21s
THE WHAT:
At the lowest-of-the-'low-gait' contexts sits the maximally-compressed squat form, from which any lower in space must be a transition into the floor. 'Low-gait balance contexts' (namely unilateral), then, carry both the valuable experience of unilateral lower-body practice context as well as the stresses of maximal knee-compression, string demands on ankle-stability and loaded extension of the toes.

Travelling 'squat-bounce'
THE WHAT:
A simple & accessible squat context which expresses & develops the elasticity of the lower-body articulations and their intrinsic connection to the upper-body. As it travels through space it is fundamentally a LOCOMOTION-conditioning context, although, as a pattern in and of itself, it ... -
The Duck Walk

THE WHAT & HOW:
