Rail squat-turn transition
Low rail-work
•
52s
THE WHAT:
Foundational turning in the squat position on a rail, without assistance from the hands. This transition both requires & develops sensitivity toward haptic feedback from the feet to "push/pull" them against the rail to facilitate the turn, and structural awareness in reaching a FULLY sagittal position from the frontal, and back again.

THE WHAT:
Low-position locomotion variations on the rail, characterised by their movement through the frontal-squat position. Resource contents:0:05 - Squat 'lateral-shimmy'
0:51 - Frontal-squat 'cross-step'

THE WHAT:
The 'Cat-walk' is a foundational quadrupedal rail-walk pattern characterised by it's "box" form zero-point - like the floor-based 'bear crawl', when holding isometrically and in locomotion the limbs move about a 90-degree angle to the horizontal torso, the knees never entering deep-flex... -

THE WHAT:
Developmental projects for 'rail-walking' proceed to exploring gait 'levels in space', beginning with a BIPEDAL sagittal squat-walk reminiscent of the 'Duck walk' and capacities developed in other 'low/squat-gait' contexts. From a physics perspective, this form is actually easier to bal...
