The Gallop "cut-back" transition
Quadrupedal patterns & conditioning
•
44s
THE WHAT:
A simple transition for the fundamental 'Gallop' quadrupedal locomotion pattern which allows for an immediate return in the direction from which one came. As it requires a swift, mid-air "cut-back" to execute, the practitioner should already have the patterning & capacity to experience some "air time", expressed in the 'carry' phase of the fundamental Gallop, before practice of this transition can be productive.

The ‘Table Walk’ conditioning pattern
THE WHAT & HOW:
A fundamental, supine locomotion pattern which, whilst following the same coordination as the basic 'Crab walk', emphasises the range of shoulder-extension (i.e. arms behind the body's mid-line) used by keeping the hips as HIGH as possible. For this reason, in its isolated practic... -
Travelling Straddle (forward & back)
THE WHAT & HOW:
A quadrupedal locomotion pattern progressing from the 'Travelling Squat', toward functioning as both a straddle-conditioning (dynamic compression) and straight-arm scapular-strength/SASS (sustaining the weight of the body in the arms) development tool.LEARN MORE (subscriber-only...

Fundamental 'Lizard-crawl' progressions
THE WHAT & HOW:
The 'lizard crawl' is a quadrupedal locomotion pattern which develops understanding of movement through space as close to the floor as possible, WITHOUT touching the body. Before entering these lower regions, however (i.e the 'Low-lizard'), coordination, structural-awareness, stre...
