9 Movement Combination
COURSE: the-magic-of-intra-body
FOCUS: This lesson focuses on practicing movement combinations with an emphasis on moving as low as possible, controlling tension in the core, and incorporating torsions into steps. The goal is to achieve slow, controlled intra-body movement while exploring rotations and spatial awareness.
TIP & TRICKS:
- Take steps underneath you to move as low as possible.
- Let the arms flow in a very relaxed manner.
- Imagine moving inside peanut butter to slow down and achieve the movement.
- Play with going sideways by stepping with opposite shoulder rotation.
- Start movements from the idea of torsion leading into the step.
- Relax the shoulders into the movement while maintaining core tension.
REMEMBER:
- Control the tension in the movement without stopping or overthinking muscle mechanics.
- Maintain the flow of movement while incorporating torsions.
- Feel all the tensions in the core to support intra-body movement.
- Take your time to work through shapes and find your space.
- Every step should be created with a torsion to enhance rotation.
- Controlling the body involves slow pacing and spatial awareness.
