'Step-behind' to cross & uncross sequences & impro 1
Locomotion integration, sequencing & improvisation
•
35s
THE WHAT:
Two locomotion sequence commencing with the bipedal/semi-quadrupedal 'Step-behind to cross & uncross' integration, and leading into more puree quadrupedal locomotion forms (e.g. 'Lizard' and 'Bear' crawl). They are used simply to demonstrate the integrative potential of patterns initially studied within two separate worlds (i.e. bipedal & quadrupedal locomotion), but ultimately coming together also with aspects of 'Groundwork' too in an expression of 'Floor-communication'.
Of utmost importance in execution is that, regardless of how many "pieces" are integrated into a sequence, the individual FORMS and TRANSITIONS are clear, succinct, well-articulated and blending SEAMLESSLY from & into the movement before/after.

THE WHAT & HOW:
Now that you have developed some fundamental quadrupedal patterns, it's time to start "driving the car" (a term taken from Ido Portal). The key rules here: DO NOT STOP MOVING - think "on the move" - and use ONLY the patterns outlined.This more "open" context allows you to start ...

Lizard to (bent-arm) Scorpion, Role exit
THE WHAT:
A simple integration allowing a convenient exit from the 'Lizard craw' into the 'Role' through a bent-arm 'Scorpion tail' transition. From a more general perspective, it offers a way to transition from close-floor (Lizard) into the world of squat/'high-gait' quadrupedal locomotion (Role... -
'Lizard' locomotion sequence/impro 1
THE WHAT:
An integrated quadrupedal locomotion 'groundwork' sequence for extension or leading to improvisation. Whilst this sequence can be practice to itself, this context is presented more as an invitation for the practitioner to take a self-directing role in their 'Floor-communication' explora...
