Spine & scapular ‘circles’ integration
Spine & scap: 'local' & integrated patterns
•
6m 43s
THE WHAT
A developmental project which ultimately brings together 4 'circles' of the spine & scapulae into harmonious integration. The isolated practice of each of the 'circles' (2x scapular, 1x thoracic & 1x 'pelvic') initially serves an incredibly valuable THEREPEUTIC role, teaching the practitioner fundamental patterns which ultimately empower them to both treat & mitigate superficial pains in the spine & scapular regions.
This is due firstly to the "nourishment" provided by the movements themselves as they perform an intrinsic "massage" to their specific regions. Secondly, however, they also develop fundamental MOTOR-CONROL in the process of practice, returning LIFE into these areas which can become either "de-moved" from work & lifestyle habits, "blocked" with tension from practice habits, or a mixture of both.

Integrated spinal ‘rolling’ and ‘circ...
THE WHAT
An open-form, 'free-association' (FA) context which expresses a vocabulary of localised 'rolling' and 'circles' patterns already learnt in previous projects of practice. A recap of the fundamental "pieces":
‘Rolling’:
- Rib-cage roll, sagittal (forward & back)
- Rib-cage roll, frontal (l... -
‘Torso-rotations’ spinal-segmentation
THE WHAT
A novel spinal-segmentation drill expressing rotation of the torso in the transverse-plane whilst hinging at the level of the waist & the HEAD remains fixed in space. It is essentially the inversion of the 'Transverse neck-rotation' in which the head rotates whilst the TORSO remains fixe... -
Transverse spinal-segmentation
THE WHAT
A range & motor-control development context focused on transverse-rotation of the pelvis, and the torso. As with other spinal 'segmentation' drills, end-range isometrics are used in a 'dropset' structure to increase & "mark" those end-ranges. Ultimately, beyond just spinal-mobilisation &...
