About Center - Center through Transitions
None
- 00:00
- One of the ideas we've been talking about, uh,
- 00:03
- a lot is this idea that you should move from your center,
- 00:05
- which I'm gonna say is about one inch above your pubic bone.
- 00:09
- And, uh, so then I'll drop my weight down
- 00:13
- and my center down in some sense, I'll lengthen up,
- 00:16
- drop down, energize the
- 00:21
- body, lengthening away.
- 00:23
- And so then we might say
- 00:28
- that's the arm reaching from the center.
- 00:35
- But, uh, right now the idea we're playing with
- 00:43
- is that not only does the arm reach from the center,
- 00:46
- but that right here in the transition, uh,
- 00:48
- the wrong would be this, right?
- 00:51
- So here, even this is synchronized the arm in the body,
- 00:55
- but it's not driven by the center.
- 01:13
- And so here I'm thinking about the way this
- 01:16
- and this
- 01:21
- are connected.
- 01:33
- And so then there's this choice that this doesn't move
- 01:35
- with it, without this or vice versa.
- 01:42
- And the question is, but how?
- 01:44
- And so first I'd say, uh, lengthen up,
- 01:49
- center down, hips down,
- 01:51
- you can even hold here,
- 02:01
- And then when you, especially here, when you get
- 02:03
- to this transition, be conscious,
- 02:15
- how's the body related
- 02:20
- to that
- 02:25
- beginning?
