Low wall-work 3: Squat-locomotion patterns
Over-wall work
•
1m 17s
THE WHAT:
Foundational contexts for low-position locomotion, atop a wall. Now moving through the squat form, attention shifts more toward the innate quality of weight-transfer between the two feet in locomotion. Immediate congruences in pattern can be observed here with those also performed in 'floor-communication'. The only difference is the height deficit provided by each side of the wall, and, when a high wall is used, the added stressor of height-exposure.
Ultimately, as with floor-based locomotion, we want to observe a continual sensation of motion passing through the body with clear trajectories of motion being followed. Never hesitating, never stopping, keeping the water flowing. This effort continues into any 'free-association' work which incorporates the patterns presented.

Progressive 180° wall-vault turn
THE WHAT & HOW:
A 180-degree vault turn on a wall context designed to develop coordination, dexterity, and spatial control in an applied environmental setting. The practitioner runs into a low wall, jumps in, and reorganises the body in space to complete a controlled 180-degree rotation, returnin... -
